Default Trustee Recalled for not saying Pledge of Allegiance

Trustee recalled in Estes Park

An Estes Park town trustee refused to stand or recite the Pledge of Allegiance before meetings because of the phrase 'under God'. Instead of standing and just not saying the 2 words, he decided to make a big stink and draw all kinds of attention to himself by not standing in protest.

The townsfolk freaked and demanded a recall election. The trustee went to the Colorado courts to avoid the recall election but the court said the people absolutely had the right to recall his butt. And why not? They put him there, they should be able to revove his asss.

He was recalled yesterday by a 3 to 2 margin and is no longer in office.

The funny thing is that I heard this guy in a few interviews state that it was his right to not say the pledge, but the people did not have the right to recall him. LMAO [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
