Some of the liberals that I have listened to, think that being liberal means that you are nice. Conservatives are mean and selfish.
I don’t think that these “nice” liberals ever think of the consequences of their vote.
I’m with you 100% I didn’t even know the First Family went to church today, much less where. The whole this was one big photo op.
was photo op time. rating were slipping, but then they usually do go to church at Christmas, Easter and ...??? and ???? well at least twice a year...
why no photo? were not the girls dressed appropriate?

should have added this to my previous post...
SURPRISE.....SURPRISE it is Sunday and he isn’t on the Golf Course??? Michelle must have laid the law down to him...
about time he spent some time with family??? ya think?
How racist of them!
If he did,he would be Saint Obama.
Their fervor for the first black President is greater than their fervor for Christ. Thewy are the ones keeping the Presidents polls up. around 50 percent.
“it is Sunday and he isnt on the Golf Course??? “
Oh, wait just a pea-pickin’ minute. Let’s not kid ourselves.
From Alfred Street Baptist to Andrews is (as POTUS motorcades travel) about 15 minutes. hahahaha,
It would have been a hoot if he had attending Pastor Manning’s church in Harlem.
John Wesley Hardin?
That’s what it’s coming to these days. Word on the street is that if you’re a good person and do nice things for people, that’s all that matters.
This is how we are losing this country. America is slowly losing it’s faith in Christ.
Michael Jackson would have really made them go wild.
Likely approaching orbital speed...
That’s what i was thinking! What’s one got to do with the other????????
Taqiyya.
He had a I-Pod listening to Rev. Wright
...at least.
