The words of the Pledge of Allegiance, adopted by Congress on June 22, 1942, are familiar to most Americans — including those on the left who neither believe the words of the Pledge nor do they fpractice the intent of those words. 

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.

Here's the timeline of the Pledge, as it's now recited:

• September 9, 1892: The pledge is introduced in the magazine The Youth’s Companion as part of a program to celebrate Columbus Day in schools across the country. The words were written by Francis Bellamy, a Baptist minister and Christian Socialist, and read: "I pledge allegiance to my Flag and to the Republic for which it stands: one Nation indivisible with Liberty and Justice for all.”
• June 14, 1923: The National Flag Conference, sponsored by the American Legion and the Daughters of the American Revolution, changes "my Flag" to "the flag of the United States of America," in part to ensure that recent immigrants had the US flag in mind and not the flag of their nation of origin.
• June 22, 1942: Congress formally recognizes the pledge and includes it in the federal Flag Code.
• December 22, 1942: Congress changes the official manner of delivery to placing the right hand over the heart; the previous stance, one hand extended from the body, was too reminiscent of the Nazi salute. The "Bellamy Salute" had directed that "the right hand is extended gracefully, palm upward, toward the Flag.”
• June 14, 1954: President Eisenhower approves the congressional resolution adding the words "under God" to the pledge. The Knights of Columbus and other groups, as well as Eisenhower himself, had lobbied for the change.

Welp, turns out that the Pledge as we know it just won't get the job done anymore. 

Why not? Because, according to left-wing loon and independent filmmaker Michael Moore, the Pledge is neither tolerant nor was it written in the name of unity — as Moore and other radical leftists see it.

So of course Moore — whose knowledge of the U.S. Constitution and its amendments, the historical significance of the Pledge, and everything else about this country that Moore and his comrades despise is beyond unimpressive — took it upon himself to rewrite the Pledge in a manner consistent with the left's agenda: 

I pledge allegiance to the people of the United States of America. And to the democracy for which we all stand: One person, one vote, one nation, part of one world, everyone! A seat at the table! Everyone! A slice of the pie! With liberty and justice, equality, and kindness and the pursuit of happiness for all.

Oh my — where should we start?

First, we pledge allegiance to the flag of America because of what it represents. That should cover it, should it not? Not to Moore, whose "rewrite" suggests the left, if it accumulates enough power, can interpret the Pledge as they see fit at any given time and for any given situation.

Second, as most of us are well aware, America is a constitutional republic, not a democracy, which the left loathes. Hence, Moore's reference to "one person, one vote" pushes for replacing the Electoral College and electoral vote with a popular vote. The left strongly favors a direct popular vote because Democrats know, as do we, that if such a system were in force, large Democrat-dominated cities would in effect elect every president — a Democrat president, of course.

Third, "one nation, part of one world" is another pipe dream of the left.

If the above were a reality, merging the United States into a singular global entity would potentially all but erase our national identity, fundamentally alter our core values, and ultimately dismantle the unique characteristics and freedoms that have historically defined America and contributed to its development and influence on the world stage. Again, everything the left hates.

Oh, I almost forgot: It appears that Mr. Moore forgot to replace "equality" with "equity," given the left's passionate love affair with the latter. What's up with that?

Political commentator Jonathan Turley summed up Moore's hypocritical silliness this way:

 The call for unity is particularly curious from a person who has labeled Republicans as racists and consistently engaged in rage rhetoric. Among his prior unifying, “slice of the pie” declarations was that white people "are not good people" and are inherently dangerous.

The Moore pledge has all of the elements that would unify any gathering on Rodeo Drive. It replaces nationalism with globalism and introduces a pastry-based patriotism.

Indeed.

I'd suggest that Michael Moore stick to filmmaking, and I wouldn't pay a lick of attention to anything this guy does or says — and I suspect neither would you — so maybe he should just calm down and clam up.

P.S. He won't.

The Democrat Party has never been less popular as voters reject their globalist agenda.
