You're Never Patriotic Enough For Some People

Oh, please. The assistant police chief of Miami is being criticized by the always-contentious union head for not covering her heart or saluting the flag during the Pledge of Allegiance. He insinuates it's because of her religion, which one can assume is not Christian. But here's the thing: Under the police department's OWN RULES, she did EXACTLY what is required -- she stood at attention, arms at her sides. That's what she's SUPPOSED to do. And, besides, as I've always said about the Pledge, nobody REALLY says it. They murmur it and fidget. Doesn't mean they don't love the country; it just means that having to stand there and recite the pledge has little to do with actually pledging allegiance. (Miami Herald)
