The voice that will erase the sad bigotry of Rick Warren

I want to turn your attention to the man who will make Rick Warren look very, very small at the inauguration — the civil rights giant who will deliver the benediction, the Rev. Dr. Joseph Lowery. On February 7, 2006, the pro-equality Lowery bid farewell to Coretta Scott King, another…

Last Final Tomorrow

To keep up with the theme of the day: Rick Warren is not involved with the final in any way. What I don’t get about Obama’s insistence that we must overcome division by legitimizing those who divide us is that there are thousands upon thousands of religious figures who don’t…

Rick Warren discourages women from getting married

And not just lesbians, either. I mean, how else are you supposed to take this supposed clarification of the doctrine of wifely submission? Submission does not mean women are under the authority of men in general. I love the King James Version’s rendition of Ephesians 5:22 “Wives, submit yourselves unto…

Salon Radio: Glenn Greenwald and I discuss Obama and Rick Warren

I was still in my PJs at 6:30 AM when Glenn Greenwald called to talk about the Rick Warren mess. Thankfully, I wasn’t too bleary-eyed after only five hours of sleep. We went over that topic as well as Prop 8 and race in a 20-minute podcast. A snippet of…

Rick Warren engages in a form of Holocaust denial

To add to the pile-on about Rick Warren, I have to add that Warren is another one of those wild misogynists who engages in a common form of Holocaust denial. It’s not the traditional form we’re used to hearing about—people who claim the Holocaust didn’t happen or that it wasn’t…

Hilary Rosen unloads on Warren selection apologists on AC360

I don’t know if you watched Anderson Cooper last night, but he did some slamming coverage of the Rick Warren debacle on his program. He basically had to referee a heated debate between Hilary Rosen editor-at-large for HuffPost and a CNN contributor, CNN’s Roland Martin and Robert Zimmerman, a Democratic…

He has released the official Obama talking points on Rick Warren’s selection, so here they are without comment (h/t Karen Ocamb): * This will be…

Homobigot Rick Warren to deliver invocation at inauguration

(UPDATE: Have complaints to share? Email Parag Mehta is Obama’s LGBT liaison on the transition team – parag.mehta@ptt.gov) I can understand the selection of Rev. Dr. Joseph E. Lowery, a revered veteran of the civil rights movement co-founder with the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. of the Southern Christian…

Liveblogging: The Faith Forum/Debate/Joint Appearance Thing

The wrapup: McCain looked sharper than Obama. And by “sharper”, I mean totally unfocused on the words coming out of Rick Warren’s mouth except as they related to prepackaged stories he already knew. The best political team on TV is analyzing this on CNN. This should be a trainwreck. The…
