Guess what? Gods name has been removed from the Democratic National Committee platform.
This is the paragraph that was in the 2008 platform:
We need a government that stands up for the hopes, values, and interests of working people, and gives everyone willing to work hard the chance to make the most of their God-given potential.
Now the words God-given have been removed. The paragraph has been restructured to say this:
We gather to reclaim the basic bargain that built the largest middle class and the most prosperous nation on Earth the simple principle that in America, hard work should pay off, responsibility should be rewarded, and each one of us should be able to go as far as our talent and drive take us.

Thanks, at least now it is writing.
I bet the lesson will be swift and decisive. This psalm hits the nail on the head:
http://bible.oremus.org/?passage=Psalm+36
What is wrong with the DEMS and their always touting “hard work”? My Dad, a wise man, taught us to be smart, to look smart and let those who did not invest in themselves, do the “hard work”. Use your head and not your back!
Not having God in the Dem Party platform is no surprise to me. They take the separation of God FROM State at their peril.
“Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.” Romans 1:21.
Was there ever a more concise and accurate description of our country today, and especially the Democrat party?
The RAT-lib-commie-feminazi womyn better not turn around and look back — remember Sodom and Gomorrah and Lot’s wife!
The platform is becoming: There is no God but Allah. And Obama is his prophet.
What lesson did He teach us in 2008?
I think the rest of Chapter 1 of Romans is appropriate:
“For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creatorwho is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know Gods righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.”
They have to be relegated to a status where they can do the rest of us no harm.
So the Democrat platform is omitting God.
Perhaps St. Elijah the Thunderer will be visiting their convention on the day that obama speaks.

Then the Dims may be singing a different tune!!!!
Absolutely appropriate.
I like it!!! LOL
Has been true for years, this makes it official and 0 is their god.
Isaiah 1 is pretty good. It talks about them praying and worshiping, only He doesn’t listen to them, for they do vile and repulsive things, and call them part of God. He says: I don’t know you.
“What lesson did He teach us in 2008?”
That if conservatives stay home they will get Obama?
Now THAT makes sense....LOL!
The Democrats neither believe in God-given talent, nor God-given rights. If you don’t believe in God-given rights of man, the constitution is meaningless and we are left with all rights emanating from the state.
This is the problem that we ran into with Justice Roberts. He obviously doesn’t believe in God-given rights, which also negates the check and balance system as laid out in the constitution.
They should change their name to the Reprobate Party.
