Obamas seek new church as Easter nears

With Easter four days away, the Great Church Search is on for the Obamas, who are seeking a presidential place of worship in Washington nearly a year after a divisive break from their Chicago church and the incendiary sermons of its controversial pastor.

White House aides and close friends of the family have been quietly checking out D.C. churches on a shortlist - maybe a dozen in all - and attending services, speaking with pastors, reverends and rectors and reporting back to the Obamas, said one White House source familiar with the search.

They need a committee to pick a church? And the media would have me believe Comrade Zero is a committed Christian? I don't think so.

[edcoil]

Aides should not be picking a decision of the heart.

I would not want to be pastor of 0bama’s church. That pastor should be very worried about his job if he ever strayed from the “approved message.”

[Fast Moving Angel]

Really. I didn’t think this was a task that could be delegated.

[Diogenesis]

Aren’t all the mosques working out?

[Arthur McGowan]

They need to make sure the pastor is pro-abortion and anti-America.

If I were pastor of Obama’s church I would demand first to see his Birth and Baptism Certificates — the real ones.

There’s no “kill whitey” churches in DC?

I’m surprised.

remember when bill and hill used to pose for the msm cameras on sundays?

hill with her bible in hand! so that the brain-challenged could see that she was a christian.

[Mr. Mojo]

I recommend Pastor James David Manning’s church.

[Piquaboy]

He should pick a Mosque.

[Red_Devil 232]

When you are not a Christian then you may have to have someone else walk into the church first!

[Sacajaweau]

Pro-abortion, pro-gay, anti-military, pro-black, anti-jewish

P.S. 'REPARATIONS'

[The_Reader_David]

So what’s wrong with the National Cathedral? It’s run by Episcopalians of the sort who think the left’s agenda, abortion and all, is the modern-day implementation of the Gospel. 0bama would fit right in.

I guess the Obamanists missed out on Lent.

What a concept!
Delegate the picking of your church to underlings?
These people are unfreakingbelievable.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

They need to find a church with a teleprompter.

[a fool in paradise]

Anyone ever see Obama’s BAPTISISM certificate?

[silverleaf]

I’m sure they will find a black liberation theology church somewhere in DC ....

it’s the only type of sermon the “first family” seems capable of appreciating
