Joy Behar: Obama Picking Rick Warren Like 'Cheney in Charge of Gun Control'
NEWSBUSTERS ^

Posted on 12/19/2008 7:03:29 AM PST by hamburglar

On Thursday’s The View, co-host Joy Behar expressed her displeasure at President-Elect Barack Obama’s choice of Rick Warren for the invocation at his inauguration: “I don’t think it’s appropriate. It’s like putting, you know, Cheney in charge of gun control. It’s wrong....it’s just wrong.”

The topic of Obama choosing Warren came up during the regular opening “Hot Topics” segment of the ABC daytime program. Whoopi Goldberg, who moderated the segment, introduced the controversy behind this choice: “...[A] lot of folks are opposed to this gentleman: gay -- because he opposes gay marriage, he’s anti-abortion -- he’s got a lot of different stances. There’s a lot of people saying he’s a bad choice.”

Elisabeth Hasselbeck was the first co-host to come to Warren’s defense: “I think he’s a great choice. He held the forum -- remember when he did the forum between McCain and Obama during the election? He sat them down and had the faith forum, which I found was great during our times right now. And I think that he’ll -- I think he’ll do a great job. He’s got an incredible following, he’s a strong speaker.”

Rick Warren is about as mainstream and uncontroversial as you can get. The fact the that the left is having a hissy fit over him says alot more about them than it does Rick Warren.

I think that The View being taken as serious political commentary is one of the biblical signs of armageddon.

What do they have against Rick Warren?

He was okay to host the cadidates — or is that the problem — he wasn’t pro-rat like the reliable media?

This shriveled up old hag is a Liberal bigot, pure and simple. She hates Christians, she hates anyone from Middle America who might hold conservative values. She hates any Republican. And she sits on that show and spouts her bigotry every day.

Pastor Warren is opposed to two of the sacraments of liberalism: abortion and gay marriage. That's why they hate him.

GGGRRRRR....you’d think this pastor was being appointed to the cabinet rather than having 5-10 minutes at a what will undoubtedly be a cold and miserable day in DC. Besides, the audience will have a prime opportunity to do things like boo him, through shoes at him, and turn their backs on him. They should look at it as an opportunity to be their usual ugly selves.

The biggest bulwark against Satan is the institution of the family. Guess what institution the two sacraments of liberalism are most destructive to...

“...’Cheney in Charge of Gun Control’”

Love the Cheney...he will be missed.

I’m pleased that Joyce is disillusioned with the Dalibama already. It makes me smile.

Of course Joy and the girls are very liberal.

The only clergy allowable by them for Obama’s inaugural would be the open homosexual Gene Robinson, who was the first openly homosexual Episcopal bishop in America. He would be ok, or some random clergy from the gay Metropolitan Community Church.

Yep it says a lot when you are attacked as a hateful bigot if you oppose homosexual marriage and you oppose “women’s health” if you oppose abortion.

In this case, Behar's physical ugliness is nothing in comparison to the true hideous evil of her hateful soul. What a monster.
