Pro to the question "Should the words "under God" be in the US Pledge of Allegiance?"
Reasoning:
"This abominable ruling [Ninth Circuit ruling in Newdow vs. U.S.] by an imperious court is a slap in the face to all Americans and people of faith. At a moment when national unity should be of the utmost importance, two individuals chose to speak for an entire nation and, in the process, divide this country. There is no place for myopic edicts, especially during this time of national and international uncertainty - clearly neither the events of September 11, nor America's war on terrorism, was weighing on the judge's minds."
