In a special video message, President Obama offered his warmest wishes to people across the country and around the world celebrating the Easter and Passover holidays.
Last night, the President and First Lady hosted a Seder here at the White House to mark the start of the Jewish holiday of Passover. Tomorrow, the First Family will celebrate Easter, reflecting on Christ's sacrifice and embracing the hope that this sacred season represents.
"Whether we’re Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, Hindu, or Buddhist; whether faith in God shapes our daily lives completely or not at all, we believe that with common effort, and shared sacrifice, a brighter future is just around the bend," the President said. "And we embrace our obligation to do something meaningful, something lasting, with the precious time we’ve been allotted on this Earth."
The President also encouraged all Americans to "pause and give thanks for the chance to live in a country where everyone has the right to worship and pray and love as they choose."

He’s going out on a limb there. Wonder if they went to church?
“President Obama Offers Easter and Passover Greetings”
To himself? He is the savior, doncha know.
In lieu of Passover greetings, how about you stop carrying water for Hamas?
Liars lie...that is what they do. This Clown is a chronic pathological liar. Have a pleasant Easter.
Phony baloney pseudo-Christian.
Hey! Moron!. You're confusing fornication with love. They ARE NOT the same.
Keep ‘em oh great feckless one.
can someone tell this imbecile that Easter Sunday is not a mooslum day..
This is Satire, Right?
His speech is just more Homogenized Grapefruit Peelings, with one serving size supposedly fitting all the people all of the time.
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN’S RESPONSE
Dear Mr. Obama:
Have you ever seen a Muslim hospital?
Have you heard a Muslim orchestra?
Have you seen a Muslim band march in a parade?
Have you witnessed a Muslim charity?
Have you seen Muslims shak[ing] hands with Muslim Girl Scouts?
Have you seen a Muslim Candy Striper?
Have your seen a Muslim do anything that contributes positively to the American way of life????
The answer is no, you have not. Just ask yourself WHY???
Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians.
Were those Muslims that celebrated the first Thanksgiving day? Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians.
Can you show me one Muslim signature on the United States Constitution? Declaration of Independence? Bill of Rights? Didn’t think so.
Did Muslims fight for this country’s freedom from England? No.
Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America? No, they did not. In fact, Muslims to this day are still the largest traffickers in human slavery. Your own half-brother, a devout Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black Muslims as “pug nosed slaves.” Says a lot of what the Muslim world really thinks of your family’s “rich Islamic heritage,” doesn’t it Mr. Obama?
Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country? Not present. There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights.
Where were Muslims during this country’s Woman’s Suffrage era? Again, not present. In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so, that often they are beaten for not wearing the ‘hajib’ or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women’s rights, aren’t they?
Where were Muslims during World War II? They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler, reviewed the troops and accepted support from the Nazis in killing Jews.
Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001? If they weren’t flying planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon or a field in Pennsylvania killing nearly 3,000 people on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East.
No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and other cable news networks that day. Strangely, the very “moderate” Muslims who’s asses you bent over backwards to kiss in Cairo, Egypt on June 4th were stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.
And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the “rich heritage” Muslims have here in America…
Oh, I’m sorry, I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslims.
And now we can add November 5, 2009 – the slaughter of American soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major, a doctor and a psychiatrist, who was supposed to be counseling soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan.
That, Mr. Obama is the “Muslim heritage” in America!
P.S. Now, you can add the Boston Marathon bombings, too…
Funny how only for islam does his message deal with that faith. For Christianity & Judiasm, he includes every other religion and even atheism to dilute the message.
Passover is a Jewish Holiday
Easter is a Christian Holiday
“... Muslim, Sikh, Hindu, or Buddhist...”
The rest of these have nothing to do with this weekend.
Except in “Amish Melon with Ears” head.
Yeh why mention muslim, hindu, buddhist, etc....all this equality crapola...enough already...its a christian and jewish holiday.
“...we believe that with common effort, and shared sacrifice, a brighter future is just around the bend,”
Yeah. I hear that Nuclear explosions are pretty bright.
Go suck an egg Barry.
Like you care.
The President also encouraged all Americans to “pause and give thanks for the chance to live in a country where everyone has the right to worship and pray and love as they choose.”
This is a lie. Liberals don’t let Christians live their lives according to their faith. They are the tyrants. They somehow can accept orthodox Jews not selling on Saturday or Muslim restaurants not offering pork sandwiches. But Christian bakers or pharmacists have no right to live according to their faith.
>>The President also encouraged all Americans to “pause and give thanks for the chance to live in a country where everyone has the right to worship and pray and love as they choose.”
I wish he would just shut up on Christian holidays. Only Obama could make Resurrection Sunday be about two men having anal sex.
