League of Women Voters Says No Pledge: Audience Ignores Directions and Does It Anyway


In a debate between Joe Walsh and Melissa Bean in Illinois a patriotic event occurred.

The League of Women Voters hosted the event, but claimed there was no time for the Pledge of Allegiance before the proceedings. When someone asked why they would not allow the Pledge to be said, the moderator from the League (Kathy Tate-Bradish) harped, hemmed, and hawed for some time…until the audience just rose up against her and said the Pledge anyway.
