As other FReepers have pointed out here... but Obama blows off the national day of prayer and still doesn’t attend a Christian church...
Oh, and there's this: 50,000 Muslims expected for Islamic prayer on Capitol Hill (Sept 25th, 2009)
What is happening to our country??
Thanks for the ping!
Someone just pointed out to me he went to the Prayer Breakfast but he blew everything else off — searched and found this:
President Obama is distancing himself from the National Day of Prayer by nixing a formal early morning service and not attending a large Catholic prayer breakfast the next morning.
All Mr. Obama will do for the National Day of Prayer, which is Thursday, is sign a proclamation honoring the day, which originated in 1952 when Congress set aside the first Thursday in May for the observance.
For the past eight years, President George W. Bush invited selected Christian and Jewish leaders to the White House East Room, where he typically would give a short speech and several leaders offered prayers.
Obama White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said Tuesday that the president is simply reverting back to pre-Bush administration practice
