Eugene mayor and city council trash Pledge of Allegiance
Send an email to Mayor Piercy and entire City Council!
June 29, 2011

According to a Fox News story, Eugene Mayor Kitty Piercy and members of the City Council attacked a proposal by Councilman Mike Clark to say the Pledge of Allegiance before every council meeting.

Instead, the patriotic pledge will only be recited close to "special" occasions, such as July 4.

Councilman Clark says all he wanted to do was unite the council and show his more conservative constituents that in this city where diversity is celebrated, their more traditional values also are important.

His proposal to recite the pledge before each monthly meeting was assailed almost immediately by Mayor Piercy, who called the Pledge "divisive." Councilwoman Betty Taylor compared saying the Pledge of Allegiance to reading from "The Communist Manifesto," while Councilman George Brown suggested patriotic citizens keep it to themselves in the privacy of their own homes.

Anti-patriotic liberals want to remove every vestage of patriotism from Eugene. Don't let them do it!
