While many Christians were celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ on Sunday, Barack Obama, his family, and everyone else attending St. John's Episcopal Church in Washington, D.C. received a message that included an attack on conservatives, the Weekly Standard reported.
"It drives me crazy when the captains of the religious right are always calling us back ... for blacks to be back in the back of the bus ... for women to be back in the kitchen ... for immigrants to be back on their side of the border," said Dr. Luis Leon.
According to a tweet sent by Reuters' Jeff Mason, the pastor also included a reference to gays in the closet.
The statement angered a number of conservatives.
"What a jerk," Jim Hoft wrote at the Gateway Pundit.
"I guess my expectations are too high to expect otherwise from this president, especially on Easter," said a post at The Right Scoop.

What if Bush had attended a white supremacist church?
To: Nachum
So will that church lose its tax-free status for talking politics, or will they get a pass, as in “it’s not politics if blacks play race politics”.

Someone just told me he’s originally from Cuba. Probably one of Fidel’s boys. They are infiltrating America from all over the world.

Why the mind of Black entitlement! Politics and racial hate speech is always in season in the radical church.

I’m not hearing a lot of love here. Great Easter message, btw your proof that conservatives want blacks in the rear of the bus?
