But the AP and other mainstream media are making it news now. It has become an issue. I would not know about it if it wasn't a story.


I see nothing on the NY TImes about this at all. I did see an article that said that Obama has chosen the same method as GW Bush when it comes to worship - the chapel at Camp David. No president since Carter has regularly attended a church in Washington - the Secret Service protection rules make it a huge undertaking. I just see nothing in the mainstream media that is even mentioning this.

Making things up is kind of like saying you ran a sub 3 hour marathon when you actually ran it is 4 hours. No marathon runner that has only completed one race would ever forget his time. This was no "it happened 20 years ago" mistake. For some reason, Ryan thought it was better to portray himself as an ex-marathoner whose best time was better than 3 hours. Sad, really.
