Obama has hijacked the American Revolution
WND ^ | 1/24/2013 | Buchanan, Pat

“Second Term Begins With a Sweeping Agenda for Equality,” ran the eight-column banner in which the Washington Post captured the essence of Obama’s second inaugural. There he declared:

“What binds this nation together … what makes us exceptional – what makes us American – is our allegiance to an idea, articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago.”

Obama then quoted our Declaration of Independence:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

Our “union,” Obama went on, was “founded on the principles of liberty and equality.”

Nice prose – and transparent nonsense.

How could the American Union have been founded on the principle of equality, when “equality” is not mentioned in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights or the Federalist Papers? How could equality be a founding principle of a nation, six of whose 13 original states had legalized slavery, and five of whose first seven presidents owned slaves all their lives?

"The devil can cite scripture for his purpose"
- William Shakespeare

The Bard got that one right - he had an uncanny knowledge of human nature and of evil. His creation of Iago, a believable villain who sees himself as a villain and delights in evil, should prepare us for the current occupant of our White House.

What a damnable liar. Obama wants the same thing to happen in United States that he and Hillary caused in Lyba and Egypt. Tear down the country and let the Muslims and Communists take over more than what they have. The two of them better watch out or the same thing will happen to them that happened to Gadafi and Mubarak with all of their lies and coverups. It won’t be by people, it will be by God

Obama has hijacked the American Revolution.....

Could it be partially due to the fact that (VERY) few schools TEACH the US History and the entertainment media will have nothing to do with anything but Historical Facts but rather shovel out Historical buffoonery?

55,000,000 million dead babies are wondering what happened to their equal rights. Free fetus disposal is not a right, 0bama.

The French Revolution was the one where they wanted “Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity.” It also resulted in 2 emperors, a Reign of Terror, four failed republics, and now a tottering fifth one.

Actually, what Obama did at his second inaugural, was nothing short of a clear declaration of war on America.

America has never been about the dreams of one man, it has always been about every mans dreams.....

I don’t know if Obama hijacked it or if the “little man” American people just surrendered without firing a shot.

Ultimately, it boils down to the failure of the American people and particularly Republican primary voters with their heads in the sand, nominating the same old failures and losers ad nauseum.

Indeed it does - did he really need to spell out that Obama then bastardized and twisted it by indicating that all things homosexual needed to be given equalspecial rights?

How many States have open primaries??? When the dems have a shoe in like Obama, as a practice they cross over to reek havoc for Republicans. When, oh when are we going to do all we can to close all primaries???
