Yesterday morning MSNBC drew controversy regarding a new ad which featured a soundbite from Al Sharpton’s show Politics Nation. In the soundbite, Sharpton monologues about how we must have a “renewed” for many of the things that “we” have fought for. In the promo he brings up voting rights, women’s rights, and discrimination. At the end of the video Sharpton is quoted by saying that we need to live up to our “creed” of being “one nation, indivisible, with liberty, and justice for all.” Surely, anyone could tell what famous oath he is pulling his words from, but it does not sound as it usually does. The pledge of allegiance states: One nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty, and justice for all. The “Under God” part Sharpton deliberately left out. After being reached out to by TheBlaze.com, a spokesperson with MSNBC reassured that he was in fact not referring to the pledge of allegiance but instead was just part of a segment. This is in stark contrast to what Sharpton says in the monologue about our “creed.”
The actual segment can be seen below from January 4th where Sharpton engages in his usual lambasting of republicans and conservatives for demanding that voters present identification at the voting polls. Imagine that crazy concept.
The “segment” begins at the 4:40 mark
What are your thoughts on Al Sharpton’s liberal harangue? Was he in the right for omitting a phrase so well-known and revered by many? Post your thoughts below!

"Doug Giles and his team over at ClashDaily.com cut through the crap to expose what have become modern day human slaughter houses: gun free zones. Their candid arguments about allowing teachers to protect themselves and the students in their care through concealed carry should be taken seriously. As a result maybe, just maybe, we’ll be able to save some lives someday rather than call the cops to report the body count." - Katie Pavlich.

"There were many lessons to draw from the horrific Newtown, CT school shooting. Unfortunately, most of the media and political Left came up with the wrong ones. But not Doug Giles and his writers over at ClashDaily.com. In the wake of this horror, they offered a robust defense of American citizens' right to bear arms and common sense answers to societal violence. The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away is a great resource for those interested in this vital, Constitutional issue." - S.E.
