20. I suspect Obama
might already regret having Warren do the invocation. I doubt Obama knew the true extent of Warren's record of anti-gay and anti-woman public statements. I doubt Warren spewed his venom in front of Obama when Obama came to Saddleback. I fault his staff for not doing better research. They really should have done a google search before asking Warren to open the inauguration.

Billy Graham was anti-choice and anti-gay marriage and he gave 3 invocations for whatever that is worth. These views are hardly uncommon in the religious world. Personally, I'd rather there not be any religious invocation but with 95% of the country being believers I doubt that will change any time soon.
