I'm both, and I'm disgusted because Obama's choice reveals him as nothing but a second-tier politician who, as thanks to the queers and atheists who donated and worked their asses off to get him elected, chooses to make kissie-face with the most extremist elements of the religious right.<br /> <br /> This isn't change I can believe in.

People for the American Way President Kathryn Kolbert told CNN she is “deeply disappointed” with the choice of Warren, and said the powerful platform at the inauguration should instead have been given to someone who is “consistent mainstream American values.”

“[W]ho is consistent mainstream American values?” How ’bout “who has consistent mainstream…”? Sadly, it’s obvious that either the copywriter at CNN or Kolbert or Silverman, or all three show that they are products of the woeful American educational system… And how hysterical to claim that Warren isn’t “consistent [with] mainstream American values” when according to a CBS News poll, 54% of the population is pro-life. And Dobson’s “ideas are radical?” The only thing “radical” about them is the degree of difference in them and those of Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers.

But the real question is why Warren would choose to be associated with the true radical, Uh-Bama in the first place?
