This is stirring a lot of heat. What Obama should be doing is inserting 'Thanking God' back in the Thanksgiving Address. To do so would be respecting the founders traditions and heritage.President Washington thanked God in 1789. President Washington and all of the other Founders did everything they could to secure the blessings of God for our country. What Obama has done is shear blasphemy: For Fourth Straight Year, Obama's Thanksgiving Message Doesn't Thank God
Those two young punks running Breitbart website need to take about 15 years off to grow up....
I am not religious at all, but I don't know why so many people hate 'god'? I am not offended by Christmas decorations or when people say god bless. As for the President leaving out thanking god, it strikes me as odd.
Nobody hates "god"..How do you hate something that you don't believe exists? I guess I hate leprechauns and the tooth fairy. I hate people, real, live, visible, audible (unlike the xian god) people who act as if they and the god they believe in should receive special preference from our secular government.
I don't know why people who claim to not be religious can't seem to understand this.

I don't really see where this is "stirring a lot of heat". LOL
All these breathless "outraged" pieces are simply aimed at and preaching to their already converted RWNJ audiences.
I EARNED 100% OF what what on the table. Some god had NOTHING to do with it.
Well, apparently you missed the point. You might have earned 100% of what you worked for but you certainly couldn't be taxed at 100% along with all of your fellow citizens and pay for what you obligated yourselves to.
God won't be coming out to help you or turn your water into wine or to pay for any of those obligations, you're on your own Jack.
No, YOU agreed with the OP which indicates you NEED the President to say the word "god" as if he was your spiritual leader.
But then you flip flop and say:
"There are ways a country's leader can make a speech that would be for all people of all faiths."
Well, that would be NOT mentioning ANY religion, faith, or "god".
The President should address all AMERICANS, NOT thier faith..
Only those who want him as spiritual leader need him to mention their faith.
Hebus.....you sure do a lot of assuming. As well as injecting your own invectives into other peoles posting.
