President Barack Obama told an “Easter Prayer Breakfast” held at the White House on Tuesday morning that the resurrection of Our Savior Jesus Christ puts everything in perspective.

“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,” Obama told a group of Christian clergymen and government officials in a brief speech in the East Room.

“And that’s why we have this breakfast,” Obama said. “Because in the middle of critical national debates, in the middle of our busy lives, we must always make sure that we are keeping things in perspective. Children help do that. A strong spouse helps do that. But nothing beats scripture and the reminder of the eternal.”

If he truly believed that, he’d be sitting in a church every Sunday morning.

“There SOMETHING about it”.

Very vague.

Kind of like Nancy Pelosi’s (paraphrased) line “When I find myself needing a guide, there’s The Word. And the Word is Good.” (or something like that).

It’s just Democrat BS to go after the Christian voters. They spelled out their playbook after 2004. They called it the “God Gap” and said that they would go after those voters.

When they outted the 2 gay Republicans in 2006, it was to turn off Christian voters to those Republicans and the party in general (which is why they erroneously claimed that the scandal went to the top of the GOP who knew and did nothing while a subsequent Congressional investigation showed that the media AND the DNC knew more, earlier, and CHOSE to sit on it as an October Surprise).

Where is Obama’s baptism certificate? He’s no Christian. Still hasn’t found a church in DC.
