Obama Ignores Easter

[BeenThinkin]

When is America going to wake up? I'm sick of all the panty-waist liberals and wishy-washy, fence straddling conservatives letting Obama get by with all of his junk. He runs with Socialists, Marxist, Communist and a pastor that uses God's name in vain in referring to America and he gets a pass.

Obama goes out of his way to recognize Muslim holy days and then fails to mention the most important Christian holiday, Easter. And then he claims to be a Christian! And it appears he gets another pass! WHY?

What will all of the liberal lovers do when we wake up some morning and the America that we have known and loved is no more?

Oh, yes I'm aware Obama went to church Sunday and another pastor of his choosing slams conservatives from the pulpit. If I had done that my church would lose it's 501(c)(3) rating in a heart beat.

Hurry up 2012. We need to get rid of all the occupants in the White House, including all of the conservatives, that no longer stand up for and care about America and what it has stood for in all the years of the past.

No, he did something for Easter.

Unfortunately his church wasn't the only one getting political:

What about Obama's snub of Easter?

His remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast were fabulous though. I have to give him that. It's too bad he didn't say anything, but then again, it seems people are keeping score against him to prove his Christianity.

I don't think he's a Muslim. He's just not good for America.

The White House hosted an Easter Egg Roll, and the president also hosted an Easter-themed prayer breakfast, at which he said this:

"I wanted to host this breakfast for a simple reason -- because as busy as we are, as many tasks as pile up, during this season, we are reminded that there's something about the resurrection -- something about the resurrection of our savior, Jesus Christ, that puts everything else in perspective.
"We all live in the hustle and bustle of our work... But then comes Holy Week. The triumph of Palm Sunday. The humility of Jesus washing the disciples' feet. His slow march up that hill, and the pain and the scorn and the shame of the cross. And we're reminded that in that moment, he took on the sins of the world -- past, present and future -- and he extended to us that unfathomable gift of grace and salvation through his death and resurrection.
"In the words of the book Isaiah: "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed."
"This magnificent grace, this expansive grace, this 'Amazing Grace' calls me to reflect. And it calls me to pray. It calls me to ask God for forgiveness for the times that I've not shown grace to others, those times that I've fallen short. It calls me to praise God for the gift of our son -- his Son and our Savior."

Had Obama issued an Easter proclamation, it would have been the first time since at least 1980 that a president had done so.

I'm not trying to prove or disapprove his Christianity as such, necessarily. I simply want the main stream media and the liberals to tell us why they don't hold him to the same rules that they have held other presidents to.

And for someone to deny that there is not a difference in Obama's favor, they need a seeing eye dog!

Come on Fife. It's all over the news. Why are you trying to cover for Obama. It's obvious it's a snub!


Your White House issues a letter recognizing every major Muslim feast day, scads of other religious, secular and cause-related occasions, and stays completely silent on Easter?

Obama skips statement on Easter; has commemorated all Muslim holidays...
Drudge Report

Jay Carney, White Press Secretary even said he didn’t know if Obama put out a statement or not! Oh yea!

Protect Obama... Protect Obama.... That needs to be the campaign slogan for him for 2012. Protect Obama!

Personally, I couldn't care less what Obama thinks about "Easter" (Astarte) or anything else, for that matter. But when we go after this guy let's make certain that we have all of our cute little Easter ducks in a row.

The Big O was out on the White House lawn Sunday participating in a long time White House Easter tradition.

[Aleks Fife]

I just like to be fair about. W never made an Easter sermon as President either :)

Again, he would be the First President to make a statement for almost a couple decades. I think networks are feeding into this "Is he really a Christian" frenzy.

He made comments in the Easter weekend prayer breakfast that were pretty exclusive to Christianity.

Now, he's not Apostolic. He's just as Christian as those Osteen types.

Actually, if we go about inventing stuff to attack Obama with we will end up "protecting" him in the long run. Some of this stuff just sounds shrill after a while. And, why do you say that Obama's White House is Fife's White House ("your White House")? I thought Alek made it pretty clear that he does not support the President's policies at all.

Lighten up, Bro. Obama did as much for Easter this year as any other President has done and probably a lot more than most. It's usually the First Lady who goes out on the lawn for the egg roll.

But then again... who cares? It's just a photo op thing. I'm more concerned about the way he and Geithner & Co. are printing trillions of dollars and the effect that will have on inflation, interest rates and the overall standing of the dollar in the world's markets.

We've got a lot bigger problems than whether or not Obama supports the Easter Bunny.

Pel, that wasn't me calling the White House, "yours." That was Thomas Peters of Catholic Vote.org.

And if I missed judged Fife's outlook on Obama's politics I apologize.

I'm just so concerned with this administration, and the condition of our nation, and the seemingly free pass on everything this man gets that I want to stand up and say my piece, whether anyone cares or not!

And my concern is not Obama supporting the Easter bunny but standing up and proclaiming the Christ of Easter to the world.

You are right about the Obama White House. And, I apologize for missing that you were quoting Catholic Vote.org.

The Big O does get a free pass. Joe Biden gets a free pass. If any Republican Vice President had said anything like the things Biden says all the time he or she would be ridiculed endlessly.

This is just the nature of the playing field where we find ourselves. It's not fair. The deck is stacked against us. The crowd (the Liberal media "elites") are booing and screaming at us. But at times, we do have the wind at our backs. We can beat these guys.

None of the disiciples did Easter Egg Hunts. :girlytantrum

Looks like they found there was a family bible. The birth certificate was it it.

Is the Biden example a liberal/conservative bend, or a sexism bend? For example, Sarah Palin would get clobbered by the MSM.

Then again, conservatives have quite a voice in the MSM, so nothing really goes unnoticed anymore, does it?

Biden gets jabbed by his own party all the time. I think people like him though, or his age and experience are a pardon for him. Something.

[Sam]

The President and his family attended a church on Easter that is pastored by a racist who is known for making statements like BHO's long time pastor and mentor Jeremiah Wright.

Really? Where did you hear that?

The pastor is politically motivated, similar to Rev. Franklin Graham, who also gave an interview Easter weekend. But racist? Similar to Jeremiah Wright?

Remember Dan Quayle as well? He didn't produce half the gaffes that Biden continuously pours out but he was lambasted unmercifully by an overtly hostile news media.

*This was long before the advent of FoxNews and a lot of the Internet, so Quayle was left on his own to just sort of twist in the wind.

God's People should not be celebrating Easter. God Never Ever told us to celebrate, honor, or even recongnize Easter.
Easter is a Pagan Holiday ... Easter celebrates Rabbits and Eggs ... it has nothing to do with God. Nothing.
There is NO SCRIPTURE for "RESURRECTION SUNDAY" either. Not scriptural. Nowhere does it tell us to celebrate his resurrection and it most definately does not tell us the day he rose. It only says he "rose on the third" day. It did not say in April and does not give a date ...

Stop Celebrating it .........

It's not biblical to celebrate it. Sandie, do you believe in following the scriptures?

Sunday School is not in the Bible! What are you gonna do about that?

Be careful MinisterShawn when you are holding a pin in your hand. You don't want to fall on it! You might punch out both eyes.
