Poll question: If Warren is allowed to speak at Obama's inaugural will his prayer reflect his true beliefs?
If Warren is allowed to recite some prayer at the Obama inaugural state function, will he honestly reflect his hate or will he deceive viewers with fluff?

1. You left off something
"Money is my gawd! Glory! And I can make Jesus into just as much of a hateful asshole as I am! Of course, if public opinion changes, I'll make Jebus change to fit! He's my puppet! WTF do I care? I'm just another televangelist, saying what bigots want to hear and getting their money!"

3. He will attempt to seem innocuous and innocent of all charges
Edited on Sun Dec-21-08 06:14 AM by Jamastiene
on the surface...he will FAIL. There will be at least something that he says, even though he will try NOT to say those things he has said before, that will cause controversy thus assuring more publicity and moolah for him from his wide audience.

In other words, he'll try to gloss everything over and be all polite and shit, but he'll throw at least some code word, or code phrase, in there that will piss off just the GLBT community. Thereby insuring that we get told by the rest in the Democratic Party that we are "imagining" things, if we dare bring it up. Also at the same time, his code words and/or phrase will reach (translated: speak to) millions of right wing nut bags who will dig deeeeep into their pockets and insure he is a thorn in the side of the GLBT community for the next 4 years straight.

Anyone who disagrees with this prediction, go ahead and laugh now. Laugh all you can NOW, because later down the road, you will not be laughing. This Warren guy and others like him are going to be thorns in the side of more than just the GLBT community later down the road. And, as usual, those of us in the GLBT community will have to bite our tongues and not say, "We told you so" while we seethe and die a little more inside that you wouldn't listen when we tried to tell you so...ONCE AGAIN.

5. I think choice 2, but it has nothing to do with original question...
Your poll seems to have two separate and competing ideas going....

7. He'll reflect his hate with fluffy dogwhistles.
I'm sure he'll say something about the value of the traditional family, at the very least. All the while he'll be fuming at the gays.

12. Naa.
All you need to do is throw an "Other" option - makes every poll legitimate!

13. LOL! I usually do, I just wanted people to guess one or the other.
Will Warren be intellectually honest, or would he be a coward again?
