I get it. God can only give people basic human rights. Not the US government (in your eyes). It boils down to a religious thing, does it not?
In the founding fathers eyes, not just 'our' eyes, as that is what they stated in the Declaration of Independence. Simple English, easy to interpret and understand. Meaning, the government can't take away, assign, or deal in any way, people's rights. Especially, for social justice engineering. That's what obama can't come to grips with, and also communists, marxists, leftists, socialists, welfare-ists.
People that want a 'socialist welfare paradise' should move to a country that is ruled by a communist manifesto; such as Russia?, because those ideas and ideologies are in direct conflict with what our founding fathers wrote in the constitution. You know, the one that you say is so good.
You don't like the idea of man's rights given to us from God? Good. Stay in Canada. Enjoy your rights being bandied about by the whims of your politicians. Good luck with that.
