President Obama removes 'Creator' from the preamble of the Declaration of Independence

Hobbes, Locke, and Cicero be damned. President Obama single handedly overturns Natural Law. Friday evening President Obama addressed the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute. At around 22:30, he incorporates part of the preamble of The Declaration of Independence, removing "Creator".

"We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal..... endowed with certain unalienable rights, life and liberty, and the pursuit of happiness"

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. Is looks like he is disgusted and decided it would be better not to read what the preamble actually says.

President Obama, if our Creator is not the purveyor of our human rights, then who is? The government?

[SomeCallMeTim]

Thanks... but, you gotta warn people... The line of interest is at the 22:22 mark..

I nearly blew a gasket listening to all that CRAP!

[Ev Reeman]

OBama is a godless commie.

[greyfoxx39]

Can you cite at what point in the speech he says this?

As indicated in the first paragraph in the article, "At around 22:30, he incorporates part of the preamble of The Declaration of Independence, removing "Creator".

Starts at about 21:35.

Campaign ad material!!!

[Tex-Con-Man]

...endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights...

We are the ACLU and we approved this message.

[greyfoxx39]

ROTFL! Well, the consensus is that it starts around the 21:30-22:00 mark.

[The Wizard]

this crumb must go...and the sooner the better

[Shannon]

Go to 22:30 and watch it. He sure does a lot of blinking.

[NoGrayZone]

"God is gonna be upset."

I think He already is. The wrath of God is certainly NOT something I want coming down upon my head..

Hopefully, He will allow all believers to see it happen, then we can gleefully thank the Lord again for His many blessings!

“At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it? Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years. At what point, then, is the approach of danger to be expected? “I answer, if it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.” (Lincoln)

And this is the quote that WDW Hall of Presidents used to have Lincoln stand up and say, BUT TO PROTECT THE BJ KING ORIGINALLY, (AND NOW MOOGLY THE MAN CUB) THEY CHANGED IT

[NoGrayZone]

He also pauses at that moment. I guess he couldn’t tolerate saying Creator.

One would have to wonder by now if Zer0 is deliberately pushing "we the People" into doing something other than having mass rallies, waving peaceful signs, and doing "protests".

If so, the old adage would apply:

You better be careful what you ask for, you just may get it.

If he is counting on the army to quell an rising, it just may not happen.....I remember well the line of old commies in the former USSR standing in front of the state house in Moscow with the Red Army tanks coming up the hill to take Yeltsen into custody and quell the uprising...

...and then they stopped.

It was clear that they were not going to support the commies, and the rest is history.....

Being "commander in chief" of the military is not necessarily the same as "being in control" of the military....

I can tolerate only the smallest dose of uncut Bam. I don’t have time to watch a 24-min video waiting for him to scowl and omit the word “Creator.” I take your word that he did. The creep.

“I guess he couldn’t tolerate saying Creator.”

Would he cringe in horror at the sight of a cross? Maybe why religious symbols were covered when he spoke at Georgetown.

[savedbygrace]

LOL.

[Siena Dreaming]

Thanks.

Lookin' good, Mr. President!

Just advance the bar to 22:39 by clicking on it at that point, Mrs. Don-O (see image and here's the link).

He probably just assumed everyone would know it was him.</s>
