I was talking with my brother about this the other night, and how I'm really disappointed with the selection of "America's Pastor."
The man is a hate-monger. I can understand reaching out to those that disagree with you on a level of how to fix the economy, etc... but you do not reach out to people that actively encourage others to treat fellow Americans as lesser beings simply over the fact that they were born different. It's wrong, and it has no place in our politics. As Americans, these people have the right to believe what they want - no matter how ignorant and misguided and hateful. They do not, however, have the right to be given recognition by the government.
But that's Democrats for you. When they win, they seem to get guilty and bend over backwards to appease everyone they just defeated.
