Obama Skips Easter Greeting - Commemorated All Muslim Holidays
2011-04-25
Fox News first caught the blunder and put it into context that makes the omission insulting to Christians. The mistake is odd enough to call into question just what ObamaÂ’s priorities are.

By comparison, the White House has released statements recognizing the observance of major Muslim holidays and released statements in 2010 on Ramadan, Eid-ul-Fitr, Hajj, and Eid-ul-Adha.

The White House . . . did release an eight-paragraph statement heralding Earth Day. Likewise, the presidentÂ’s weekend address mentioned neither Good Friday or Easter.

Obama, Fox notes, did head out to church yesterday and held an Easter prayer breakfast at the White House last week.

Obama is on a roll for religious holiday greeting screw ups. Fox News writes:

In 2010, Obama was criticized for releasing an all-inclusive Easter greeting. He reached out to Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and people of no faith at all in a statement about a holiday that is uniquely Christian.

#7  Obama's Muslim faith is starting to look like an analog of Kennedy's philandering. Years after his presidency is over the press will admit they knew about it all along, but withheld the information because we voters are too stupid and parochial to handle such grown up matters.

#1  The picture on Drudge of lightening striking the White House Easter evening says it all. BHO is no more a Christian than he is truthful, rather every act, every use of power, feeds his friends, enriches his allies, buys power blocks and beggars the American economy and the country he may have been born in but does not love. More and more I see the veiled motive of revenge and elitist disdain for America and the West, and his determination to be "transformational" but in a destructive way to punish the system he has always plotted and secretly raged against.
