Liberty, Freedom and the Right to Happiness

“Only God gives liberty, freedom and only God gives the right to happiness,”  according to Republican Michele Bachmann in a speech to fellow Republicans, where she referred to Democrats as “a cabal of radicals” who want to “pull the rug of freedom out from under us.” http://minnesotaindependent.com/58135/in-maryland-bachmann-calls-democrats-a-cabal-of-radicals I’m not sure if Us refers to Republicans or Americans.

I wonder if that’s the God that those of other religious persuasions believe in or if Michele Bachmann means only the God that Republican Americans believe in.  What about those who do not believe in a God? Will they never have liberty or freedom, or a right to happiness?  I even wonder if God-fearing Democrats miss out …

Reminds me of those old Superman movies where he fought for ‘truth, justice, and the American way.”
