    Ok Larry, so you’re conceding the Democratic ‘regular guys’ did say it.

    Just want to clear that up.

    What the hell... I'm not conceding, that's what I've been saying all along. YOU are the one who switched from talking about the "regular people" to the public convention.

    Come on, Jon. You're not this stupid.

    The "regular people" were shown in the publicly broadcasted parts of the convention.
    Perhaps you are the one who is confused about who you think you were complaining about.

      We must be careful in how much we show how much information is being withheld from democrats. Their heads might implode.

          Why do you consider Muslims and LGBTQ people not "regular?"

                And in other news, AOC is upset about Kasick getting to speak for 5 minutes but she was only given 60 seconds.

                She said "You'd think they could at least given me a minute..."

                  If the committee meetings' proceedings are not available to the public, how do you know that the "under God" part has been omitted?

                  You're right. I have no knowledge whether these proceedings are available to the public. Presumably they are.

                  However, they were not broadcast to the millions of people who watched the DNC convention.

                  Why were some parts which omitted the "under God" not broadcast while those parts which included it, indeed broadcast? Why are the Democrats ashamed to show diversity of opinion?

                  Thank you for the YouTube link. I am glad to see this. Here I will also address @George-K.

                  This is good. The publication of these videos, contrary to @George-K's assertion, shows that the Democrats are not afraid to reflect and publish different opinions.

                  @Larry, let me know if you think there are Republicans who, when they say the Pledge of Allegiance, will omit the "under God" part.

                  And @George-K, let me know if you think the Republicans will publish videos of committee meetings where in some Republicans say the Pledge of Allegiance without the "under God" part.

                  Frankly I am quite glad that there is a major political party in the USA that still has a tent big enough to include atheists, pantheists, polytheists, etc. As the technology people say sometimes, this is a feature, not a bug.

                    What difference, at this point, does it make?
                    Seriously.

                      Looking forward to seeing that, should it occur.

                      In the meantime, why are Democrat Muslims afraid to say "Under God?" Are they afraid of the language ("Allah" vs "God")?

                      Are they ashamed?

                      I'd really like to know.

                          I have two pieces of advice and one suggestion for you:

                          1. Do not generalize one video showing "one Democrat Muslim" saying the Pledge of Allegiance one way and think that "all Democrat Muslims" would also say it the same way.

                          2. Do not assume that the omission is due to fear or shame. At this point, it does not look like you have enough information to make either inference.

                          3. Consider talking to Democrat Muslims you know and see what they have to say about this.

                          You are welcome.

                                Are they ashamed?

                                I'd really like to know.

                                I have two pieces of advice and one suggestion for you:

                                1. Do not generalize one video showing "one Democrat Muslim" saying the Pledge of Allegiance one way and think that "all Democrat Muslims" would also say it the same way.

                                2. Do not assume that the omission is due to fear or shame. At this point, it does not look like you have enough information to make either inference.

                                3. Consider talking to Democrat Muslims you know and see what they have to say about this.

                                You are welcome.

                                I didn't say that. I simply reported that the Muslim subcommittee decided to not include "under God" in their interpretation of the Pledge of Allegiance.

                                If there is a reason that I'm missing, I'd love to hear your speculation as to why that is.

                                Is it shame?
                                Is it fear?
                                Is it something else?
                                They're not atheists are they?
                                Are they so non-inclusive that "God" is not to be used but "Allah" is? If they had said "One nation, under Allah" would they have done it?

                                Just spitballing questions as to why they decided to omit it.

                                As I said, I'd love to hear your opinion as to why they did that.

                                On a related note, I would think that the DNC would be more inclusive with respect to diversity. After all, some prominent groups decided to not include their variation of the pledge, and yet, the DNC didn't broadcast that version.

                                Why do you think that is? Could it be they were ashamed? Could it be because they didn't want to offend anyone? I don't know; I'd love to hear your thoughts.

                                Again, thanks in advance.

                                  This is obviously false. There are no lack of Democrats still mentioning God today.

                                      You have to be the dumbest human I've ever seen.

                                      It is a well known fact that democrats have tried to eliminate all mention of God from public discourse. You yourself have weighed in on the subject in the past. Just because on occasion you see some democrat politician mention God does not negate the fact that the democrats, including you, mock and make fun of God and people of faith, and have worked diligently for YEARS trying to eliminate all mention of God. For you to now turn around and claim they haven't is pure hypocrisy.

                                      Democrats want to kill babies, eliminate God,.... your party is an evil, vile ideology with absolutely no values and no principles. You're a bunch of morons.

                                        Thank you for the YouTube link. I am glad to see this. Here I will also address @George-K.

                                        This is good. The publication of these videos, contrary to @George-K's assertion, shows that the Democrats are not afraid to reflect and publish different opinions.

                                        @Larry, let me know if you think there are Republicans who, when they say the Pledge of Allegiance, will omit the "under God" part.

                                        And @George-K, let me know if you think the Republicans will publish videos of committee meetings where in some Republicans say the Pledge of Allegiance without the "under God" part.

                                        Frankly I am quite glad that there is a major political party in the USA that still has a tent big enough to include atheists, pantheists, polytheists, etc. As the technology people say sometimes, this is a feature, not a bug.
