On Rick Warren

[elevengirl]

My first reaction the other day when I heard that Rick Warren had been asked to give the Invocation at President-elect Obama's inauguration was quite frankly relief that it wasn't going to be any member of the Billy Graham hierarchy, specifically that it wasn't Franklin Graham.

Frank Rich had a great piece on this in Sunday's NYT, you can probably find it online. His basic point being that Obama is being a little hubris-y/mandate-happy. Probably true. I don't like it, but in the grand scheme of things it's not so important.

Thanks! I'll look for it.
