What was that???


Benediction at Obama 's inauguration, Rev. Joseph Lowery: 'Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around... when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right. That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. Say Amen'...

Why the quotes around the word "prayer?" It doesn't qualify as a prayer because you didn't agree with it?

Maybe because people didn't cross their arms in front of themselves and it wasn't demoninational-specific enough for Regis.
