Great Post on the Rick Warren Controversy

Obama, sadly, has become an empty vessel into which progressives have poured all their hopes and dreams, thwarted not just over the last eight years, but probably over the last half century. Obama is, was and always has been a pragmatist, not an ideologue, and I've never seen in him anything that would suggest otherwise. He'll get there, but he'll get there by bringing the people to him, to the side of right, not by forcing his/our will upon them. Like it or not, Warren has brought a acknowledgment of global warming and world-wide AIDS among a huge swath of the Evangelical community. Warren is just another tool that Obama can use to bring this country together toward a common goal.
