Is a Pledge of Allegiance unconditional? If so, is it worthy of a patriot? I am loyal to the nation, but it is conditional on the nation living up to its end of the bargain. As such, I offer no pledge of allegiance; I merely affirm that I love this nation and am willing to sacrifice to defend it, and its people. 
"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt."
