It is pretty obvious to anyone how I feel about Rick Warren being chosen to deliver the blessing on inauguration day. Warren is a unabashed bigot draped in religious clothing who hates the entire LGBT community. And let's be clear, he doesn't just disagree with our "issues", he hates our very existence.
His participation in this day in history is being written off as a sign of Obama's inclusion of all viewpoints, the fulfillment of his campaign promise to give everyone a seat at the table.

I am not sure why, but for some odd reason I remembered Aristotle's quote when I read the heading of this thread!
"The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal."

a sign of Obama's inclusion of all viewpoints,
Odd, I know it was eons ago, but I seem to recall that he ran on just that kind of platform, now, here he is doing it, and everyone's up in arms.

well, at least people are angry about inclusion instead of exclusion for once. Who really cares? The inauguration thing is one of those Cesar things that Mr. Christ spoke of. Isn't it?
