Just For The Funk of It
Posted on February 26, 2009 by Tito
I’m a sucker for the Universal Newsreels youtube channel. Always amusing to get my daily dose of propoganda 50+ years ex post facto. So it’s with a smidgen of curmudgeonly delight that I revel in viewing this recitation of the pledge of allegiance in 1941 before the “under God” clause was added1 in 1954. Which is, of course, apparently a big deal to not include nowadays (to some people at least).
Note: the audio is a little garbled at the beginning.
1 Apparently at the behest of the Knights of Columbus, who you may recognize from their recent support of Prop 8 in California.
