The tragic lies and deceit of Pastor Rick Warren - pt. 3

Warren’s language is very specific in what he tells the world, starting with his use of the word “we.” “We have safely placed Senator McCain in a cone of silence.” He leads the world to believe he has personally seen that Senator McCain was put in this “cone of silence” – yet he never did any such thing. Nor did anyone on his staff do it and report to Warren that McCain was safely in the ‘cone of silence’ … for the simple reason McCain was not even there.

Why did Warren tell such a blatant lie? There is no possible way that anyone on his staff could have informed Warren that McCain was safely in the cone of silence when he wasn’t even there. He hadn’t even arrived on the premises. The only possible thing his staff could have told Warren is that they were getting panicky because McCain hadn’t yet arrived, and they had to go on the air in minutes. Warren himself had to panic about the no-show of his major player – unless he was aware of it and prepared for it.

Yet with everyone panicking that McCain had not yet arrived, and they were going on the air, with everyone desperately trying to locate McCain and get him there, Warren goes out and does an ugly, sinister thing. Warren tells the world audience, gives assurance to the world audience, that “we have safely placed Senator McCain in a cone of silence …” where Senator McCain could not possibly hear the questions Obama would be asked.

Warren said this even though he knew with absolute certainty McCain was not in a cone of silence, Warren knew that at the time he said that to the TV audience, McCain was in a motorcade, in a car where McCain could hear everything – on the car’s TV screen, on the radio, or have aides tell McCain of the questions being asked on his cell phone, blackberry, or any other message center. Not only could McCain hear the questions, his aides had plenty of time to prepare his answers.

Why did Pastor Warren so knowingly and consciously lie and deceive us – and that’s not the only lie and deception Pastor Warren did and continues to do on the talk shows.

Rick Warren rubs salt in the wound and lies and deceives us further

1. Why either candidate agreed to talk to him is a mystery
I never heard of him before last week and could spot him as a shyster with one glance.

3. There was no cone of silence
It was nothing but Ego Theater for "Pastor" Rick Warren, the man who was told by God, personally, to get out there and make as much money as he could by stating the obvious.

That either candidate accepted this bullshit forum and agreed to appear - well, wait - McCain is a craven whore who'll appear anywhere, so let me just talk about Obama - still rankles me. Our country was founded so that we could have freedom OF religion as well as freedom FROM religion. Thomas Jefferson must have been doing somersaults in his grave that night.

I saw screw the religious groups who so imperiously demand that they have a place at the political table. They don't. They may, if they agree to give up their tax-exempt status, but, other than that, they're nothing but companies populated by people who vote. Like us. Only without the delusions about That Big Man In The Sky Who Sees Everything You Do And Will Settle With You After You Die.
