The 2012 Republican Party platform mentions “God” twelve times. The 2012 Democratic Party platform does not mention “God” at all, but does mention Obama, 141 times. The Republican platform mentions Mitt Romney only once, in the Preamble.
The Republican platform reaffirms “that our rights come from God, are protected by government, and that the only just government is one that truly governs with the consent of the governed.”
The Democratic platform mentions rights almost always in relation to collective bargaining for unions, Indian rights, cultural rights or gay rights. Under “Rights and Freedoms”, the only general right not specific to a single group that is mentioned, is the Right to Bear Arms and the Democratic Party calls for curtailing the Second Amendment with “reasonable legislation.” The only mention of universal rights is abroad. All rights, it is implied come from the administration of Barack Obama.
The Republican platform mentions the “Constitution” 61 times. The Democratic platform mentions it six times. Once to support a constitutional amendment for campaign finance reform. Once to opposite constitutional amendments barring gay marriage. Twice to limit partnerships with religious groups. Once more to applaud Obama’s Supreme Court picks. And finally one last time, the old document is mentioned, in defense of maintaining a soft policy toward Islamist terrorists.
There’s only room for one god in this platform and he makes his own rights and writes his own constitutions. And you have no rights but those he gives you. Chicago is the new Jerusalem.

Bee's note:
I often wondered what the "last straw" would be that would contribute to Obama's demise and wake up America. The need for the DNC to re-add the holy Name God and force the Democrats to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital have revealed the intent of this Party and Americans are choking on these issues - more so than the economy, socialist healthcare (known as Obamacare), embracing Islam, numerous Executive Orders that by-pass our Congress, pushing Israel back to the 67 borders, splitting the City of David, Jerusalem in half with the Palestinians gaining a piece of property that does not belong to them, nor will it ever belong to them!
The removal of God, Jerusalem, Hamas, etc. from the DNC Platform was intentional - not some accident overlooked by those who wrote it and its time everyone noticed the true intentions of the Obama administration. To remove Jerusalem, one first has to remove the name of God, because you cannot separate the two. The deception of this administration knows no bounds! Unfortunately, for Obama, Americans did notice and loudly demonstrated their objections (much to Obama's surprise), forcing Obama to make a call and have the DNC make the proper corrections.
When Christians pray, they can often be heard saying "Even so, come quickly Lord". And, who hasn't heard a Jew say "Next year, Jerusalem". America is a Judeo-Christian nation - "one nation, under God, for liberty and justice for all". Justice for all is for all peoples of faith and for those with no faith. Americans are free, not under bondage of Islamic Sharia-laws and we do not cut off the hands, heads, feet, or stone to death anyone who wishes to worship or not worship, as they please.
Why do I mention this? After all, Americans are fully aware of the First Amendment. Perhaps I mention this issue because the Democrats interviewed yesterday kept saying "no big deal" - "why are the Republicans making a big deal out of our Platform?"
The big deal is this: Obama has been allowed (for whatever reasons) to mock our Constitution without one check or comment from our Congress these past four years. His undeserved "power" has gone beyond the role of a President and has given him the idea that nothing is impossible - not even over-ruling the very backbone and fiber of the United States. Yesterday, Obama learned that "In God we Trust" is not meaningless to most Americans; he learned that the majority of Americans recognize Israel's right to exist, choose its own capital city, and has the support of these United States.
God will not be mocked, Mr. Obama. Americans do not turn to Chicago, or the government to pray; nor do we take lightly your betrayal of our only ally in the Middle East.
This shall be your undoing when Americans vote in November.
That's it ..........

PS: I mention Hamas, because that terrorist group was not re-added to the Platform; does Obama now wish to embrace a terrorist organization with much blood on their hands, as he has done with the Muslim Brotherhood? No big deal?!
