Good God



Some crazy insisted that Barack say the pledge DURING a speech on energy:

After freelance photographer John Quinn insisted on saying the Pledge of Allegiance at the start of an Obama rally at Baldwin-Wallace College, Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama led the gathering in saying the pledge.

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama came to Baldwin-Wallace College in Berea Tuesday afternoon to talk about his energy policies, as he had earlier in the day in Youngstown.

But before he could delve into the topic, a man in the press photo gallery interrupted him, shouting complaints that the Illinois senator had not started the program with the Pledge of Allegiance. Many in the packed gymnasium murmured and some booed the disruption, but Obama took the heckler in stride and asked him to lead the pledge.
