Domestic terrorism

Just received a forwarded e-mail from an old newspaper friend. It encourages readers to not buy Pepsi products because the company printed patriotic cans with the pledge of allegiance, omitting the words "under God."
The e-mail upset me ... not for the intended reason. I invested two minutes in a search at snopes.com and found the background story on the e-mail, which has also been circulated about Coca-Cola.
Of course, the allegation is false. So, instead of being patriotic by forwarding to everyone in your address book, you're actually contributing to a form of domestic terrorism.
