OBAMA REMOVES 'GOD' FROM GETTYSBURG ADDRESS
Breitbart ^ | 11/19/13 | by LARRY O'CONNOR

Posted on 11/19/2013 7:49:18 AM PST by Clint N. Suhks

Washington DC talk show host Chris Plante reported today that Barack Obama omitted the words "under God" from the Gettysburg Address when reciting the great speech for a Ken Burns documentary.

Burns had filmed all living presidents as well as various Hollywood personalities and luminaries to pay homage to the speech which was delivered by Abraham Lincoln 150 years ago, today.

Plante broke the story on Washington DC talk radio station WMAL on his mid-morning program, "The Chris Plante Show."

Barack Obama omitted the words "under God"

It's sobering to reflect that God did not omit Barack Obama, but instead permitted him to visit us, as He permitted Attila the Hun to visit Europe. We must assume He has His purpose, such as forcing us to return to our principles and take the necessary actions.

Obama's being somewhat of a weasel - there are actually five "versions" of the Address. The most common one we know is the Bliss Version, written in Lincoln's own hand and considered the "final version". There are other versions, though - the first and second drafts of the speech did not contain "Under God". So if pressed, Obama can say that he was reading from the first or second draft.

You’re exactly right. He and people of his ilk feel compelled to leave you with certain CAREFULLY CRAFTED impressions rather than just laying out the facts and letting the chips fall where they may. Liberals are afraid that objective facts might lead to conclusions that don’t support their agenda.

There are several different contemporary drafts of the speech. Some have “under God”, some don’t. Which version he actually said is not known for sure.

Left out God?

Well, then he didn’t quote the Gettysburg Address, did he?

Let’s be clear about this:
1. The version read by AL at GB DID INCLUDE “under God.”
2. ALL 57 readers other than the Kenyan CS’er, read “under God,” (Plante has been playing the audio of the other readers all day)
3. It is beyond insane to suggest that Burns gave 57 people the “under God” version, and gave only the Kenyan CS’er some other version.

There are those who believe that Osama Obama is a moslem but I'll bet the clothes on my back that he's an atheist who came to understand long ago that to get anywhere in American politics he had to keep that a secret.Of course he needn't care anymore,so....

Apparently a monumental mistake such as Obamacare is insufficient to get a sitting president kicked out of office, but perhaps it will be something like this that will finally get Obama the boot to his backside that he so much deserves.

Amen to that! He's smart, very funny, quick and I love how he beats up Libtards who are @$$holes on the air. Mrs Suhks goes to his events all the time and we even met him this summer by accident at a Chevy Chase restaurant.

For further documentation of the vast divide between the philosophy of liberty understood and delivered by Lincoln, and the prevailing so-called "progressive" philosophy of the current Administration and its cadre of supporters in the Democrat Party, SEE.

For someone who claims to be a “Christian”, he sure does go out of his way to publicly disown God.

Well Hugin, the one carved in stone in the Lincoln Memorial at Washington, DC has the words “under God”. End of story.

The Gettysburg Address, as telepromptered by Barack Hussein Obama on the website http://www.learntheaddress.org:

"...that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain - that this the nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom..."
