Livethread - Obama, McCain, and Rick Warren

Posted on 08/16/2008 4:57:08 PM PDT by UFC Pride K1

Share your thoughts about the Saddleback Civil Forum, which starts at 8:00pm EST..

Will Warren throw softballs on the issue of abortion?

Will he give both candidates free passes?

Will this be an attempt to minimize the lives of the unborn while giving higher priority of less urgent social issues?

Rick Warren laughing and high fiving Obama. I can’t figure out who has a bigger ego on stage: Rick Warren or Obama.

Obama says marriage is between a man and a woman and wants to leave it up to the states.

State's rights is great. I'm a state's rights guy. But he knows darned well that the SCOTUS as it is will use the "equal protection" clause to force gay marriage on all states if one approves it.

Apparently I’m way behind.

I don’t agree with all of Warren’s ministry philosophy, but he’s asking decent questions tonight about a lot of things and making Obama be more specific where’s he’s only given vague platitudes in the past (that Obama is not being more specific doesn’t make the questions invalid).

So...what’s your beef with Warren? “False prophet”? How so?

That said, some of his questions have been good.

ALMOST.

If someone with a brain in their head were watching, they would see this as an issue.

Hopefully there will many with brains to see that simple fact.

I have read that Evangelicals are now leaning left, abandoning pro-life issues for environmental issues...who would have ever thought that would happen?

Obama wants to make the tax code simplier????? Obviously Obama hasn’t read any of his own proposals on his own website.

If your “family” makes less than 150k your middle class or poor, so in that context, why is the poverty level set so low dollar wise?

Agreed. Warren isn’t agressive. We will see how he treats McCain.

Obama’s answers will stand on their own. Vapid and clueless.

Rick Warren has never thrown a hard ball in his life. I wonder when Senator Grassley will add him to Creflow Dollar and others in looking into his finances?

Warren didn’t press him.

Rick's allowing him to talk, unfiltered and unguided. He's allowing him to hang himself every time he opens his mouth.
