Guess Who's Coming to Breakfast?

OC Pastor Rick Warren was the main speaker at today's Mayor's Breakfast in Downtown LA The 36th Annual Los Angeles Mayor's Breakfast was held this morning downtown at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel. The key speaker was none other than Orange County Pastor Rick Warren, who "spoke about influence, affluence and peace," according to the OC Register. Warren, who heads the Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, made national headlines when President Barack Obama selected him to deliver the invocation at his January 20th inauguration. After very publicly declaring his love for gay people while denouncing their right to marry and supporting California's Prop 8, Obama supporters feared his inclusion in the historic ceremony would scar the President's pre-Oval Office rep as a man of true change.
