WASHINGTON (AP) - The Obamas got into the holiday spirit Sunday evening with a little help from Hugh Jackman, Sheryl Crow and Janelle Monae.

President Barack Obama and his family attended the 32nd annual "Christmas in Washington" concert, a benefit for the Children's National Health System. After an evening of Christmas carols at the National Building Museum, the president said Americans should remember Jesus Christ's lessons of charity and compassion.

"Through his example, he taught us that we should love the Lord, love our neighbors, as we love ourselves. It's a teaching that has endured for generations. And today, it lies at the heart of my faith and that of millions of Americans, and billions around the globe," Obama said.

"No matter who we are, or where we come from, or how we worship, it's a message of hope and devotion that can unite all of us this holiday season," he added.

LOL. Even funnier because I just happened to be watching an episode of the original Star Trek right now! Seriously. Not that particular episode, but another (That Which Survives).

A fool, a hypocrite, a liar, a blasphemer. A man who champions the mass for-profit killing of innocent early stage human beings for any reason or no reason dares to cite the compassion of the Savior. How long, O Lord, will you suffer such evil to endure.....?
