Clinton backs kid who knelt during Pledge of Allegiance: 'Keep up the good work'

[Getin the ring]

I'm a classical liberal and I'm sincere about loving only parts of the country. Too big and diverse to like it all.

I agree, that California part is kind of nauseating isn't it

It's a beautiful state, by and large. Did you know that the devastating DEMOCRAT domination of California coincided with the ill-advised amnesty for illegals?

Maybe we could trade California for Cuba, at least Cuba is somewhat solvent right now

HA! I knew Clinton hated America!!

[Frank Apisa]

Not a Hillary fan, but on this one "I'm with her."

I think the anti-kneelers forgot what it means to be an American. Change comes about from protest, and protest usually takes great courage.

Amen!

Just don't do the national anthem or pledge of allegiance anymore. Problem solved.
Every now and then I go to one of our neighborhood community council meetings and the first thing they do is say the pledge of allegiance.
I'm seriously uncomfortable with it because it makes me feel like I'm in grade school. I could just not participate but then i'd draw attention to myself as if I'm protesting or disrespectful.
I'm sure my wife is uncomfortable with it being a German citizen.

I used to attend EVERY Township Council Meeting...and because of my antipathy toward the "under god" phrase, simply stood and said nothing at all.

If anyone ever noticed, nobody ever mentioned it to me.

Damn that Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Frank Apisa]

what would you expect from a disgruntled old has been.

Exactly what you post almost every day.

How about you?

She has nothing to lose now that she has been put on the trash pile of nothingness to spend out her days,
so her true feelings come out.

She would have been a better choice than Donald Trump by an order of magnitude to large to imagine.

I think it's a good thing, anyone doubting a liberals sincerity about loving this country and it's sacred symbols, take note.

Conservatives, who know almost nothing about true patriotism and loyalty to country...should not be lecturing on those topics.

I wonder if the little girl "explained" why she knelt. Did I somehow miss that?

[Centerleftfl]

I hate it when I agree with her, but really know, Bill exploded the for profit prison population and she labeled black kids "super predators", do really now, she's toast for good reason.

Left out ALL THE REST of what was going on at the time. But no big surprise. And she apologized for that remark!

Hillary Clinton offered another endorsement on Wednesday -- to an 11-year-old student who made headlines for kneeling during the Pledge of Allegiance.

Clinton tweeted in response to a NowThis report on Mariana Taylor, a Maryland sixth-grader who refused to stand for her classroom’s recitation of the pledge, instead adopting the form of protest used by NFL players.

Clinton tweeted.



The Washington Post reported in May that Taylor, a student at Catonsville Middle School, is a “sixth-grader with strong beliefs about racial injustice, sexism, gay rights and President Trump’s proposed wall at the Mexico border.”

According to the Post, Taylor says she was reprimanded by her teacher, leading to the involvement of her parents as well as the American Civil Liberties Union of Maryland. However, her school has said she wasn’t punished for her actions.

“We know of no [Baltimore County Public Schools] student who has been reprimanded or punished for nonparticipation in patriotic observances,” the school said in a statement. “We fully support students’ rights and encourage student voice as articulated in board policy.”

HILLARY CLINTON DEFENDS KNEELING NFL PLAYERS, SAYS 'THAT'S NOT AGAINST OUR ANTHEM OR OUR FLAG'

Clinton, with her tweet, was doing more than weighing in on a local school dispute. Speaking in support of kneeling puts her at odds with her political nemisis and 2016 foe, President Trump, who has waged a war of words against football players who kneel during the national anthem.

She also weighed in last year, when promoting her campaign post-mortem “What Happened.”

“Actually, kneeling is a reverent position,” she claimed at the time. “It was to demonstrate in a peaceful way against racism and injustice in our criminal system.”

Anyone RECOMMENDING that? Anyone?

Do you mean back when REAGAN was the governor or when he was president?

Who needs Russia to destroy young American patriotism when we've got Bubba?

American conservatives...jerkoffs intent on destroying everything America holds dear...and replacing it with slogans about flags and gods.

You people should sicken even yourselves.
