Obama Jabs 'Less-Than-Loving' Christians At Prayer Breakfast

President Barack Obama appeared to poke fun at his critics Tuesday during an Easter prayer breakfast speech at the White House.

“On Easter I do reflect on the fact that as a Christian I am supposed to love,” Obama said. “I have to say that sometimes when I listen to less-than-loving expressions by Christians I get concerned.”

The President didn't specify what those "less-than-loving expressions" were.

"But that's a topic for another day," he added to laughter and applause from the audience. "I was about to veer off. I'm pulling it back."
