1. In this post 9-11 world... This declaration is a red-herring and merits an automatic changing of the the channel. As long as we mire in self-pity and depravation of civil liberties after 9-11 we let Osama Bin Laden win.
2. Any combination of these three words: Rick Warren, gays, prayer: This issue is also total bull. If the democrats cave on this, they will show that they are simply panderers and slaves to self interest. The gay lobby is flexing its muscles hoping to bully Obama around. I hope Obama is strong enough not to cave here, or he is going to be bullied by every other special interest.
3. Exit Interviews and (insert member of Bush administration)...An exit interview is something done by supervisors on a job. The media (conservative and liberal) has set themselves up as supervisors of politicians, and thus, they believe, as rulers of the world. I will not play their game anymore. Media members do not offer "exit interviews". They do not run the White House. I hope they never do.

Three EXCELLENT points, although I differ a little bit on exit interviews.
#1: If Osama had been told that after 9/11, we would be waging a trillion dollar war in the Middle East, while making the whole world angry at us, he would have been tickled pink. Not only do we have an unsustainable war going, but an economy in the toilet along with our civil liberties.
Osama has done well.
#2: Agreed. It is interesting to see Warren catching a lot of hell for this as well from fundamentalists. The fundies and Obama's critics have a lot more in common than they realize.
#3: From my experience, the Human Resources conducts exit interviews, and seldom by supervisors. What if you are leaving because you are unhappy with the boss, which is often the case? The HR is supposed to provide a fair environment in which you can tell your side of the story.
