WASHINGTON (AP) - Calling the Declaration of Independence more than words on an aging parchment, President Barack Obama marked the Fourth of July on Sunday by urging Americans to live the principles that founded the nation as well as celebrate them. "This is the day when we celebrate the very essence of America and the spirit that has defined us as a people and as a nation for more than two centuries," Obama told guests at a South Lawn barbecue honoring service members and their families.
"We celebrate the principles that are timeless, tenets first declared by men of property and wealth but which gave rise to what Lincoln called a new birth of freedom in Americacivil rights and voting rights, workers' rights and women's rights, and the rights of every American," he said. "And on this day that is uniquely American we are reminded that our Declaration, our example, made us a beacon to the world."

On July 4th, while speaking about how great he thinks America is, he cannot find it in his heart to praise our founding fathers. Instead, he refers to them as men of wealth and property - clear marxist terms to those understand. This is what he actually believes is the "very essence and the spirit that has defined us as a people and as a nation for more than two centuries."

What a total, scum-sucking, bottom-dwelling douche bag.

Rich white boys.
Thank you!
You read my mind.
Let’s also not forget that they were mostly CHRISTIAN WHITE BOYS.

The people elected a man who hates this country and all the principles upon which it was founded.

No acknowledgment that these men risked their lives and many lost their property for the cause of freedom.
I would have preferred he stuck with golf yesterday.

Anyone with the limited accomplishments of this poser is simply unable to comprehend how very, very special our Founding Fathers were.

He gets property. He does not earn it. Indeed. he does not even understand the concept of property, its creation, preservation and transmission.

“Men of wealth and property” who literally risked their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor to secure the blessings of liberty for their fellow countrymen and their descendants, including the Kenyan Fraud.
So you might say these men had the ultimate “skin in the game”. What’s Obama put in?

I refuse to give him the respect of referring to him as a man.
I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if he was created not by God but by Satan.

I'm surprised he didn't expand how Karl Marx could improve on the Founding Fathers principles as he was a man of no property and wealth.

It’s easy to see that his speechwriter is a 25 year old Marxist.
One who is bitter because he can’t get a date with a person of either sex in DC.
Blame it on those rich, white property owners!

I agree with your translation.
Race and Islam is what the obama presidency is all about. He's got a deep, ingrained hatred for white people, and he wears it on his sleeve for all to see.
He made a few million dollars last year, but is still railing about rich, white people. Never a word about black millionaires like NBA players, NFL players, movie stars like Eddie Murphy or Bill Cosby...just rich WHITE people.
If I said nasty things about rich, black people...I'd be branded a "racist" right away. With obama, it can't be about the money, he's right up there when it comes to "rich"...so it has to stem back to some ingrained feeling of inferiority.
I think he's looking out and seeing the vast majority of whites taking the baby boomer express...getting older...and starting to end their productive lives; like a vulture he wants to swoop in and gather up the carcasses...or at least the carcasses homes, savings, and retirement funds. He also is hunting ways to have them "put down" if he has to spend too much of
their to keep them alive.
He's a thief; he's a home and bank account invader; he's an extortionist.
He is scum.
