Critics Attack Sarah Huckabee Sanders For Resurrection Story At White House Easter Egg Roll
Daily Caller ^ | 8:58 PM 04/02/2018

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders read the story of Jesus’ resurrection at the White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday morning, and a few critics were quick to attack her demeanor.

Comedian Marie Connor compared Sanders’ story time to a Bill Belichick press conference.

Mashable’s Marcus Gilmer called Sanders “apathetic.”

Other commentators raised questions about the separation of church and state, and a few even suggested she might be uncomfortable reading about Jesus while “serving his opposite in the White House.”

Sanders, who led with a joke about feeding the kids cookies and sending them home with their parents all sugared up, also said she would go fast because, “I know you guys are cold.” She was one of several members of the Trump administration to read aloud to the gathered children.

The comments on the White House’s YouTube video were far more positive, as many cheered Sanders for reading the true story of Easter. One even took a veiled jab at CNN reporter Jim Acosta, who had interrupted President Trump as he colored with children to ask about DACA. “Anyone notice the kids are much more well mannered than the MSM?”

I get the feeling she respects them so little that their criticism is, at most, comic relief for her.

There is no “separation of church and state” at the individual level regarding employees of “the state”. The first amendment protects the religious freedom of all citizens to speak their mind. Even Sarah’s.

Well, since the Resurrection is what Easter is about ....

Never mind.

I was trying to explain using logic. They would never understand.

Haters gotta hate Sarah...but don't worry, The Lord Loves you!

John 15:19
If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world.

“reading about Jesus while “serving his opposite in the White House.”

I wish she would respond:

“For years you protected Bill Clinton, ignoring the women whose lives were shattered by him. To this day, you ignore his trips with Jeffrey Epstein - the convicted sex offender who used underaged girls as sex slaves.

For years you protected Weinstein, even though so many now admit they knew what he was doing.

For years you protected Hillary, even though - from Whitewater, to FBI file gate, to her protection of her husband and her own political career at the expense of other women, to her incompetency as SOS with the blood of an American ambassador and his protectors on her hands, to her playing fast an loose with classified information with a personal server, to her attempts to discredit the now sitting President with her payments for a fake dossier, she has acted in a way that not only should have disqualified her from public office - but that should also have arguably placed her in prison.

How proud of yourselves you must be, now attacking me for telling the resurrection story on Easter.”
