That is the truth, and along that line, permit me to quote from a report made to the Seventy-sixth Congress on January 3, 1939:
Americanism is based upon the recognition that the inherent and fundamental rights of man are derived from God and not from governments, dictators, kings or majorities. It is as un-American to hate one's neighbor because he has more of this world's material goods as it is to hate him because he was born into a different race. Americanism is is a philosophy of government based upon the belief in God as the Supreme Ruler of His Universe.
That report was submitted by -- get this -- a Democrat from Texas, Martin Dies, pictured below. Back in 1939, there were actually people with a D next to their name, many from the South and quite a few from Texas, who loved America and realized that God was the foundation of this great country. Congressman Martin Dies of the Texas Second (now served by Ted Poe) launched the Dies Committee, authoring that report, which later became the HUAC, paving the way for war hero Senator Joe McCarthy to expose the communist enemy within.
And here's an additional quote from a genuine Patriot about Our Creator:
Without God, obviously wed have no God-given unalienable rights. Wed have only the rights government decides we should have. Thats the way it was done all throughout history until our founding fathers recognized the self-evident truth. America was founded on the principle that all men are created equal by God and granted their unalienable rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness... and self-rule. No king. No dictator. No ruler. No king but God.
His name is probably more familiar than that of Martin Dies. It came from a February 26, 2014 post by the American Hero pictured below.
Thank you very much.
Amen and thank you, Godly patriot!! Excellent post.
Spot on! This is exactly why the Left wants to remove God from the public square. Without Our Creator they get to decide what rights we do or do not have.
George H.W. Bush is well known to regard Texas Democrats before the 90s as basically an auxiliary of the Ku Klux Klan. He really dislikes people with that background .... as if they'd personally dragged a person of color behind their country Cadillacs.
They're raciss, you see.
(Also, Texans.)
Well said.
