Mike Madden over at Salon has a great article called "How the hell did Rick Warren get inauguration tickets?," basically saying that the Obama team already knew about the fall out they would be looking at picking Warren and didn't really care for the most part.
I understand what Obama is trying to do here, I really do. He is all about the whole can't-we-all-just-get-along thing, and for the most part I think we can. But as my father pointed out this morning, would the inclusiveness also be extended to a priest who did not believe in interracial marriage? I can go as far as anyone in being tolerant to the intolerant, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna invite them to say a prayer at my party.
