Well, lets be clear about this guys views. "He compared the "redefiniton of a marriage" to include gay marriage to legitimizing incest, child abuse, and polygamy. " I'd say it's a pretty extreme individual to have up there. Incest? Child abuse? LOL

LOL... Obama has REALLY bad taste in Reverands.

Maybe he should become a Muslim.

I cant let every little thing upset me or I'd be upset ALL day long.

If there is such thing as a Heaven or a Hell... these Rev's and the people who believe the same thing... Preach love and acceptance but practice hate and judge everyone... I doubt the man upstairs would be too happy with them!

whatever you think of rick warren, you have to give him props for reaching a hand out during the campaign.

and now obama reaches another hand back.

those of us that always saw obama as a centerist expect nothing less. he's trying to govern, not rule.

I didn't give money to , or vote for, a guy who would cuddle up with a bigot who compared the "redefiniton of a marriage" to include gay marriage to legitimizing incest, child abuse, and polygamy. " Did OBA not know he said this? It's like Kennedy having a segregationist involved at his inaugural. He leaned over too far. He could of just got a guy who was against gay marriage, and against Abortion. He was smart to let the gays down 1st though. They have nowhere else to go. This the cheapest way. He doesn't lose anything this way. For every gay that's upset, there is a moderate that's thrilled the kiddies are playing together in harmony. It's a kick in the face to most people who gave him money though. Ain't the 1st time people been ripped off. You can't have change if ya gunna pander to that fat bigot. OBA said "You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig." Well, hey that Warren guy is the best example out there. This wouldn't even have happened if we had real separation of church and state. This "invocation" shouldn't even be a part of the inaugural. One wrong allowed the other.

i think we'd all be better off if people just ignored everyone deluded enough to believe in ghosts, ufo's, 9/11 conspiracy theories, and god's.

i don't regularly advertise any of that where i work because i might need cooperation from people who have different views.

we just spent 8 years with a president who thought there was no point listening to opposing viewpoints. you really think the rest of us want another 8?

you may have voted for him because you thought he was an ideologue. i voted for him because i thought he wasn't.

i'll take him over "associates with terrorists" guy.

if you think this admin will be any more successful than the last by ignoring everyone with opposing views, you missed the most important lesson of the last 8 years.

rick warren is a symbolic gesture to evangelical's. i think this tells those willing to listen the door is open.

meanwhile, he appointed the lesbian deputy mayor of l.a. to a staff post.

i look at both moves and think, "there's hope". we don't have to all move into our respective corner's ready to come out swinging. maybe we can have a conversation in the middle.
