After reading the post about "Heroes" it got me to thinking about this recitation that Red Skelton did in January of 1969.

For all those that remember Red Skelton, I feel that he was one of the greatest people ever...   As a child I loved his show and he was always such a wonderful genuine person and again as a child , I still remember vividly that when he was closing his show he would always end it with saying "God Bless"

In January 1969 Red did this recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance.

For those that believe in the Pledge of Allegiance this will most likely hit home for you... 

If this offends anyone else...too bad...   I am a flag waving patriot and I believe in the Pledge of Allegiance and I think that we as an American people are getting to "politically correct" with this debate over state and religion... 

 I hope this is as enjoyable for you as it is for me.
