169. excellent rant.. completely agree
While I feel that I've held some level of realistic perspective for an Obama administration, that is I never expected Obama to "pander" to progressives as some in the media have put it.. when I heard him at yesterday's press conference assert the notion that Rick Warren is an example of what he meant by reaching across, and that we should disagree without being "disagreeable", I found myself screaming words (at Obama on the tv screen) nearly identical to words I've screamed at Bush, which I won't repeat here, except to say, words not very flattering to his intellect, political judgment, or common sense.

I'll eat my words and lick the bottom of Obama's shoe if Rick Warren immediately holds a full court press not only to apologize directly to the LGBT community, but to RECANT every single evil word, thought and deed that he is ever uttered and carried out vis a vis political campaigns. But I won't be holding my breath.
