I just wanted to chime in on this as I just learned of it. This site is dedicated to this exact thing happening and I apologize if it has been posted, I did not read the entire thread. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://home.att.net/~poofcatt/july.html">http://home.att.net/~poofcatt/july.html</a><!-- m -->
To me, this is just catering to one individual or a small group of individuals rights. Land of the free my ass. Children should be given the choice to say it if they choose to or not. This is an example of taking away one groups rights (as they will no longer be able to say it in school) and granting the rights of a minority. Wouldn't a counter suit be feasible based on the fact alone that now they are discriminating against those that would like to say the pledge? I don't understand U.S. Citizens some times.
