Who needs God when you have Chicago Jesus?
Via The Blaze:
The Democratic Party may be getting a fair amount of attention this week — and not only because the political movement is hosting its national convention in Charlotte, North Carolina. Another point of focus has already been the contents — or the lack thereof — present in the 2012 Democratic Party Platform.
Earlier today, we told you that the document fails to mention Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, a proclamation that was previously touted by the party. And now, in an even more shocking revelation, CBN News is reporting that the Democrats have removed mentions of “God” from the document as well.
This is a departure from the past. In 2008, the platform read (emphasis added), “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.”

This might explain the initial reluctance to invite Cardinal Dolan to deliver the final prayer.

They’ve been Godless for a long time. We’re better off with them putting it in writing.
Same as it ever was.

A two party system. The Godless party and the gutless party.

They’ve always believed, and headed this way. They’ve just decided to actually “go for it” - admit what they are, and stop lying about it. My guess is they are finally realizing that the new media has stripped them bare on this, might as well stop lying abou it.

That just might be the wrong thing to do. I have read that the BOSS has a long reach. It is much safer to be on the right side of history, perhaps the Donks haven't noticed.

Yes. Just like the republican convention removed all reference of conservative, tea party or grass roots.
To: NYer
Probably because for most Democrats, Obama is their God.

I just saw the Dem convention opening ceremony. Even though they moved it from the 70K capacity stadium to the 20K capacity auditorium, the crowd still looked sparse. It looked like there were maybe 5 to 8 thousand. The crowd would have been lost in the stadium that was to be the original venue. Lots of Dems stayed home.
