How do you verify if this is true?

Looks incomplete?

Why is Obama continuing warrant-less wiretaps? And considering extending the policy to domestic only calls? Why is going back on his word on transparency and "state-secrets"? Why are we still sending troops to war? 20K+ more to Aghanistan, in Iraq until at least next year with an open ended security agreement? Why is Obama seeking control of the Internet? Did you know that he wants the power to shut down ISPs in the event of an "emergency", which of course is never spelled out? Why is Treasury talking about seizing control over any company it deems unworthy, even if it doesn't take stimulus money? Why does the stimulus bill take away states's rights? This is not my fantasy, it is your fantasy that it is not happening. Ask yourself the question, how did the Germans ever become Nazis? They had useful idiots like you enabling the chancellor.

Just to belabor my point.

1. Jeffersons letter that is the foundation of the argument of separation of Church and State is the equivalent of a speech or letter from a contemporary politician (Though I suspect Jefferson had more integrity).

2. The "journals" that you referred to are copied into the legislation, The committee appointed to prepare a recommendation to these states, to set apart a day of thanksgiving, brought in a report; which was agreed to as follows.

First the point being whoever claims that the United States was not founded on Judaeo-Christian principles and beliefs was woefully deficient of evidence, short of a letter from Jefferson, similar to your speech argument.

Second, the wording and invocation of G-d and Jesus Christ in government documents is evidenced in most of the founding texts, discussions, meeting notes, etc. To ask for evidence of the founding of this country on principles of this religion and then to ignore the tomes of evidence that exist in the Library of Congress and settle on a singular note from Jefferson is dishonest. And on Jefferson's opinion, there are many writings from him, even as a Deist, , that far from discount the need, but actually support the idea, for a national religion, just not one proscribed by the government,

Sorry, but these are not journals of a particular politician:

Mr. [William] Clingan, a delegate from Pensylvania, attended and took his seat.

Congress proceeded to the choice of a president; and, the ballots being taken,

The Honble. Henry Laurens was elected.1

[Note 1: 1 Roberdeau wrote: "Henry Laurens, Vice President of South Carolina, a worthy, sensible, indefatigable Gentleman, was this day chosen by a unanimous vote, except his own, President of Congress." Pennsylvania Archives, First Series, V, 735.]

The committee appointed to prepare a recommendation to these states, to set apart a day of thanksgiving, brought in a report; which was agreed to as follows ... (then the text)

Every year we celebrate Cinco de Mayo - this year, as last year we will celebrate it. Makes the Mexicans mad around my parts. But instead of tacos, I think Burger King Whoppers and Margheritas will be on the menu. This from a country whose national anthem should be La Cucaracha.

Notice this ain't happening in Texas? I feel sorry for how helpless those folks felt in Binghamton. If only the mere threat of someone having a weapon existed in that scenario. And this guy thinks he's a comedian using these unfortunate events to advance his agenda. Funny how no-gun-zones become free-fire-zones while defenseless citizens are attacked.

Good luck getting the warhead, if you got that kind of money, be sure the Obama Administration will tax you until you can't afford it.

BBC - State sponsored socialist media.
NPR - State sponsored socialist media
NYT - Soon to be State sponsored, but even before it receives its "bailout", socialist media.

Echo Chamber anyone?

It is classic liberalism, not social liberalism or progressive liberalism or progressiveness or whatever avoidance phrase adopted by socialists in drag.

Forasmuch as it is the indispensable duty of all men to adore the superintending providence of Almighty God; to acknowledge with gratitude their obligation to him for benefits received, and to implore such farther blessings as they stand in need of; and it having pleased him in his abundant mercy not only to continue to us the innumerable bounties of his common providence, but also to smile upon us in the prosecution of a just and necessary war, for the defence and establishment of our unalienable rights and liberties; particularly in that he hath been pleased in so great a measure to prosper the means used for the support of our troops and to crown our arms with most signal success: It is therefore recommended to the legislative or executive powers of these United States, to set apart Thursday, the eighteenth day of December next, for solemn thanksgiving and praise; that with one heart1 and one voice the good people may express the grateful feelings of their hearts, and consecrate themselves to the service of their divine benefactor; and that together with their sincere acknowledgments and offerings, they may join the penitent confession of their manifold sins, whereby they had forfeited every favour, and their humble and earnest supplication that it may please God, through the merits of Jesus Christ, mercifully to forgive and blot them out of remembrance; that it may please him graciously to afford his blessing on the governments of these states respectively, and prosper the public council of the whole; to inspire our commanders both by land and sea, and all under them, with that wisdom and fortitude which may render them fit instruments, under the providence of Almighty God, to secure for these United States the greatest of all human blessings, independence and peace; that it may please him to prosper the trade and manufactures of the people and the labour of the husbandman, that our land may yet yield its increase; to take schools and seminaries of education, so necessary for cultivating the principles of true liberty, virtue and piety, under his nurturing hand, and to prosper the means of religion for the promotion and enlargement of that kingdom which consisteth "in righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost."
