Crush Liberalism

Obama getting his historical documents mixed up

Yessirree, that Constitutional law scholar currently wasting oxygen at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. had this nugget in his STFU SOTU speech the other night:

We find unity in our incredible diversity, drawing on the promise enshrined in our Constitution, the notion that we’re all created equal…

I don’t know how to break this to you, James Madison, but there is nothing about us being “created equal” in the Constitution.  That’s in the Declaration of Independence.  The closest thing that the Constitution comes to discussing “equally” is the 14th Amendment, which says that the laws of the land will be applied equally to all.  That is not the same thing as being “created equal”, now is it?  You’d think a Constitutional law scholar would kinda know that and stuff.

In fairness to Chairman Zero, he’s not the first liberal constitutional law scholar president to be hamhanded about it.  Remember this from Bubba during a campaign rally in 1996?

The last time I checked, the Constitution said, “of the people, by the people and for the people.”  That’s what the Declaration of Independence says.

Well, which was it: the Constitution or the Declaration of Independence?  Actually, neither: it was the Gettysburg Address.

You know, if I didn’t know any better, I’d swear that liberals only pretend to know and honor the Constitution!
