On Xfinity News, Comcast points out that "God" isn't part of the Democratic platform

Boo-freaking-hoo.

Of course Righteous Ryan has to express his outrage about it, and thank goodness that Comcast (and other media outlets, no doubt) is there to help throw a megaphone into the echo chamber.


Bravo, Dems. I've wanted to have God removed from party platforms for years. Thanks!

I'm a Christian, but this isn't a theocracy. There are lots of people in this country who don't believe in God.

In order to promote true religious freedom, a government has to separate itself from all religions, and find the middle ground that allows each person to worship as they choose.

I would think they'd be more concerned about that omission.
