No clue why the Fort Worth Star-Telegram has a photo of Phil King with the article about Debbie Riddle of Tomball's bill, HB1034, but I did like the example of the 17 year old Jehovah's Witness from Lewisville who was suspended (!!!) for not pledging allegiance to the flag. First off, that people don't realize that not having to say the pledge was decided by the courts years ago and Lewisville ISD still hasn't figured this out? I also question why a 17 year old kid has to bring a note from his parents to say that he doesn't have to say the pledge. At any rate, not only does it seem pretty ridic to alter the pledge to *make it like the US pledge*, which, uh, didn't originally have those words in them anyway, but why alter the pledge AT ALL?
