Friday Night

We made it to Savannah. I am sitting on the bed in our hotel room "Residence inn Midtown" and posting from there. Its late and I should probably be going to bed!

Instead I am sitting here typing out thoughts. tomorrow is the beach, and probably a sunburn even if I try to remember the sunblock.

I just sat down and watched this

I don't know about you but the idea of Pledging to serve the President,

even just the office, is very disturbing. To pledge to serve an actual person, who is in that office,

is even more so.

YES, we do pledge to the flag, and in fact I have occasional issues with that when I think about it,

but its representative of our country. Our Armed forces pledge to serve the constitution.

The President is the Commander in Chief, but the Army has not pledged to serve him

Obama has called for a civilian defense force as powerful as our military,

which unlike the military would answer to the office of president.

What is the need for this?

The video was produced to be shown to kids in Utah if I remember reading correctly.

Don't get me wrong, much of what was pledged is not bad stuff, it pretty much follows liberal

ideology and worldview but is mostly harmless in of itself.

Much of it is warm-fuzzy feel good about myself stuff. But throwing in a pledge to

the serve the president? Way Way wrong!

How about the Following pledge?

I pledge to serve Our Father in Heaven first. I pledge to Love my wife as Christ loved the church.

I pledge to raise my children in a manner pleasing to God and to train them up to Walk with Christ.

I pledge to work to preserve the principles of Liberty set forth

in Our Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.
