A Quick Lession in The Fox News Way

"President Obama failed to release a statement or a proclamation recognizing the national observance of Easter Sunday, Christianity's most sacred holiday."

This sentence is not in any way untrue. President Obama did, in fact, 'fail' to release a proclamation in honor of Easter. And if this offends you you'll be glad to know that he 'failed' to do so for the same reason that my family failed to toast Elijah at Easter dinner; because it is not and has never been customary for the president to make such a proclamation. (George W. Bush, for example, is just one of some forty or so presidents who have allowed multiple Easters to pass without official commemoration.)

Then again, if such things do offend you it's probably because living in a constant waking state of offense makes you feel like a true American Hero, in which case I'm sorry to bother you with facts.
