Addenda

I was going to tack this on to the last post, but it would have involved time travel, as my point for today only happened today, not earlier in the week.
Obama picks Rick Warren, Christian darling for the invocation. Fine, piss off the gay-lesbian community by signifying a pro-Prop 8 guy for a solemn and significant inauguration position. Sure, don't worry that your supporters are overwhelmingly pro-choice and Warren is ardently anti-choice, pro-life, or any other term that means the same thing. Every day, what passes as post-partisanship is just flat out stupefying behavior. I cannot recall anyone who has gone out of his way to this extent to suck up to his opponents and downright enemies, while screwing over his supporters and friends.
I hear Rush Limbaugh may be hired as chief speechwriter. It would be a nice nod to the "new politics." In an outreach to his foes, it wouldn't be out of line for Obama himself to admit that he pals around with terrorists.
