To me, this was the same as inviting a segregationist white preacher, or someone who thinks being Mexican is a "sin". This issue is no longer up for debate. I'm all for "talking with" our adversaries, but inviting them to give the invocation at the inauguration is endorsement. These people have proven themselves to be not amenable to reason. So throwing carrots at them like this will not win them over; it will only embolden them. And give them legitimacy.
