The Obama team has come out with its official talking points on the Warren invocation, and there's nothing there that's all too surprising. They want the celebrity power at their ceremony but they don't want to take responsibility for picking a known homophobe and extreme-right ideologue.

This battle isn't about the fact that someone who disagrees on politics is being brought into the fold. This is about someone who's a liar and a charlatan being brought into the big tent, someone, who, if he had his way, would kick the rest of us out. This is someone who doesn't agree with Obama on anything and who has specifically stated that his political opinions are non-negotiable. This is someone who worked on behalf of Bush's 2004 campaign to ensure four more years of pain for the United States for his political gain.
