Recently I’ve noticed several things that the Progressives are having trouble with. Well, actually a LOT of things, but this article will focus on just a few of them.
First of all, Obama, like most Progressives, seems to have a problem identifying the U.S. Constitution.
In his State of the Union address, Obama stated that “We find unity in our incredible diversity, drawing on the promise enshrined in our Constitution: the notion that we are all created equal….”
Darn near made me want to stand up and salute, (something our POTUS could use some lessons in, by the way). There’s a problem here, however. It turns out that “the notion that we are all created equal” is not “enshrined in our Constitution”—it’s from the Declaration of Independence.
Doesn’t say much for Obama’s grasp of the Constitution, when he confuses the U.S. Constitution, with the Declaration of Independence
This mistaken attribution is an understandable faux pas for your average “Joe six-pack,” but Obama’s supposed to be a Harvard-trained Constitutional lawyer. It doesn’t say much for Harvard Law School, or Obama’s grasp of the Constitution, when he confuses the U.S. Constitution, with the Declaration of Independence.
(Note to the White House (and Harvard Law School): they are two totally different documents, with different wording, and different purposes. They are not interchangeable. I know—bummer).
One can imagine Obama’s final exam on Constitutional Law:
Harvard Law professor: “Mister Obama, what are the opening words of the U.S. Constitution?”
Obama: “Uh, ‘When in the course of human events….’”
Harvard Law professor: “Close enough! You pass!”
No wonder these folks have so much trouble following the Constitution.
