29. Apparently Obama is going to do another Rick Warren forum, along with Romney

So frankly, that ignorant bigot is as mainstream as it gets. Obama called him 'America's Minister' and half of DU defended his presence at the Inaugural weeks after Warren equated gay people to pedophiles and incest.
When Obama is shaking hands with Warren again in a few weeks, no one will question him and Warren will get called 'moderate' again, and we will be told it is 'poutrage' to oppose bigots.
