Priorities, Schmiorities: The Wrong Outrage on Pastor Rick Warren, Syria's 
Best Bud

By Debbie Schlussel

By now you probably know how gays and assorted other left-wingers are 
outraged--outraged!--that Barack Hussein Obama's "gone rogue" on them and 
invited pro-life, anti-gay-marriage, New Age Pastor Rick Warren of the 
Saddleback Church.

And, of course, the liberal mainstream media is following suit.

But, as I noted back in the fall when John McCain and Obama debated at 
Warren's Church, the real outrage against Rick Warren is his enabling of 
the patron-saint-state of terrorism, Syria.

Warren gleefully visited Syria with his wife and paid homage to the Bashar 
Assads. And he had the gall to praise Syria as a "moderate" country. He 
had nothing negative to say in the least about this family that has 
wreaked havoc on Lebanon, worked in concert with Hezbollah and Iran, used 
his state as a shelter for every Islamic terrorist group imaginable, Nazi 
war criminal Alois Brunner, Jamil Al-Gashey (the only surviving Munich 
terrorist), etc.

The Company He Keeps:
Fetid Rick Warren Feted Syrian Terrorist Tyrant Bashar Assad, Praised Him 
as "Moderate"

Not a word from Rick Warren about the extreme repression of human rights, 
to the point that anti-Syrian journalist Salim Al-Lawzi disappeared in 
Lebanon and was never heard from again, after he visited from England. The 
lovely Assad family sent his hands in a box to his family members in the 
West. Then, he was found mutilated and tortured to death--all courtesy of 
the Assads.

Ignoring all this in the name of a nebulous, damaging "outreach" is 
emblematic of Obama's worldview, and is far more important than Warren's 
views on gay marriage and abortion (I happen to agree with his views on 
those, but he's done nothing to stop either, other than mere lip service).

But you know our priorities: Who cares if someone supports terrorists bent 
on Jews' and Christians' destruction and elimination? Who cares if they 
help the enemies of the West and cut off people's hands decapitate the 
heads of those who write things they don't like? Who cares about homicide 
bombings of 300 U.S. Marines and civilians?

But oppose gay marriage and abortion? Now, we're talking.

I have news for these lefties. Their children and grandchildren might not 
be around to enjoy the establishment gay marriage and the continuation of 
abortion, if they continue to focus on the wrong priorities.

The ultimate civil right is life. And when we honor clerics like Warren 
who continue to prop up those who wantonly take it away, we endorse their 
mass murders.

It's simply an outrage that Rick Warren will be anywhere near the 
inauguration of any American President . . . even Barack Hussein Obama.
