Where Will the Obamas Worship?
Cross Action News ^ | 1-17-09 | Mark Tooley

Where will President Barack Obama attend church in Washington? Thanks to revelations about the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, his former pastor at Trinity United Church of Christ (UCC) in Chicago, Mr. Obama’s church shopping requires more careful political contemplation than a new president typically needs. But his ultimate choice likely will be a noncontroversial church, suitable for young children, with a brief commute and tightly scheduled worship that gets the president back home early on Sunday mornings.

They won’t. It is not a priority. They will show up like Bill Clinton, if it is politically necessary.

It will be all for show. They will travel around to a variety of churches in DC throughout the years....just for political gain.

I don’t think worshiping God in church is a priority for them

I do not think Michelle especially has come to terms with going to church for the purpose of worship, instead of going to church to bask in the radical political and racist rants of a phleger or wright and to stoke her racist anger against whitey

they have not been to a church since the election, except in Hawaii to chant granny off to nirvana to the songs of Bette Midler in a unitarian chapel

It will of course be amusing to watch the local DC churches try to court them into attending

They can duck the issue by spending most of their weekends hidden away at Camp David or by flying back often to spend isolated time in Chicago

They have people establishing a precise heading from the White House to Mecca as we speak.

If I went to any D.C. church, I’d hope that NO president would come there. Can you imagine the horrible security measures? The few times I’ve been to an event involving a president, former president, or former first lady (Carter, Ford, Barbara Bush, Bush 1), you had to arrive two hours early.

Reagan almost never went to church and rarely brought in a minister. He didn’t see the need to make a public show of his faith.

It wasn’t for Reagan either.

Michelle and the girls, I don’t know. Barry will just pull up a mirror.

Just my opinion but anyone who attends a racist church for 20 years does not know the Lord.

What’s the fuss?

Isn’t Dad the “messiah”?

Just draw a pentagram in a room and let the kids have their service at home worshipping Dad.

The Obama's don't worship, they ARE worshipped. Or haven't you turned on a TV lately?

Yikes, Reagan and Hussein in the same sentence?

Of course RR didn’t spend 20 years funding and attending, a racist, anti-American “church” either.
