Most Obvious Pander, Evah
Slublog — ... Robinson suggesting his sexual orientation determines the content of his prayers rather than his Christian beliefs? Both men are Protestants. One would assume their prayers to God would be similar. For a guy who demands Christian doctrine and church tradition bend to accommodate his sexuality, Robinson seems awfully reluctant to tolerate views that differ from his own. How can our president-elect stand to embrace such intolerance? Yikes - I guess he wasn't kidding about praying in a different way than Warren.
