The White House shared a photo of the Obama family on Easter Sunday as they posed in the Rose Garden in front of their Portuguese Water dogs. In the photo, Sasha and Malia wear sundresses and stand around their parents and pups, but a cute family photo wasn’t what some people saw. Critics thought the girls’ hemlines were way too short.

What about some Catholics who attend Mass wearing tight-fitting shorts, sleeveless blouses, and even less than that? What gives them the right to enter...
