Why is the media attempting to stir up another controversy?

What is the problem with Obama's choice of Rick Warren to give the invocation at the Presidential inauguration?

Update:

Do you suspect that no matter what this man does he will simply be a target for every right-wing conservative?

    They have to stir things up to create news or they would be out of business. Obama chose Warren and so that is all there is to it. I hope the Pastor prays just as he would in his own church or anywhere else. Apparently that is what Obama wants. Billy Graham was never criticized for mentioning Jesus Christ in his prayers at Presidential inaugurations.

    Source(s): Regarding your "additonal information"....now you're blaming the conservatives??? I thought you had a problem with the media? What's your point? They are opposites for the most part. Like I said before...Obama chose Warren...so what it's his day!! I didn't vote for him, but I support him in making it his day.

    No, the media is barely reporting it as that's a significant difficulty. you will could want in charge the government (lower back) in this one. in view that no terrorists have been discovered throughout all this new secure practices, i do no longer see that it particularly is that necessary. they could desire to bypass decrease back to what became working earlier they desperate to hunt everybody's crotch and breast implant (confident, they actually did). individuals will basically ought to take their possibility as they do each and every time they go a bridge that must be blown up. How approximately those persons landing at our airports from different international places? Have they been fondled earlier they have been allowed on the airplane? If no longer, then all that's for naught as in spite of desires to artwork on outgoing planes as nicely as those in-coming ones.

    Actually, the conservatives are not against Obama's choice of Rick. The gays are. You may want to read the news.

    Stop Blaming "The Media" for everything. They are just reporting the facts. I grow sick and tired of the scapegoating in America. There is always someone to blame. Rick Warren created the controversy with his own words. Reporters are merely repeating HIS words.
