(Agence France-Presse) WMAL's Chris Plante, a conservative radio host and frequent Fox News guest, speculated on Tuesday that President Barack Obama had purposefully taken “under God” out of the Gettysburg Address but would not have removed the phrase “under Allah.”
A number of conservative websites had expressed outrage on Tuesday after learning that the president read an original version of President Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, which did not include the words “under God.”
The reading was a part of a 150th anniversary celebration website and filmmaker Ken Burns specifically asked the president to read the “Nicolay Version” that was written before the phrase “under God” was added.
