Obama Orders Phrase ‘Under God’ to be Banned on all Government Property
- Thread starter jeager106
- Start date
Obama does something I like?
I don't believe it!
In a country with a secular government & citizens of many faiths & disbeliefs, that slogan is the opposite of unifying.
I say we return to our roots, & reclaim the motto on the Continental dollar & Fugio cent......
"Mind your business"
(That one feels like it should end with an exclamation point.)
The other slogan from back in the I like is.....
"We are one"

Obama Orders Phrase ‘Under God’ to be Banned on all Government Property

Bold type isn't mine but a quote from the article.
F.W.I.W.
Is the article true? Don't know. Read and reach your own conclusions.
Snopes says it's false.

Is yet another site with the same information.
I suspect a bit of google would find more for those that might feel Bam-Bam is attacking
"God" and/or religion.
Bam is on his way out and can commit such acts with impunity.

Rest assured Hildabeast WILL follow suit.
Conservative or liberal one MUST vote with a dose of common sense and put
partisan politics aside.
I've voted liberal in the past for the better candidate.
Then I sobered up.
O.K. I'm joking. I HAVE voted for the better liberal candidate and likely will again.

It's fake.

Dam it! Just when I was celebrating!
The War on Christmas this year better be nuclear.

I checked and snopes says it IS false.
So who does one believe on the internet?
Or in the newspapers, t-v, radio...................................????
All the above have political leanings.
Snopes isn't anymore reliable than any other news source with a political bent.
Snopes is notoriously liberal.
Snopes receives funding from an undisclosed source. The source is undisclosed because Snopes refuses to disclose that source. The Democratic Alliance, a funding channel for uber-Leftist (Marxist) Billionaires (George Soros etc.), direct funds to an "Internet Propaganda Arm" pushing these views. The Democratic Alliance has been reported to instruct Fundees to not disclose their funding source.
The Snopes site claims it receives nothing from anyone.
ReallY?

The only sites I saw from Google on this to "confirm" the above were from "questionable sources", and their postings were several years ago. IOW, it appears to be recycled right-wing propaganda.
I have a better test for legitimacy than Snopes.
Consider.....
If Obama really issued such an order, it would be news....big news.
It would be all over Drudge, NYT, NPR, Breitbart, & perhaps even Alternet.
But alas, it's not.
@Revoltinest:
Et. al.
I agree 100%
IF it were true the news, no matter the political bent would be ALL OVER
such a story.
Internet = who knows the truth without checking?
Extraordinary claims DEMAND extraordinary proof.
When I was in college, not THAT long ago information from the net was
prohibited for research papers.
Really. When I was in college electricity and flush toilets were common.

Still makes for an exciting thread, eh?@Revoltinest:

I love every opportunity to trot out our original mottos.
What a great country!
And liberal media sources aren't biased?????????????????????????????
Really?

Personally, as a devout atheist, *giggles*, I don't see why it matters if "Under god" is on stuff. Who cares? Bigger fish... always bigger fish...
Silly mouse!
Even the smallest detail deserves argument.
As they say....
The fighting never so vicious as when the stakes are so low.

But there's quite a difference between citing opinions versus out and out lying.
