The Obama administration announced on Tuesday it has reserved 3,000 free tickets to the annual White House Easter Egg Roll for students in D.C.-area public and charter schools, but not for children who attend private or parochial schools.(snip)
The 3,000 reserved tickets will be distributed to students at 11 public schools in D.C. and a few others in Virginia and Maryland. Children at private or parochial schools in the Washington metropolitan area may attend the April 5 event, but only if they are among the people who registered for an online lottery system, by which the remaining free tickets -- an estimated 27,000 -- will be distributed.

I guess the parents of the children attending private and Catholic schools don't pay taxes.
I wonder if muslim schools were excluded as well.

So... does Obama’s kids have to stay inside?
Good news. Those children will not be inculcated in the worship of government. One can have an existence independent of the government and its power. Do your own Easter thing.
I cannot wait until the greasy, wet turd and his family are out of the White House once and for all.
What a cancer in America.
How fortunate for the school children.
The WH staff couldn’t PAY me to attend their egg roll let alone an EASTER event.
Who cares.
If I was a Mom with kids at a Catholic School (I am assuming parents with kids at Catholic Schools are practicing Catholics).
I would not want my child attending an event sponsered by the culture of death.
“I wonder if muslim schools were excluded as well.”
We need to find out. This is just more proof that Obama is trying to divide this country along class, religion and race.
An Obama outrage an hour since January 20,2009.
What’s Easter about????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
And childrein in church schools can’t attend???????????????????????????
U Commie Nazi Muslim POS
Conservatives should boycott the WH event.
De-Selecting mostly Christian children from mostly Christian schools to an event that occurs in conjunction with a Christian holiday-
Priceless
More stuck on stupid by the great pretender
Sending kids to an Easter Egg roll while a Marxist is in the WH sends the wrong message anyway. Wait until we get back to normal in 2012. In the meantime, do one in the neighborhood.
And childrein in church schools cant attend???????????????????????????
U Commie Nazi Muslim POS
DESERVES a BIG BUMP!!

Were madrassas excluded also? That would not shock me one bit. Invite the mooselimbs to Easter Sunday at the expense of the Christians.
Wouldn’t want it to conflict too much with his muslim faith.

U Commie Usurping Fascist Muzzie camel f'wad sucking sack of crap!
Vicious political gesturing by the communist staffers at the Occupied White House.
100% of democrat party politicians in Washington on the Volga send their evil brats to private schools. I am sure that some tickets were reserved for these politician’s kids.
Does that include his own, privately schooled, children?
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list..
I wouldn’t want my kid hunting eggs anywhere near this muslim.
Ok so wait, so a CHRISTIAN holiday celebrating the Resurrection of Christ... and private CHRISTIAN schools are left out?
WTF?
I can’t fathom any Muslim child being allowed to attend the Easter Egg Roll affair nor, as the parent of a child in the Christian education system, would I, under the present leadership, want my child to participate. I don’t want to comment any further on why that would be.
As a kid, we dyed eggs together, as a family. I continued that with my own child (until he was 20, per his request). The eggs were hidden (some easy, some hard to find) and always lead to a beautiful basket on the dining room table. I still have memories of waking on Easter morning with a beautifully colored egg nestled in “grass” on the table beside my bed. It would lead me through the set number I needed to find and then to the dining room table.
My family doesn’t need to traipse around a park or the White House lawn to pick up plastic eggs, we just filled our own homes with the joy of Easter, the love of family and controlled the sugar high as we saw fit. ;-) Christians should boycott the WH event and let the little heathens pick up all the commercially hyped crap the government is handing out.
Christians in the West consider Easter (called Pasqau everywhere else) to be about the Resurrection of Christ. Obama, wants it to be about him. Children in Parochial schools know the truth.
Oh, I bet the whole school is invited.
Too many white kids would otherwise attend.
Why is he celebrating Easter? And if you are going to have an EASTER egg hunt and pass out free tickets, the FIRST kids to get those tickets are kids in Catholic and Christian schools. The public schools are not permitted to participate in any Christian holiday so therefore they should receive NO tickets. Isn’t their participation in an EASTER celebration akin to acknowledging the existence of Christ and the Resurrection?
"Sidwell Friends School is a Quaker private school."
I would be surprised if he continues referring to it as the “Easter” egg roll. Maybe something less offensive, or more muslim would be more to his liking.
lol he is an athiest....plain and simple...he wouldnt have anything to do with chirstians if it did not benefit him. he can barely keep up a pretense.
