I don't stand when I'm reading the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. Do you? When you look up the Amendments on the internet to make sure you know what you're talking about when you offer an opinion, do you stand up at your computer desk? No? Then why would you stand for a symbol of that document? You don't stand for the actual document.

I stand during the Pledge. I don't put my hand over my heart, and I don't recite the pledge. But I do stand, out of respect for those who choose to exercise their right to recite it.
