What a shock.
Barack Obama dropped “that are endowed by our Creator” from the Declaration of Independence in a speech he gave this past week.
Blue Collar Philosophy reported:
Then again, maybe it was just an accident?

The sad thing is… even I as Austrian and Atheist, who was never a “professor of law”, know that it says Creator in the document at that point.
How do I know? I have a copy of it and the Constitution right here on my rig.
Accident?
No. He did that on purpose. Obama doesn’t make mistakes, there are no accidents. It’s all on purpose.
IOpian commented:
Since he read it off TOTUS it had to have been intentional.
jerryl commented:
the bible states you deny God He will deny you so again what god does obama follow ? its not the one of the bible

As a Canadian, I am shocked and appalled. Make this an issue, American friends. Spread the word.
John Cooper commented:
I prefer Ayn Rand’s analysis of that phrase. She wrote that whether one believes man was created by a supreme or by nature, the fact is that certain rights are necessary for individuals to survive among other people. When thought of the correct way, “individual rights” don’t depend upon one’s religion.
Just_Saying commented:
Obummer thinks he’s the creator, and he knows he wouldn’t have written THAT document!!

this creature will go down as the the President who hated America and tried to destroy it. what a useless excuse for a human being. and the American public is going to be stuck with this doffus for another two years.
John Cooper commented:
not sure what happened to the word “being” after supreme…

Maybe it was on the teleprompter and he zapped it away with his stinky eye.

Heaven dont want him,and Hell wont take him because satans afraid he’ll take over……

Interesting that he also said “no matter which way the political winds shift, I will stand with you…” as he is quoted in his book saying to Muslims.
Do these rights extend to white Christians? Just Curious, O?

Dan commented:
Look at how he pouts and blinks several times before reading the sentence with the omitted phrase.
Not a mistake, but a deliberate omission.
Fuzzy commented:
Certainly not an accident. He believes that he and his big government progressive cronies are the only power, that they and they alone are qualified and capable of giving (and taking away) our rights (I’m surprised he used the word “inalienable”; maybe he didn’t know what it meant?). He’s a piece of progressive crap.
Tim H commented:
Just another example of his muslim heritage. He doesn’t believe in God/Creator, just Allah
down with dems commented:
And if he’s Mr. Constitutional scholar / visiting prof, shouldn’t he also know the Declaration of Independence? He’s botched both of these documents REPEATEDLY… doesn’t say much for President Spock.
Marsh commented:
God. His marxist rhetoric reminds me of a communist dictator. It’s so laced with obvious subtext that it’s completely impossible to ignore. And make no mistake that his cultist followers know exactly what he’s talking about and are behind it 110%.
Hedgehog commented:
Have a close look at the Obamadollar. Is “In God We Trust” on it? I didn’t think so. His omission of “they are endowed by their Creator” was intentional because as a Communist he does not believe that rights are endowed by the Creator. He believes that rights are conferred by the state, and he would be loathe to say anything that would tend to undermine his omnipotence. HE IS A COMMUNIST! HE SHOULD BE IMPEACHED IMMEDIATELY! HE SHOULD BE PROSECUTED FOR TREASON! INSTEAD THEY WANT TO PUT HIS ARROGANT MUG ON THE DOLLAR BILL! GOD! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
DINORight commented:
I am thankful that someone is watching and listening to him…….I can’t stand to hear him – his voice drones on and on and on, saying nothing.
These omissions are planned. He wants to re-write the Constitution, and discard the Declaration, like Wilson before him, as an old, obsolete document.
This man hates America and all it stands for. The statement he makes at the end reflects his socialist/Marxist dream of “social justice.” True equality is in the US Constitution as our Founders wrote it – and wrote ABOUT it in the Federalist Papers.
Obama is a nightmare. Remember in November – AND in 2012!!
jainphx commented:
All this would be over if the “ELITES’ in our party would just join us in asking for his papers. Whether he was born in this country or not, we the people are owed the truth. Since when is hiding his paper trail past allowed, especially when citizens in this country, demand the truth. The powers that be have belittled all who cry for these papers, match that with the vitriol over O’Donnell by the establishment in the media.
Tokyo Rove in minutes had reams of papers on her, but in 20 months can’t find even an editorial he supposedly wrote as editor of the school paper, do they think we are that stupid? They must because they keep this crap up.

I don’t think this cretin was too happy about having to read this.
Blue Collar Todd commented:
I greatly appreciate the use of my tip.
I’m with those that think this was intentional. If it was not, then we have to assume he is incompetent and not qualified to be President.
MochaLite commented:
This is just so sickening. God forgive us.
MochaLite commented:
Also, “they are endowed” demands an endower! You just know that he wanted to say “by their government”!

#29, the anti-Christ won’t be as incompetent as Obama has been so he’s not the anti-Christ – at least not yet. Obama’s reign is suffering badly though which could be interpreted as the sword wound referred to in Revelation.
The anti-Christ won’t rise to ultimate power until he makes a deal with the Devil – the deal that the Devil tried to make with Christ after His baptism (Mat 4:8-9).

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
That pause is where it was and he went off prompter and skipped it. And not by accident.

Conservative Ken commented:
It WAS an accident. He actually meant to say
G–Damn Creator. That’s the WAY it was taught to him at Jerry Wright’s Church. Just like they taught him not to put his hand on his heart during the National Anthem. Shoot it wasn’t until just a couple years ago that his wife was proud of America.
Seriously, One has to wonder if the Prophet John wrote about Barrack Hussein Obama 2000 years ago.
The plans this man has are very frightening indeed. No matter how right we are or how much he is exposed 1/3 of the Nation will follow him blindly. They have been indoctrinated since childhood and are dependent on benefits from the Government for their survival. If you are a threat to Obama, then you are a threat to their entitlements. They are unequipped to think freely or to survive independently in American society.
Obama has Pavlov’s bell in his possession and when he rings it they expect to be fed.

The lord has designated your place quite clearly. powder is dry.
Kevin P commented:
Constituional scholar huh? What a piece of work.
He should be laughed and ridiculed and made to leave office in shame. This was no accident.
Dan Quayle was ridiculed for years for spelling a vegetable in a technically correct way. This is not correct any way you look at it.
Valerie commented:
The phrase “by their Creator” is important because the endowment of rights is NOT by the State. Rights granted by any human agency can be taken away.
Little Nemo commented:
look at that idiot. I can’t even click on the movie as his voice is worse than torture. One thing is clear… He’s a traitor. He’s not American.
He may have been born in Hawaii, but nobody who embraces our culture would EVER take that phrase out. Its unthinkable.

Note to moderator: your Youtube clip has been hacked. When I first viewed it and copied and posted it to Facebook the idiotic racist screed on the right half of the clip WAS NOT THERE. I even replayed it a few times and observed how Obama paused, frowned, blinked a few times, and proceeded to finish the quote without the “by their creator” phrase. When I went back and watched your posted Youtube about an hour later, the hateful screed had appeared. WTF?
lyle commented:
Ann Coulter defends Obama against charges that he’s a Muslim by saying she knows for a fact he’s an atheist.
She says Obama attended Reverend Wright’s anti-white, anti-American un-Christian church as a political act. He didn’t object to the racialist message because he was never a Christian in the first place.
Is he trying to prove Ann Coulter right?
The Elector of Saxony commented:
That phrase is probably not in the Kenyan declaration of independence. I’ve said it before, he’s an alien president from an alien culture.
No person named Hussein or Obama has any kinship to those who authored the Declaration. Why would he give a tinkers Damn for those men or their recorded history? Our founding documents may as well have been written in Sanskrit or hieroglyphs for all the attention men named Hussein will ever pay them.

Josh commented:
It is the most important part about the whole constitution. What kind of idiot would forget something like that?
He is not an idiot. His actions speak loud. Jesus says to judge a man by his fruit (his actions) instead of his claims. What Obama does and doesn’t do is a reflection of what is in his heart. Too bad my fellow Americans got dooped into the cult of personality and voted for Obama. Obama lectures the public when he is interviewed. He doesn’t connect with others, he just likes to impose his will. He also likes to acknowledge those who greatly honor him. That is a characteristic of a narcissist.
God have mercy on this nation. If he gets another term, the New World Order will destroy our Bill of Rights via the Fabian model and the Hegelian dialectic.

If this guy divides the city of Jerusalem in a peace treaty, we are all screwed.
“On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. All who lift it will surely hurt themselves. And all the nations of the earth will gather against it.” Zechariah 12:3
The rumor is that he is getting Israel to concede East Jerusalem while promising Israel security (a nuclear umbrella) from her Arab neighbors. The eastern part of Jerusalem is a spoil of war won by Israelis during the six day war. The city will be taken from the Israelis and divided. Jerusalem is that city. The Palestinians have already declared it to be theirs while the UN says that it is a city which belongs to the world.
“Behold a day is coming for the Lord , when the spoil taken from you will be divided in your midst. For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped. Half of the city shall go out into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city.” Zechariah 14:1-2

Why is he still around After all the Kennedys aren’t, Reagan was nearly not.So what is the problem? The Dems are going to change the constitution, gerrymander, maybe declare martial law etc etc so that America will be stuffed. Ever thought why Obambi is still in Afghanistan even though he doesnt want to be? If all the troops come home there could conceivably be a coup so he gets them to stay there to fight a war he doesn’t believe in. He doesn’t even want the troops to vote and his DOJ is trying their best to ensure this. Criminal behaviour by crminal Chicago thugs.
Red commented:
He does this on purpose just to stoke up the opposition. He’s a sadist.

This anti-American, Godless dictator shows his true beliefs from time to time. In this case, he again shows his hatred of God and denies the creator. At other times, his bigoted racism shines forth. Also, his hatred of those who are not in the political elite. Living proof that affirmative action does not result in a person of character and education, but indoctrinated in hateful liberalism.

tanstaafl commented:
What a crock, Barack.
Not only neglecting to mention that “inalienable rights” come from a source beyond human ken, but, in the next breath, referencing life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as “promises to be kept” ASIF you and your hyper-government minions were the source of freedom.
Which is why you call the Bill of Rights (a list of checks on government) a litany of negative liberties and would happily supplant it with Jabba the Hutt government as the source of positive human liberties.
The Founders were well aware that what is granted by men can be taken away by men.
Vapid, meaningless rhetorical nonsense in this short Obama clip.

Jainphx,
Every single member of Congress has a certified copy of his legitimate Kenyan birth certificate. They received these by the end of August. The fact that they’re feigning ignorance, means they are aiding him. Even the courts. They believe they will never pay a price. They are covering for themselves, because they know if it comes out now, there will be hell to pay for all of them.
What about the parents of a soldier who died? What about the spouse of a soldier who died, or the child of a mother or father who died?
They were warned there were questions about his lack of eligibility before the election. The right thing to do would have been to find out the truth, before he could victimize the country the way he has. But, they were cowards, all becuase of this monster’s skin color. And he is a monster. I hate these people, who allowed this. I hate FOX(FIX,) news, they aided and abetted him. They all need to be punished for what they’ve done. We are going to fight and see to it.

There can be no doubt about the intentional nature of the omission of the “Creator” as the grounding of our inalienable rights. Clearly, Obama and the Democrats want the State to be the sole and arbitrary decider of our rights.
