Among the institutions upon which this great city prides itself, special
honor must be accorded the National Prayer Breakfast.  Held once a year --
evidently on the implicit understanding that once is quite sufficient --
this august occasion brings under one roof the most extraordinary collection
of duplicity, of human hypocrisy, that has ever been gathered together in
Washington, with the possible exception of when Richard Nixon prayed alone.
		- Jonathan Yardley, from the Washington Post, 2/10/97
