I really do understand Obama trying to be inclusive of all with the inauguration. He has lined up a variety of artists, etc, which I think is a good idea. However, Rick Warren....yeah, that would be the preacher that likened gay and lesbian relationships to polygamy, beastiality, incest, etc.--- had a big role in Prop 8. That's like inviting Charles Manson for dinner. I just hope there's a deal in the background of this that I don't know about -- maybe something along the lines of Rick lightening up on the gay community in exchange for speaking at the inauguration.

Rick Warren? The pastor who prayed
The one who spoke on Larry King Live yesterday about the same sex marriage? Which was probably why the post above brought up Rick Warren. The one who wrote the Purpose Driven Life? The pastor of Saddleback Church who has 22,000 members that attend his church on weekends and a total of 65,000 members on-line? The pastor who has 7,000 volunteers? The pastor who ministers individuals who have HIV/AIDS? I could go on and on. You never heard of him? Must not have seen Obama's inauguration.
Who the heck is Rick Warren and who cares what he thinks

Obama voter who approves of Warren sm
Obama and Warren are personal friends, have been for years despite some differences. Warren had Obama speak at his church years ago, the members did not approve, but Obama was invited and spoke there. Same situation here. They also share more commonalities than differences, such as funding for AIDS, ending poverty and other common goals regarding humanity.
Jon Stewart interviews Elizabeth Warren...
...overseer of the TARP Program. Though it's pretty funny, it's also very informative and explained in a way that most people can "get," and I highly recommend it to those who are interested.
It's a two-part video, and I believe it's worth watching, though, unfortunately, some people will probably criticize it without even bothering to watch it in its entirety).

Warren Buffett is paying less tax, personally and corporately, than anytime time in his life.
He was interviewed by Charlie Rose last night - excellent interview - but by the time the show was over, my stomach was in knots. I find this very stressful.
I do think that the tax cuts to the rich and corp. America should be reversed. John McCain agreed with this as well early in the summer but I guess his base swayed him to change his stand.
In Buffetts's office, the cleaning lady pays more taxes than he does, he stated.
Stupid question....I got Rick Santelli on a rant with this link.....
did I do something wrong? LOL.
Rick Santorum's claim of finding WMDs is just more false propaganda.
(I can't understand why they must keep lying.)
Lawmakers Cite Weapons Found in Iraq
Thursday, June 22, 2006; A10
Rep. Peter Hoekstra (R-Mich.), chairman of the House intelligence committee, and Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) told reporters yesterday that weapons of mass destruction had in fact been found in Iraq, despite acknowledgments by the White House and the insistence of the intelligence community that no such weapons had been discovered.
We have found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, chemical weapons, Santorum said.
The lawmakers pointed to an unclassified summary from a report by the National Ground Intelligence Center regarding 500 chemical munitions shells that had been buried near the Iranian border, and then long forgotten, by Iraqi troops during their eight-year war with Iran, which ended in 1988.
The U.S. military announced in 2004 in Iraq that several crates of the old shells had been uncovered and that they contained a blister agent that was no longer active. Neither the military nor the White House nor the CIA considered the shells to be evidence of what was alleged by the Bush administration to be a current Iraqi program to make chemical, biological and nuclear weapons.
Last night, intelligence officials reaffirmed that the shells were old and were not the suspected weapons of mass destruction sought in Iraq after the 2003 invasion.
