I've been trying without success so far, to log into Obama's change.gov site to post replies to people who are saying idiotic things about the outrage over Obama's choice of Rick Warren as the inauguration's co-intercessor for the nation.
One fellow said we should just "get over it."
I know some African Americans absolutely do not like the comparison of LGBTQ civil rights with African American civil rights. I think there is a real connection here.
So here's what I would have written back to the guy: Would you be telling African Americans to "get over it" if a white president elect selected an outspoken racist or KKK member to represent the highest ideals of his administration and, indeed, of our nation, at the inauguration? This is not enlightened "peacemaking" and tolerance it is assent to intolerance and an affront to human dignity in general and and to our Constitution. This is not change for ANYONE!
