It's really no surprise that some of President-elect Barack Obama's far-left supporters are incensed at Obama's decision to have conservative Christian minister Rick Warren, pastor of the 22,000-member Saddleback Community Church in Orange County, Calif., deliver the invocation at his Jan. 20 inauguration.

What is a bit surprising, though, is that the far left of Obama's constituency has no idea what's really going on with their man's choice to give Warren a role in the inaugural pomp and circumstance.

As such, those Obama supporters are coming off as nothing more than petulant children.

We need to remember, Obama is a politician. Not all of his promises are going to come true if any. We need to remember that he did use Warren for part of his inaugaration party along with others. Let it go but remember. Look what good old Joe did to us last year. He was suppose to be on our side. That was and is a joke. Joe had done more to hurt us over the years than this preacher from Orange County California. To keep putting this mans name into the press is not doing us any favors at all. Negative press is just as good if not better than positive press.
