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?
Thanks to Freepers complaining I figured out how to skip to a certain time in Youtube videos. Thanks.

To cite the Creator would be to admit that there is something in the Universe greater than Barack Hussein Obama.
Cool!
If they are going to go after Obama (which they should), they should at least get it right, or they themselves come off looking like they don't know what they are talking about.
"We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certian unalienabe rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happoness," ss from the Declaration of Independence.
The Preamble to the Constitution reads:
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
My post #1 regarding the damage obama has done to the Constitution may have mislead you into thinking I don't know the difference, however at the bottom of post #1 is a link to "IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776 The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America"
Why do you refer to the preamble?
It is in his closing statement.
It is not a matter of what suits me. The question was why did you refer to the preamble? I had expected a cogent answer to a cogent question but now I question what it is about the question that upset you.
Aanyhow, we are certainly more than agreed on the damage to the Constitution, and the trampling of its underlying foundational principles (which are succinctly laid out in the Declaration) that Obama and his abettors are doing...and they are doing it with a will and intent to destroy our Constitutional Republic.
Someone has the video segment where the bummer edits out GOD from the Declaration of Independence - on YouTube.
He's blinks and pauses as if he's just seen Satan - and waits for the teleprompter to get past ‘the Creator” -
Some things, I guess, even a muzzie under cover isn't allowed to do.
email the link to everyone in your email box - libs and all - cause they will still look at it - giving the video a ‘hit’
Let’s get this thing viral!
The million dollar Marxist continues his attack on all things American.
