Meanwhile - in Tucson, AZ
My only problem with this is the same one that Stephen Van Buskirk has...
At AZStarnet.com, Josh Brodesky reports:
"'To allow Spanish speaking adults the freedom to pledge their allegiance to our nation in their native language is completely respectful. However, to require English-speaking second-grade students to recite the Pledge in Spanish is another matter entirely,' wrote Stephen Van Buskirk. 'To the Veterans of Foreign Wars, reciting the Pledge of Allegiance is a sacred and meaningful exercise.'
Van Buskirk also chastised Godfrey for not identifying herself as a school principal when she first inquired."
