Obama botches Easter speech, leaves out Eastern Orthodox Christians



Whitehouse.gov:

I speak to you today during a time that is holy and filled with meaning for believers around the world. Earlier this week, Jewish people gathered with family and friends to recite the stories of their ancestors’ struggle and ultimate liberation. Tomorrow, Christians of all denominations will come together to rejoice and remember the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Wrong!

Orthodox Christian Easter Sunday is April 19.

The Eastern Orthodox Church is the second largest single Christian communion in the world with an estimated 225 million members worldwide.
