Savage: Dems rejection of God 'the turning point' Radio host tells of his own divine encounter that illuminates moment

[Editor's note: Listen to the opening segment of today's "Savage Nation" at the end of this story]

The Democratic Party’s symbolic dismissal of God with the removal and forced return of His name to its platform by party officials amid boos from delegates could be the turning point in the 2012 presidential campaign said talk radio-host Michael Savage.

“This is a big moment,” Savage told his listeners after describing a remarkable divine encounter he experienced last night that has underscored for him the gravity of the moment.

“America is disgusted with this party of atheists and America haters,” he said.

At the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte today, the Associated Press noted Democratic officials were embarrassed by the reaction to the party’s removal from its platform yesterday of God’s name and of a declaration that Jerusalem is Israel’s capital.

When officials tried to reinsert the language today through amendments, Chairman Antonio Villaraigosa, the mayor of Los Angeles, had to call for a voice vote three times because the outcome was unclear. The motion required an affirmation of two-thirds to pass, but it sounded like the yeas and nays were equal. When he ruled that the amendments had been approved by acclamation, he was met with a chorus of boos from delegates.

The scene at the DNC today was a sharp contrast to Savage’s experience last night at a Jewish wedding held at a cold, foggy and windy Presidio on San Francisco Bay.

The site of the wedding was next to the graves of thousands of war dead.

Savage said that as he stood behind the area where the ceremony took place, he noticed a small, bronze plaque ..

Perhaps the most repeated message in scripture is what happens to a people when they turn away from God - it isn’t pretty. The Dems essentially gave God the finger. There is a hard rain gonna fall.

It isn’t just away from God it’s also toward communism. Savage is so on point here. Imagine the intolerance and how lost and rude are the people who thought nothing of BOOING the mention of God on national tv.

Out here in the real world the leftists are the loudest most intolerant voices, in power they will do heinous things, and they have.

That was just more icing on the cake. For the last four years, we have been watching them set themselves up for the inevitable:

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
Proverbs 16:18

Consequences.

The Democrat rejection of God is illustrative of the fundamental difference between Republicans and Democrats. Without a belief in God, there are no God-given rights of man. Without God-given rights, all rights emanate from the state, the State is supreme.

If the State is supreme, the “We the People” wording of the constitution is meaningless as is the checks and balance system that is written into the constitution.

I believe this is the reasoning that John Roberts used when he declared Obamacare to be constitutional. I believe it is also the reasoning behind the court throwing out most of the AZ immigration law (some of that ruling was reversed on appeal) as well as the court ruling against voter ID in Texas.

No one should be surprised at this turn of events. Socialists always go after religion. So far, this is very mild but if they gain confidence in their positions of power they will turn on the religious just as happened in the Paris Reign of Terror, the Bolshevik revolution in Russia, the Spanish civil war, Pol Pot’s slaughter - in fact, wherever marxists have come to power.

If you want to know what complete leftist control would look like see: France (1789-1798)

The Democrats are not only waging a war against the Catholic Church, they are waging a war against God in our lives. The Democrats are Statists, who believe that the Government is Supreme. That’s probably the reason that the media so often depicts Obama as some sort of deified being.

He is right. This is much bigger “out in flyover country” than the inside the beltway crowd thinks. I’ve already heard from socially conservative but democrat leaning union folks who are livid over it.

I’m not a huge Michael Savage fan, but he may be right that this is a turning point. Let’s hope the people wake up and see the Democratic Party for what it has become.
