So Now We're Not Endowed By Our Creator?

Well how 'bout that Obama omits the part about being "endowed by our creator" from the Declaration of Independence during a speech with the National Hispanic Caucus....

Ann Coulter put forth a "theory" on Obama's religious beliefs that I've held for sometime myself, that he is in fact probably either agnostic, or (as Ann has put it) is just flat out atheist.

America's problems aren't political, they are religious. The downward spiral of our gradually becoming more liberal on social issues is the symptom of that. I know there are a lot of conservatives who would disagree, much less liberals but even David Patterson could see the direct correlation between our gradual turning from God, or at the very least His principles, and the growing violence in American society coupled our tolerance for the destructive social forces that cause it.

That's why its ridiculous to debate the politics of items such as gay marriage, and why even though I have a very concrete position on the issue I tend to stay out of it. If someone doesn't see the moral delinquency of same sex relationships you can't merely argue it out of them.

Only Christ can change their hearts on such matters. (So can moving to peacefully religious Iran)

His choice to selectively leave The Creator out of his quoting the Declaration of Independence was extremely intentional, I just wish I knew exactly what his intention was. Either it's to lead America out of what he perceives to be the crutch of Christianity, or maybe for him acknowledging God makes him more uncomfortable than Barney Frank taking his turn at "spin the bottle" in a sorority house.

In the end I don't care what it is, I've opposed his presidency since August 3, 1961, so its not like I need yet one more reason to throw him out on his ass two years from now...

In an action curiously reminiscent of Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, "Our Creator" disappears into the memory hole.

The Axelgreasy written teleprompter had Eendowed by the government with certain ...’ and Barry thought that would be a little more than the Bohorde would swallow on that particular oration. Perhaps he was momentarily thrown off because it was not his name that Axelgreasy put in there as the endower.

I’m sure he thinks he is very clever or courageous with that speech.

He live in his own little world.

It would be fascinating to get 60 seconds of analysis from Orwell today.

obama does not get to re-write the Declaration, or the Constitution, or anything else. Just because his muslim roots won't let him mouth the words does in no way mean that we have to mimic him.

Some people are acting like obama is god, and anything he utters is automatically the law; well it isn't.

With all the talk of the Creator going on (and it is well-deserved), don't let this omission slip by:

He left out the words "that among these are:"

Suddenly, it's only life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness that are inalienable.

What 0bama calls “voices of the people” are just voices in his head.

So Now We're Not Endowed By Our Creator?

We are endowed by the Immaculate One, Barack Hussein Obama, peace be upon him. His to bestow and his to take away.
