After my family and I posted the flag for Veteran's Day a few minutes ago, we started to walk back inside the house. My son Justin, who just turned five, said, "Dad, aren't we going to say the pledge?"
It's never a bad time to Pledge Allegiance to the flag, and an especially good one right after you've posted and saluted it, so we lined back up and I asked him to lead the pledge. So my five year old son led all the way through the Pledge of Allegiance without a bit of help.
It's heartening to see a new generation of patriotic Americans growing up!
"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands: one Nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all."

Hats off to, Justin! You have reason to be very, very proud, Bob!
Justin is smarter and has more character than the average Ivy League liberal. Good job, Mr. Ellis!
