Rick Warren, Mike Huckabee, Mormons, Jeremiah Wright, John Hagee etc.
Does there really have to be any invocation at all at a ceremony celebrating a secular government?

There's hardly a preacher out there these days who is not capable of saying something that somebody is going to find offensive, so why not stop inviting all of them?  I mean, isn't it about time our leadership recognized and did the obvious?  Just stop implying that our democratically-elected-by-Constitutional-mandate government is still willing to tolerate association on any level with any entity that espouses distrust, fear, hatred and exclusion to any degree, in any form.

Uh, you aren't exactly a model of tolerance when it comes to this. You proselytize for your religious beliefs as much as any preacher I've ever heard. And I believe you have even, on occasion, been "capable of saying something that somebody is going to find offensive."

But I loves ya anyways.
