And more deflection from the republican pledge crowd

Republicans mad they can't spend more time saying Pledge of Allegiance

Said a former Republican congressman, 'Please tell me you have something more important to whine about.'

Republicans are furious that the House Judiciary Committee will not start work by saying the Pledge of Allegiance at the beginning of every meeting — in addition to the daily pledge said by the full House of Representatives.

On Thursday, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) used the committee's organizing meeting to suggest its members repeat the pledge. After noting the "significance and importance" of the panel's work, he said, "I just think it would be nice, if, in the spirit of national unity and national pride, which I know we all aspire to do to a greater extent, that at the beginning of each meeting the chair, or one of the designees of the chair, would have the opportunity to lead us in the Pledge of Allegiance."

Judiciary Chair Jerry Nadler (D-NY) quickly shot down the idea, calling it "unnecessary."

Three things came to mind when I read this piece

Mr. Nadler should have asked the pinhead Gaetz

Did you replace the word "flag" with trump when you recite the allegiance first time everyday when we start our business under your collective treasonous breath along with your fellow insurrectionist that are now whining.........and by the way, your out of order........

1. Now they're just making up stuff to deflect from their own debacle.

They could care less about the pledge of allegiance.
Their only allegiance is to themselves, power and money.

2. I remember back in Grade School we would recite the Pledge of Allegiance on Monday

not everyday

3. We're not paying you guys $174,000 a year to stand around reciting the Pledge multiple times a day.

Are we?

4. Here's a compromise, Matt Goats: Recite your Oath Of Office several times a day.

And listen to the fucking words.

6. Requested "in the spirit of national unity."

I swear, Matt, you just get funnier every time you open your mouth.

In short: Shut up Matt. You're drunk.
