I’ll be sure to leave Obama out of MY family’s Thanksgiving blessing.....
What do you expect from an un-American moozie?
So as I read it, he’s giving thanks to “Luck” on our behalf...
In the 14th and 15th centuries Spanish settlers gave thanks to God....English settlers gave thanks to God....Indians gave thanks to their “Spirits”.....Whole point of Thanksgiving is thanks to God for what we have.
His regime sure is sucking up to the military. I guess he and his ‘RATS figure they are REALLY going to need the military in 2012.
I will make sure I will thank God when I bless our T-Day meal.
The most powerful man on the planet and he is considering our blessings to be a lucky turn of events?
How could we stoop so low collectively to place so much responsibility in the hands of one so irresponsible?
The president said his family was “reflecting on how truly lucky we truly are.”
............................................................
He is right there, His family is truly lucky.
They get free paid vacations on our dime, Golf at the Air Bases, Free Bus’s , all because he was lucky enough to get elected because he was black.
Moron doesn’t know about the Christian and Jew’s God!
He is; however, a sort of god. He’s a god-dam-ed dog!
Lots of the “Thanksgiving” books in the library, schools and book stores have removed God also. Revisionist history—for Marxism. “Community sharing” of things, not praise to God for the bounty. Zero is sickening.
OK, I am finally settled with the fact that Obama has no intention of ever recognizing or remembering God. Why should he? He is not a Christian. But that is alright...because God will remember when Obama stands before Him. He will recognize Obama as a man who is full of hate, anger, and jealousy and a man who turned his back on Him. God will judge Obama accordingly. And when Obama is turned away from Heaven he can thank and recognize the Devil.
What communist dictator ever gave thanks to God?
Pray for America
As I do I recognize that the community organizer will never be 'gone'. He will always be "Mr. President". He will always be roaming the planet on the taxpayers' tab organizing against us.
I only hope that we chose the right path and fortify the congress with people of strength and respect for our heritage.
So much for the president thinking that he's in any way like Lincoln. In another proclamation from 1863 with regards to a national day of prayer and fasting, Lincoln says the following:
Instead, he references the Civil War, two World Wars, and the Great Depression — noting that “Americans drew strength from each other.” However, President Abraham Lincoln said the nation drew its strength from God. He declared as much in his 1863 Thanksgiving Day proclamation …
Will Obama ever be so humbled as to reinvoke this for the USA? I would suppose it takes being a Christian to do so, rather than a devotee of a "black liberation theology" church . . .A Proclamation.
Whereas, the Senate of the United States, devoutly recognizing the Supreme Authority and just Government of Almighty God, in all the affairs of men and of nations, has, by a resolution, requested the President to designate and set apart a day for National prayer and humiliation.
And whereas it is the duty of nations as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon; and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.
And, insomuch as we know that, by His divine law, nations like individuals are subjected to punishments and chastisements in this world, may we not justly fear that the awful calamity of civil war, which now desolates the land, may be but a punishment, inflicted upon us, for our presumptuous sins, to the needful end of our national reformation as a whole People? We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven. We have been preserved, these many years, in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power, as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us!
It behooves us then, to humble ourselves before the offended Power, to confess our national sins, and to pray for clemency and forgiveness.
Now, therefore, in compliance with the request, and fully concurring in the views of the Senate, I do, by this my proclamation, designate and set apart Thursday, the 30th day of April, 1863, as a day of national humiliation, fasting and prayer. And I do hereby request all the People to abstain, on that day, from their ordinary secular pursuits, and to unite, at their several places of public worship and their respective homes, in keeping the day holy to the Lord, and devoted to the humble discharge of the religious duties proper to that solemn occasion. …
-——The very first Thanksgiving was a celebration of community during a time of great hardship,——
Factually wrong.... The pilgrims celebrated by giving thanks to God not the community
Spoken like a true socialist and agnostic
As this POS continues in office the facade is slowly being pulled away by word and deed he is a Marxist in heart and hates America
Didn’t want to offend his Muslim base.
Obama is a muslim.
He is.
He’s working for Saudi Arabia, not for America.
He’s giving a speech at a gay fundraiser next week.
I wouldn’t expect any less of him. Not a God-fearing bone in his body.
