So Obama picked reductionist religious gadabout Rick Warren (a.k.a., Chunky McLardtits) to deliver the Christian speech at the Inauguration. Rick Warren, a man whose views on homosexuality are so ludicrous and reactionary make James Dobson look like Harvey Milk. (I believe it’s because he ate Dan White). Moreover, a man who has compared abortion to the Nazi Holocaust. And in a more recent brilliant deduction, said he thinks gay marriage is comparable to incest, polygamy and child abuse. Something tells me that this man has never been in the same room with a homosexual nonetheless actually known one. You don’t have to ask Tim Gun to know that none of those acts are fabulous.
Mr. Warren is yet another bloated bible-thumping theocrat getting a tax exemption while spouting his baseless, fundamentalist claptrap. What the Obomaniacs fail to realize is that this isn’t the first instance in which Obama has tolerated the intolerance. Oprah Winfrey’s vice-president elect allowed virulent homophobe Donnie McCurkin to perform at his rallies. I understood the political ramifications for making such an accommodation, as Barack Obama needed to siphon black votes away from Hillary. We must remember that at this time Hillary was coasting on the coattails of Bill’s vast support among blacks. But Obama has won the election quite vociferously so this speculation is no longer especially relevant, no? Is Barack Obama sticking to his campaign mantra and listening to others, however wrong they are on that given issue, to appear as a legitimate leader presiding over an entire population, as opposed to a specific segment or interest group? Whatever his intentions may be, the idea that Barack Obama would be catering to a politically motivated interest group is fallacious and an affront to democratic pluralism and individual freedom. Arguments for disenfranchising a taxpaying, hard working (no pun intended), a law-abiding fraction of the population should be motivated by the law and thus be compelling and incontrovertible. The religious purveyors of the truth, however, cling to the overly simplified, a child in the sandbox “Marriage is between a man and a woman” argument like it was a half naked altar boy or a bathroom glory hole, or a harvest of stem cells over Michael J. Fox. In brief, it is the duty of every gay American to put down the Tiara and Dildo and exercise their constitutional rights in opposition to this severely misguided man.
But Rick Warren is trying to do everything to prevent global warming from wreaking havoc on earth?
As opposed to Bush–who just recognized there was a climate and who appointed the janitor at Exxon Mobil to lead his scientific research–Obama understands the enormity of the climate issue, and therefore will acclimate himself with knowledgeable people. But Rick Warren isn’t exactly John Muir, or should I say Nobel Prize laureate and Obama Secretary of Energy appointee Steven Chu.
Even though every time this beer-gut gargantuan lifts a fat fold an ice cap melts faster than an M&M in Rush Limbaugh’s gullet, he has played a unique role in combating climate change. Despite opposition from some of their colleagues, Rick Warren decided to back a major initiative to fight global warming, saying “millions of people could die in this century because of climate change, most of them our poorest global neighbors.”
With the Kyoto Protocol set to expire in 2013, Obama understands that he must garner as much support in building a consensus toward the eventual promulgation of a newer and bolder international treaty. It’s just unfortunate that somebody is Jerry Fallwell in a Hawaiian shirt,. President-Elect Obama’s cardinal message of unity and comity on the stump and throughout the entire campaign enabled him to deflect smears from the opposition, showing that he was the real deal.
There is absolutely no question that Obama’s choice of Warren is controversial and extremely disheartening to the LGBT community that helped elect him. But the president-elect is not signaling that he’s giving up his personal support of same-sex relationships and civil unions. By choosing Warren, Obama is reaching out to try to heal a bitterly divided country and hopefully gain more support on some key issues like global warming.
But if Obama says “fiercely” one more time in respects to his support for gay rights, then I think he not only wants Rick Warren to speak but he wants to touch one of his asses. I, kid, I kid…
