FLASHBACK Michelle Obama on why the First Family does not attend church
BizPacReview ^ | April 24, 2014 | Cheryl Carpenter Klimek

Posted on 02/22/2015 4:26:48 AM PST by tellw

Michelle Obama took time out from Monday’s Easter Egg Roll to talk about the first family’s holiday and why the Obamas don’t usually attend church. The first lady’s visit with “Live with Kelly and Michael” co-host Michael Strahan got off to an awkward start, when shejoined in the audience applause after she was introduced. “You don’t have to clap for yourself,” Strahan said, before asking about the first family’s Easter. The healthy eating proponent, who was pushing her “Let’s Move!” campaign at the egg roll, described what the family did after church on Easter. “We sat around really full because we ate too much,” Michelle said. “It was successful. We were full.” The Obamas try to go to church every Easter, the first lady said, but the family has other things to do most Sundays. “We really try to use Sunday as a family downtime where we can kind of breathe and catch up, and maybe take a little nap every now and then, if we’re not working,” she said. “We could be loungin’ and nappin’.” Her description of the typical White House Sunday didn’t exactly go with the Easter Egg Roll theme: “Hop into health, swing into shape.”

It is a question of what the definition of "is" is.

Their philosophy fits in with Hebrews 10:24-25 so well! Oh, wait...

If I recall correctly, when Obama first took office, they did not give Christmas or birthday presents to their girls.

Something that those who practice Islam follow.

,,,,, the 0bama’s are muzzies ,,, if you can’t tell by now where in God’s name have you been ? The call to prayer is the most beautiful sound he has ever heard . Have you ever heard either defend Christians or even attempt to defend attacks on them ??? Don’t even mention the fact they really don’t like the Jews ,,, can you tell ??? Why don’t we just get real about these people ??? He hates this country or he wouldn’t want to fundamentally change it and dismiss our constitution ???? He only wants to bad mouth the USA for our successes , greatness and generosity to the world . There I finally said it ,,,, I feel better now . Tell me I’m dead wrong !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You’re not wrong. I knew he was hostile toward Christians when he delivered his “bitter clingers” speech.

Bottom line is that he doesn’t love anyone. Even his army of worshipers incur his disdain. The only time he cares about anyone is when he needs votes or financial support. It’s sad that the free stuff crowd thinks he really cares about them.

And I don’t get the Jews in this country. Don’t they realize he hates them too?

You and I and Rudy are all generally correct. If I can see it, it must be really obvious.

I’m guessing there is a mosque in the White House somewhere.

A prayer rug at a minimum.

,,,,,,, I’ve asked many of my Yiddish friends why they support Obama or even different liberal dem. politicians and the rational is all over the board but none will ever make sense to me and 0bama has given reason to all the Jews in the world to question his fidelity to Christians and Jews .

My answer is they are hardcore uninformed democrats who act like lemmings in the voting booth voting their demise .
