Long before the sun rose over the Shiloh Baptist Church, people were passing through metaldetectors at the historic African American congregation where President Barack Obama and his family will celebrate Easter.

[Snip]

Rev. Wallace Charles Smith, in the church's program, said, "We are honored to welcome to our 10 a.m. Easter service President Barack Obama, First LadyMichelle Obama, and daughters Malia and Sasha. Shiloh prays for the first family every Sunday and we thank God for the wonderful inspiration they provide to our nation."

[Snip]

The 3,000-member D.C. congregation [was] started by freed slaves.

Well folks he is in one of his campaign modes for sure. It is national news that he even decided to attend a church on Easter.

A few months ago Obongo said he did not attend Sunday services because it would be too disruptive to any church he went to

I predict Obongo and family will opt for diversity and attend a lot of different black and liberal churches as the election draws closer

More accurately the headline would read: obama family to be on display at Shiloh Baptist Church for Easter

Good choice - looks like there’s a golf course 3.23 miles east of Shiloh.

Was the Pastor's Easter Sunday Sermon titled "G-D Damn America"?

You know, just so the Obama's would feel comfortable, and all.

One question I would ask President Obama which might turn him into a verbal pretzel would be: What caused you to reject Islam and become a Christian?

Going to church or not...

nobama hates you, hates your children, hates Free America, hates Americans, hates the Constitution and hates the Bill of Rights. nobama is a hate crime foisted upon America. nobama is the Destroyer.

Have a wonderful Easter.
