No Churchgoing Christmas for the First Family
Time ^ | December 23, 2009 | Amy Sullivan

The Senate vote on final passage of health reform almost scuttled their plans, but it looks like the First Family will still make it to Hawaii for Christmas. They've had a whirlwind holiday season so far, starting with the lighting of the National Christmas Tree, through hosting more than 50,000 people for 27 parties and open houses, and ending with a visit by the First Lady, Malia and Sasha, and the family's dog Bo, to deliver cookies to the Children's National Medical Center. The Obamas have also started their own holiday traditions in their new home, adding a Christmas wishing tree to the decorations festooning the White House.

But there's one common Christmas practice not on the First Family's schedule: a visit to Christmas Eve church services.

..The Obamas have attended Sunday services in Washington three times this year

It’s not a bad idea for a first or second grade Sunday School class. Maybe I’ll remember it if I teach that age again. I really like older kids, who don’t need help cutting and glueing things!

For the White House, though, it seems rather infantile.

Check the local mosques, or the ones in Hawaii.

Note the lack of /sarc> tag.

Next year, let's all send the White House a Happy Ramadan card.

Maybe festooned with photos of dead or beheaded U.S. / Nato troops.

Sign it "With Love from Mahmoud Ahmadinejad."

Cheers!

Any way to help wake the masses and push approval polls south helps the cause. Freepers already are on to this. FR seems to get many hits from other sources.

In fact, Obama seems to be AWAY from the White House as much as possible.

Perhaps he doesnt want to be in a target zone??? Perhaps he knows more than we would care to know?

No, it’s just Obama’s disdain for the White House. He has the power, but doesn’t want the history that goes with it.
