Obama picks Rick Warren for inaugural invocation

[cacophony]

i think this mountain is a total molehilll. it's a prayer. delivered by a christian spiritual leader. 90% (probably more) of the christian leaders in this country do not support gay rights. if obama were to try to find a christian leader that was all shiny and happy about gay rights he'd have to go way out on the fringe to find anyone with the stature appropriate for the event. and i personally don't think the inauguration is the venue to be making fringe statements simply to give a nod to a group of people whose demands are not supported by the majority of the population.

and no, "demand" is not the same as "uppity." give me a break.

personally i just hate it when a group of people support a candidate and then wait for that "how's he going to pay us back" action. like if all the chicks banded together and voted for hillary, and then got all outraged if she didn't fill every damn cabinet position with a woman. WHAT ABOUT US??? WE SUPPORTED YOU!!!!!

i'm crabby today.
