Two days before the country was set to celebrate Constitution Day, President Obama decided to invoke the words of another founding document: the Declaration of Independence. Except he changed the words.
Towards the end of a speech on September 15 to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute, Obama began quoting the famous “rights” line from the founding document. But partway through, he omitted where those rights come from: a Creator.
The line is supposed to read: “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.”
But Obama’s recitation left out an important part: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are crated equal. [Long Pause] Endowed with certain inalienable [sic] rights: life and liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
As the American Thinker points out, it could well be that Obama intentionally ignored his teleprompter:
After President Obama says “created equal..”, there is a long pause during which he scowls and blinks several times. For once, he may actually have opted to not read something that was on the teleprompter. It looks like he is disgusted and decided it would be better not to read what the [Declaration] actually says.

Well, doncha know, Obama is god. Just ask him.
If he didn’t say Creator, he wasn’t quoting the Declaration.
If he didn’t say Creator, he wasn’t quoting the Declaration.
re: unalienable
Playing the role of the devil’s advocate here let me just say I wonder if he skipped that line because, like me, he knew he didn’t stand a snowball’s chance in hell of pronouncing “unalienable” correctly? I have always dreaded that sentence simply because it contained a word that I have seldom, if ever, been able to say correctly.
</devil’s advocate mode>
I doubt the conservative anger against this will backfire because Obama hates “bitter clingers” so much. But is it possible that the easy [and laughable] spin is, “Verbal brevity. People shorten statements all the time, and these attacks against me are ridiculous.”
Verbal brevity is not in his lexicon, but that’s the possible spin.
I think it might be safer to challenge him with harsh questions about this rather than to openly claim this is proof of anything.
On the other hand, I think they nailed him:
“After President Obama says “created equal..”, there is a long pause during which he scowls and blinks several times. For once, he may actually have opted to not read something that was on the teleprompter. It looks like he is disgusted and decided it would be better not to read what the [Declaration] actually says.”
