Obama Excludes Private and Catholic School Children From Easter Egg Roll Ticket Giveaway

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.

Why exclude children in private and parochial schools, asked the father of a parochial school student at Tuesday’s press conference where U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan and District of Columbia Mayor Adrian Fenty announced the ticket giveaway.

“These tickets are from the White House to public schools, and we’re appreciative, but there may be other things unrelated to this press conference,” Fenty responded. “That’s a great question.”

Obama excludes...

Get used to exclusion. Exclusion is Inclusion.

Marginalization is sharpest knife in the propagandist's draw. It can't be too long before the term "non-person" re-enters the lexicon in this the most inclusive of eras.

For those who had any doubts about the intellectual and moral compass governing the administration, this item says it all.

Christian? Self-sufficient? WE HATE YOU.

As a Christian I am offended that they use the word Easter in this secular-political event.

Like the tanning tax, this creates an adverse impact on white people.

“I hope the Catholics that voted for this guy remember this stuff.”

#####

Because the vast majority of them are “catholic” and not truly Catholic, I doubt that it will matter to them.

For the devout, yet another body blow from this uniquely repellent Administration.

If he dont control it he dont want anything to do with it.

I doubt his children will attend an EASTER activity.

I don’t see how any Catholic could ever vote for a Democrat.

Public school students celebrate Easter? Really? Not if the ACLU gets a say.

White House Easter Egg Roll to Be Environmentally Friendly

This year’s White House Easter Egg roll will be eggs-actly what the bunny ordered. The environmentally concerned bunny, that is. A White House announcement Monday said the eggs at this year’s April 5 roll will be made from paperboard that contains no wood fibers from endangered forests, is recyclable and features vegetable-oil based inks and a water-based coating. What’s more, they’ll come in purple, pink, green and yellow and feature the stamped signatures of both President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama.

That's alright. He will see them all when as a Christian he recognizes Good Friday and goes to church on Easter Sunday.
Should be a great photo-op
