The Westboro Baptist Church took its hate-filled rhetoric to Washington, D.C., on Monday morning, protesting outside the Sidwell Friends School attended by Sasha and Malia Obama, the daughters of Barack and Michelle Obama.

Members of the Topeka, Kan.-based church held signs that included the message "God is your enemy," according to The Raw Story blog.

The appearance by Westboro outside the Obama children's school may have crossed a new line and reached a new low, even for the church associated with antigay and anti-Semitic rhetoric.

"MSNBC anchor David Shuster described Monday's Westboro church protest as 'beyond the pale,'" reported The Raw Story.
