WND's Farah: “Creator” omission “was an attempt at deicide by Obama”

Hanging out in St. Maarten has not mellowed Joseph Farah out.

Filing his September 22 column from the Caribbean island paradise, where he's leading like-minded folks on a "Tea Party at Sea" following last weekend's “Taking America Back” convention, the WorldNetDaily editor and CEO goes into freak-out mode about President Obama's paraphrasing of the Declaration of Independence's section about “unalienable rights” without mentioning the part about those rights being “endowed by their Creator”:

This was not an accident.

It was not a slip of the tongue.

It was not an oversight.

It was not an innocent mistake.

This was an attempt at deicide by Obama.

This was an effort to strip from America's national heritage a direct connection with God Almighty.

Even worse, this was Obama's way of stripping from America's consciousness the notion that liberty's underpinnings require direct accountability and responsibility to the Creator, not man-made government.

Our rights do not descend from Obama, much as he might like.

Our rights do not descend from government, much as he might like.

Our rights are not endowed by evolution, much as he might like.

They are endowed by our Creator.

That's a key word that the Obama mentality would like us all to forget.

He clearly doesn't want Americans to be thankful and responsible to their Creator. He would like Americans to be indebted as subjects to him and the power structure he represents. In other words, we would like us to forget the sacrifices of our forefathers over the last 234 years, shirk our pledge to independence and freedom and be like the other nations of the world where the ultimate authority about right and wrong, law and lawlessness, liberty and servitude is defined by an elite class of mortal men.

Obama let it all hang out there with that simple act of omission.

But it wasn't merely an omission.

It was omission by commission.

Don't think for one minute that speech wasn't written in advance with an express purpose.

The purpose was to take America one more step away from God the Creator.

[...]

Obama reached a new height of subversion with his bastardization of these keywords from the Declaration of Independence. That betrayal of the founding document of our country – America's birth certificate, if you will – shows him not only unworthy of the office of the presidency, but unworthy of U.S. citizenship as well.

Farah thus wins the freak-out competition the right-wing media over Obama's omission. Such outrage, needless to say, ignores all the times Obama got the quote right and less-than-exact renditions of the phrase by conservatives.

Perhaps the next port of call on his Caribbean cruise will find Farah in a less vicious and hateful mood.
