The religious right continues to claim that President Obama is not a Christian, that he refuses to talk about our “Creator,” that he omits mentions of God and Jesus from his speeches.
Um, I wonder which channel and world they have been living in while the rest of us know without a doubt that Obama is a Christian and that he has, for the last three+ years mentioned God and Jesus.
Oh, wait, they watch Fox News Channel. Enough said.
Right-wing bigot Phyllis Schlafly refuses to acknowledge facts, continuing to claim that Obama omits the word “creator:
A few weeks ago, Phyllis Schlafly showed up on the American Family Radio’s “AFA Today” program to promote her new book “No Higher Power: Obama’s War on Religious Freedom” where she made the claim that “every time [President Obama] quotes from the Declaration of Independence, he omits the word ‘Creator.’”
As we noted at the time, the claim was demonstrably false … but that has not stopped Schlafly from saying it, as she repeated it today while appearing on Sandy Rios’ radio program:
Every time he recites the Declaration of Independence, he omits the word “Creator.” Now we all know what’s in the Declaration and it’s very strange, you can’t blame it on a slip of the tongue or blame it on the teleprompter because he does it all the time.
But, hey, we know how the Republicans are with facts, don’t we?
