All together now: The National Day of Prayer Task Force and the National Day of Prayer are not the same thing

Yesterday, California Rep. Janice Hahn got mad at a James Dobson speech and walked out. Depending what media report you consult, this was “the National Day of Prayer event” or “the National Day of Prayer observance” or “the National Day of Prayer gathering” or even “the annual non-partisan National Day of Prayer gathering.”

Such language isn’t exactly counterfactual, but it is misleading.
