I pledge null allegiance to his flag
Of the coalated states of America
And to the Republicans for whom it stands
His Nation
Above God
Visibly
Liberating with force
and Justifying all
With fear of what might be
And greed for oil he can seize
Through too much pride in his country
God Bless the United.... Nations!

Author's Note: America has no more claim on God than any other country, so why is his name on our money, the symbol of financial wealth? Why do our Presidents always end their speeches with God Bless America, as if God does not bless other nations? There is more than one nation under God, yet it suggests otherwise in our Pledge Of Allegiance. The flag is a symbolic representation of our nation, but it is not the nation. Nations are made of people, not of the land beneath them or the flags flown over them. All the land of the world is not a nation without people bringing humanity on it. Leaders always claim God on their side when wars are waged, even if Allah is on the other side.
