Obama Disappoints - Asks Gay Basher to Deliver Inaugural Invocation
Look, I understand the concept under which Obama has invited California minister Rick Warren to deliver the invocation at Obama's inauguration - that is to have multiple view points represented by different people. I really do, but to throw support behind Rick Warren who recently compared same-sex marriage to pedophilia, incest and polygamy during a video interview posted on Beliefnet.com and widely circulated on YouTube* is just totally unacceptable and disappointing. Jeez, at least Obama said Warren's views on same sex marriage (Warren was a force that helped Proposition 8 to be passed in California**) and abortion were contrary to his own***, Still, I'm very disappointed that this particular person has been picked to get such a role in the inauguration. I'm very sorry to my best friend who is gay and to all my gay friends. This selection is just wrong. I've signed the online petition to Say No To Rick Warren.
