Dec29 No Churchgoing Christmas for the First Family
 

I am trying to think of what this says about our country (assuming you also live in the USA) that a news outfit as large as Time finds it worth writing about that the Obamas didn’t go to church for Christmas in Hawaii. I bet the nitwits at Faux News are going crazy over this. Perhaps I’ll look for myself after another couple cups of coffee and post an update.

The Senate vote on final passage of health reform almost scuttled their plans, but it looks like the First Family will still make it to Hawaii for Christmas. They’ve had a whirlwind holiday season so far, starting with the lighting of the National Christmas Tree, through hosting more than 50,000 people for 27 parties and open houses, and ending with a visit by the First Lady, Malia and Sasha, and the family’s dog Bo, to deliver cookies to the Children’s National Medical Center. The Obamas have also started their own holiday traditions in their new home, adding a Christmas wishing tree to the decorations festooning the White House.

But there’s one common Christmas practice not on the First Family’s schedule: a visit to Christmas Eve church services.



For the rest
