Obama's Quest for A Church

Obama should just worship at home, given all the flack he'll get for choosing one church over another. At the same time, he's being criticized for not actually physically going to a church, as if that matters, so it's a no-win situation.
Wash Times: With Easter four days away, the Great Church Search is on for the Obamas, who are seeking a presidential place of worship in Washington nearly a year after a divisive break from their Chicago church and the incendiary sermons of its controversial pastor.

White House aides and close friends of the family have been quietly checking out D.C. churches on a shortlist - maybe a dozen in all - and attending services, speaking with pastors, reverends and rectors and reporting back to the Obamas, said one White House source familiar with the search.
