True That. Most people don't realize that "under God" wasn't added till the '50s, around the same time people were building fall-out shelters in their backyard. Commies are atheist, so it was one way to combat the commies that were crawling all over Hollywood at the time. But now it has turned into some Pat Robertson-Christian-Coalition-Abortion Clinic bombing- Crusade to keep "under God" in.
