A Silver Lining To The Warren Blunder

[MannyGoldstein]

Prior to this dust-up, I was only vaguely aware of Warren - I thought he was some sort of enlightened religious type, more accepting of reality and less hateful than most of his ilk. Now that I've taken a few moments to find out more about him, I realize that he is very, very dangerous: a man with hateful and damaging views, but wrapped up in pretty paper and a bow. I'm probably not the only person who's learned this, and now that we know better what we face, we can be more vigilant in combating it.

1. Ok I don't get it there are more Rick Warren's out there than folks care to imagine >

to be honest and until folks start bridging the distance can't see much changing. The day isn't about Rick many there that day will probably even share his views but it's America's day whatever wrong thinking any one there has. If Barack was making it about Rick's views specifically, no doubt I'd get it but rejecting him is just ideological and I don't wanna do what they did it's just one day of America standing together as they did on 911 no matter what they believed.

Barack Obama " This is not a LIBERAL America a conservative America this is the united states of America. " I can't really see it any other way, that's how hes' gonna fix things or they'll stay broken I dunno. It'd be great to think hey folks elected Obama now they think like us. No the economy went south Obama was strong on that folks gave him a shot, lots of lots of work to do.

For 8 years some Republicans said liberals are this and that and deserved no place at the table of ideas. That was wrong, for me it works in reverse not say his ideas will be automatically adopted but there is common ground with things like the environment and he he can move his flock to push senators to vote on the environmnet that's half a job done, but leaving folks in the cold no matter how much we dislike them just seems too much like how they did it, it didn't work for ending the divisiviness from all I see.

all throughout our government and society, and so few people realize it...
