Obama is urging Americans on the Fourth of July to live up to the words of the Declaration of Independence by securing liberty and opportunity for their own children as well as for future generations.
In his weekly radio and online address, Obama commemorates the Fourth of July by looking back at the day in 1776 that a small band of patriots declared those in the American colonies “a people created equal” —free to think and worship and live as they please.

We ought to be celebrating Egyptian-style.
nobama is such a destructive fool. his resigning today would do the day justice.
That’s why he is in Africa.
Under the radar, kinda, he is back in the White Hut as of yesterday or the night before. Most likely the latter. He got his photo op in the situation room discussing what they were going to do about the events in Egypt.
Yeah.....only not ALL the words....just a select few.
[July 4, when our forefathers declared political independence from England’s tyrannous King George and set in motion a government conceived in liberty but eventually taken over by the same tyrannous spirit. Has the time come to again press that big Reset Button? We can do it peacefully, if we really
want to.
So, when are we going to start a thread on FR about what a Constitutional Convention will change? Or are too many people so afraid a Convention will destroy more rights than the current trajectory of events will clearly do?
As if you know American History or even understand it... even if you were ever exposed to it in Indonesia... you little African marxist fagot.

Take your own advice Barack.
ALL THAT OBAMA HAS DONE WITH REGARDS TO EGYPT IS TO DEMAND AND ORDER THE US PRESS TO IGNORE ALL OF THE HATE FOR OBAMA THAT IS EVIDENT IN TAHIR SQUARE!

“The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.”

What, start shooting?
What a liar. He hopes we don’t.
like freedom of religion as long as you don’t say God or Jesus and attest that the Koran is holy.
WHY have we NOT insurrected ? (is that a word??)
"When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
IF Obama ever read the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution, he certainly did not understand it.
