Obama Continues to Omit ‘Creator’ From Declaration of Independence

During a speech Monday, President Barack Obama once again omitted the Declaration of Independence‘s mention of man’s “Creator” as the source of his “unalienable rights.” While delivering remarks at a dinner fundraiser for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) in Rockville, Md., President Obama spoke about what he called the “essence” of the upcoming midterm election:
As wonderful as the land is here in the United States, as much as we have been blessed by the bounty of this magnificent continent that stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific, what makes this place special is not something physical. It has to do with this idea that was started by 13 colonies that decided to throw off the yoke of an empire, and said, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that each of us are endowed with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
The sole mention of man‘s Creator in Obama’s remarks came at the end when he thanked the audience and said, “God bless you.”
This isn’t the first time the president has selectively edited the Declaration in not acknowledging the role of God in bestowing these rights upon man. During a Sept. 15 speech before the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute’s Annual Awards Gala, the president omitted the religious reference, but the White House dismissed criticism, saying that Obama “went off script and adlibbed when he made that mistake.” But just a week later, the President made the exact same “mistake” speaking during another fundraiser, this time in New York City.
When asked why the president did not use the words “endowed by their Creator” in his Monday speech, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters Tuesday, “I can assure you the president believes in the Declaration of Independence.”

Posted on October 19, 2010 at 6:58pmThat is such a slap in the face to every Founding Father, soldier who has died for this freedom, American past and present and ultimately God himself. But what it really does is show that he has no true faith, no true Christianity because you cannot be “Christ like” without believing in God the Father! He also has no true love of this country and he cannot lead the way he needs to without it.

He has said “Don’t call me that.” Never once – NOT ONE SINGLE TIME – has he or any of his supporters denied that he [thinks he] is the Messiah. A true Christian would NEVER allow himself to be called that.

Posted on October 19, 2010 at 8:40pmI like your point about Obama wanting to demoralize America..I also think the people who say he believes our RIGHTS come from Government and no one else are correct about him. Think about it…why leave out “Creator” when quoting the Founding Documents? Because he believes those rights are really not from any Creator; but from government…hence the right to food, a roof over your head, and the right to a job (among other progressive rights). It’s the Progressive disease that has been ripping away our foundations for the last 100 or so years. Time for those of us who truly know who gives us our rights, to stand up and keep telling all the proggies in DC that Americans believe in God as the only giver of our rights…

It reads, “And we knew that we will not thwart Allah on earth, and that we will not thwart him by flight; And that when we heard the guidance, we believed in it; for he who believes in his lord need not fear to be stinted or overburdened; And that some of us are submitting and some are diverging. Those who have submitted have surely sought rectitude; But those who have diverged, have been firewood for hell; And that had they followed the right path, We would have given them abundant water to drink; SO AS TO TEST THEM THEREBY. HE WHO REFRAINS FROM THE MENTION OF HIS LORD, HE WILL AFFLICT HIM WITH TERRIBLE PUNISHMENT; AND THAT MOSQUES ARE ALLAH’S; SO DO NOT CALL, BESIDES ALLAH, UPON ANYONE ELSE.”

You will never be that powerful. The American public is not made up of rubes and dolts. We are aware of your schemes and your agenda. Your efforts to remove the Creator God from our history will only hurt you in the end. God will not be mocked. This land was settled out of a missional statement of faith and freedom combined. You cannot change that fact no matter how inconvenient it may be. Get over yourself and get with the program. You look foolish.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. BUT when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their RIGHT, it is their DUTY, to THROW OFF such Government, and to provide NEW Guards for their future security.”

Posted on October 19, 2010 at 9:32pmhave to agree with you on that.. so why beat a dead horse? When reporting on this just use it as a fact .. the president does not beleive in a creator therefore omits it in our Delectation of Independence.. and it should be pointed out his NON belief every time he omits it..personally I have NO respect for this president.. I didn’t vote for or like Bush but he was at least smart enough NOT to piss the people off by omitting one of the most important parts of our DOI

Posted on October 20, 2010 at 1:33amIt’s not about mentioning a specific god. It’s about acknowledging that unalienable rights come from god, and therefore there is a line which government may not rightfully cross, else the People rightfully take back what government has stolen:
“That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” – Declaration of Independence

Report Post »Because if you’re the President, you ought to at least quote something like the Declaration of Independence correctly. Additionally… since he is trying to take the power of deciding what are inalienable rights, it is pretty stupid to leave such an obvious tell as this that you are subverting the endowments of our rights by the creator.

Posted on October 20, 2010 at 9:38amI thought America wanted “Change” from sleazy, lying, manipulating, dishonorable, cowardly, egotistical, sell out politicians. I must have been wrong. Seems half this nation readily embraces the most traitorous enemy to our Constitution and Liberty of all time. Guess I‘m just too stupid to know that Socialism is gonna work this time despite Europe’s calamity, the fall of the Roman Empire, and that it’s never worked in the history of the world.

Posted on October 20, 2010 at 1:18pmSo if Obummer doesn’t believe in “The Creator,” then he should quit quoting the Declaration, particularly that sentence! To keep leaving out “The Creator” tells me that Obummer believes that “he’s” the one that has granted those rights. Newsflash: You are not God, Obummer, so quit looking to be worshipped as God!!! That’s the whole reason Satan got tossed from heaven! Man, I’m sooo ready for November 2nd and November 2012 so we can get all these clowns out of Washington!

Posted on October 20, 2010 at 3:10pmMuch has been said in regards to Barack Obama’s religious faith, Christianity X Islam. I strongly believe that Barack Obama himself is his religious faith. He sees himself as a power above any spiritual influence over mankind. His political history of a long association with known and self declared communists also presents the probability that he‘s an atheist and doesn’t believe in any supreme being, He leaves out the “ creator ” in his speeches because he simply rejects the idea that a supreme creator exists.

Posted on October 20, 2010 at 3:38pmExcept that he is telling the country that he and his family are Christians who believe in God or otherwise known as the CREATOR. If one in fact believes in God and then one would proudly state the word CREATOR. I do agree with you when you say that he is just showing what he believes. Or in this case he is just showing us that he is a dishonest President who will say anything and do anything to get what he wants.

Posted on October 20, 2010 at 6:51pmI think he is AFRAID of the acknowledgment to the existence of God because that would mean that Obama is not the final answer. Our God is not his god (un-capitalized) and that offends him just like political cartoons of Muslims, profiling of suspected terrorists (oh, that is right, Obama said we could not call them terrorists), non-English speaking vagrants lurking around border towns in Arizona and Texas (and there is no such thing as an illegal immigrant or alien – I call em “illegal trespassers” or “invaders with the intent to steal my tax dollar in the form of unlawfully attained benefits”). If these offend anyone, sorry. It is my Freedom of Speech amendment coming out.

Posted on October 20, 2010 at 8:59pmHere’s a translation of what ABC actually MEANT by his first post:
“So what. I’d take an atheist over a religious politician if the atheist were the Democrat.”
But that misses the point entirely. It’s not a question of whether or not Obama is religious. He claims to be. However, he fails consistantly to acknowledge that the diety that he claims to believe in is the source of our inalienable rights.
In my opinion, this is because Obama believes that rights are bestowed on the people by government. Were they given to us by God as a birthright, government could not take them away. If there is one truth about Obama of which we can be certain, it is that his ideal government is one that can give and take away rights to the people at will. And, of course, that there will be far more taking than giving.

Two candidates being equal, I would vote for the candidate with sense of AWE. The phenomenon of AWE is the moment of recognition that you are merely a self agrandising mote, a speck of dust.
