Anne Hathaway and Her "Courageous" Anti-Warren Stance

Anne Hathaway spoke out against Rick Warren's selection for Inauguration Day. Of course, she's not the first Hollywood Elite-type to connect Rick Warren prayers with the end of the democratic world. She is even going to wear a bracelet to protest! That's taking it to the streets, sister!

She, along with all the others who are "offended," overlook these three points:

1. It is Obama's choice for him to come. Warren did not muscle his way into the ceremony; Barack invited him. Hathaway is against his inclusion because her older brother is gay. If you think one way about homosexuality, then anyone who think another way must be banished from participation in government affairs. Is that how it goes?

2. Rick Warren did not single-handedly pass Proposition 8. Lots and lots of Californians voted to pass that measure banning same-sex marriages. California joined many other states with similar bans. Was Rick Warren to blame for ALL of the states banning same-sex marriage, or just California's ban?

3. Barack Obama himself is against same-sex marriage. As is Rick Warren. And Hillary Clinton. And John Kerry. And, evidently, most of America.

Anne, if you really want to make a statement, boycott the Inauguration ceremony. I don't know how you got an invite, but make a stand not with your bracelet, but with your absence. Show Barack that you refuse to support his decision that way. It's the president-elect that you should be mad at, not Rick Warren, the man who simply believes differently than you do. I doubt that you or your brother thought of that as a viable option, did you?
