1. they do violence

Now, yes they have forced their beliefs on others through the ballot box. The ballot box is still the way to fight those beliefs.
To be fair, this guy has done a lot of good works including work to help AIDS victims, if I remember correctly (and if I don't, someone will let me know--LOL).
Every choice Obama makes will not please 100% of his supporters. I do think the man is trying to bend over backwards to be inclusive. No, I myself would not have chose that man to give the invocation. OTOH, I would not have chosen a Catholic Priest, either, because of the sex abuse scandals. I would not choose an Episcopal Priest since I wouldn't know which side of the Gay Bishop argument they are on--are we running out potentials here?
I could find a problem with any of them. I'd prefer a New Age Preacher. They just accept EVERYBODY regardless which is kind of how Christ was.
It's Obama's Ceremony and he should have it the way he wants it.
