Obama Omits ‘Creator’ When Citing ‘Inalienable Rights’ of LGBTs

In a statement released Friday, President Barack Obama declared that "LGBT persons are endowed with" what he called "inalienble rights," but omitted the word "Creator" from what clearly was an allusion to the famous language of the Declaration of Independence.

The president's June 17 statement was in response to a U.N. resolution on human rights, sexual orientation and gender identity.

“(T)his marks a significant milestone in the long struggle for equality, and the beginning of a universal recognition that LGBT persons are endowed with the same inalienable rights -- and entitled to the same protections -- as all human beings,” the statement said.

The Declaration of Independence reads: “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.” (Bolding added).

Friday’s statement was the third time this year that the president has used the “inalienable rights” language and omitted the word “Creator.”

I suppose, if you wanted to get "technical" about it, that LGBT people are indeed "endowed" with the "inalienable right" to be perverted, anti-life, loudmouthed creeps. That's what our Constitution is all about, for good or bad. However, I don't believe they have the "inalienable right" to shove it in our faces every chance they get. Ann Coulter is right - we're headed for mob rule, and it's usually the loudest mob that rules - the loudest, and the one least afraid of using force to accomplish their goals.

BHO also seems intent on rewriting the Preamble to the Constitution. Hey, wasn't he a Constitutional Law "professor" at Columbia? Or was it Harvard? Who knows, his records are sealed tighter than a clam protecting a pearl. Chances are he knows absolutely nothing about the document that he swore an oath to "preserve, protect, and defend" (even though he botched that oath - should have been an omen of things to come).

Next time some liberal decides to lecture me on why gay marriage should be legalized, I'm gonna punch him in the face. I'm so sick of the left, I don't care about civility any more.

It was Justice Roberts who botched the oath. He got all the words in there, just not in the right order. Obama stopped at the point Roberts made the mistake, and then said it correctly.

Also, how exactly are LGBT people anti-life?

I don't have a poll but I would render a guess that a significant percentage are pro-abortion. Anyone have stats on that? And then they like to involve themselves in a dangerous life-style choice leading to a statistically shorter life, and, that also results in no natural children. Just the gender/sex confusion and conflict to those adopted.

I note you are a member 1 day 3 hours. I see GaybyGod, gay CIA are all quite new. What is the main board you guys hang out on? Do you know these people or only via internet?

Why

Submitted by You on Wed, 06/22/2011 - 6:42pm.

would a group who cannot have children on their own (at least not with their selected partners), and a group that supports and fights FOR adoption rights of LGBT individuals, EVER be for abortion? That makes no logical sense.

First of all, no one is actually pro-abortion. Except maybe a very small and very troubled group of people who are also in favor of population reduction.
Second of all, I have never seen this on any of the LGBT rights literature.
I HAVE seen support of condom use, but that is a health issue more than it is a pregnancy prevention one. So unless you consider Trojans to be an abortion aide, I really don't understand your view.
On what do you base this guess?

I don't see either of those members listed. Were their posts deleted from this thread?

Hello You.

It seems to line up with the liberal agenda such as in the DNC. I could be wrong & have never seen a poll result for it. Would be interesting.

Yes if you are pro-choice you are indeed pro-abortion. There is no need for abortion really. If the mom's life is truly threatened doctors are mandated to do what ever is needed to save her life. That is not even considered abortion if that is the case (from what I recall).

RE your last question, there has been a recent spike in pro-homosexual supporters recently so I was curious if you are friends or something. they were not on this thread.

Well, at least Boy Blunder is

Well, at least Boy Blunder is consistant.................he did the same thing a few weeks ago in some other venue................he probably want's to say 'under Allah', or 'endowed by Allah' or something similiar, but he's still a little apprehensive to do it, although I'm sure that he might try it before his time is up. And the only other time he thinks about the defininition of 'endowed' is when he makes one of his visits to some Chicago gay club that he is a member of....................

Inalienable rights?

You don't have to have "sex" to survive. But you LGBT's go out and have as much sex as you want, BUT, I don't want to know about it. Deal? I'll keep my sex life out of the public eye and you do the same.

I think the voters will have less patience with him than God. This "man" quite literally goes out of his way to offend Christians. Who raised him? How could any intelligent person possibly think he is Christian? That is VERY offensive to God to leave Him out. Ones conscious would not allow their own mouth to say that if they were spiritually a Christian. Just no way. As a matter of FACT, you would submit to dying before denying God. This is absolute PROOF he is a counterfeit "Christian." What country exactly does he THINK he is president of? He is a disgrace to our founders and opposes their views at most every turn.

'Who raised him??' Ahhh,

'Who raised him??' Ahhh, c'mon, Max, you KNOW who raised him!!! Look at the laundry list of commies, Mooooooooooooooslems, socialists, America-haters, race-baiters, faggots, and dysfunctional but dangerous dopes.................is it any surprise that this poser is the way he is???

Yep thanks!

I was hoping someone would answer!

I forget, what happened w/his socialist mom, that he was sent to his Grand Parents in HI? I don't recall exactly what the deal was there. What did his mom do, where, and why did she die? So he lived with his GP till college? What was their story, jobs, etc?

This Wiki entry is very light on USA family info! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_of_Barack_Obama
Can't believe his grandfather was in the military. Obama did not learn much from him!

Obama referred to his mother as the dominant figure in his formative years. "The values she taught me continue to be my touchstone when it comes to how I go about the world of politics."

His mom: Ann Dunham

Mother of Barack Obama born in 1942, died in 1995. Born Stanley Ann Dunham, she was an American anthropologist who specialized in economic anthropology and rural development. She earned her Ph.D from the University of Hawaii and worked with the United States Agency for International Development, the Ford Foundation, and Women's World Banking, championing microcredit for the world’s poor.
