Megan Barry, who is currently a member of the Metro Council overseeing Nashville and Davidson County, is being accused of quietly refusing to say the words “under God” during the Pledge of Allegiance, which she denies and audio recordings from the Tennessean contradict.
A campaign ad supporting Barry’s rival David Fox, created by fellow Metro Council member Duane Dominy, says menacingly, “It is important that you know what I have witnessed before you vote…Right after being sworn in, it was pointed out to me that during the Pledge of Allegiance Megan Barry skips the words, ‘under God.'”
Another Fox supporter, Councilman Michael Craddock, corroborates Dominy’s claim.
“I never in four years heard her say the words, ‘under God,’ when we would recite the pledge,” Craddock said.
Fox denied that his campaign had anything to do with the ad. But it’s not the first time Barry has been accused of being an atheist.
Last week, Fox began running ads targeting Nashville’s African-American population, which accused her of being “too secular” to run the city and bashed her Vanderbilt professor husband, Bruce Barry for criticizing the “Jesus Industrial Complex.”
