I watched the full two hours of the Saddleback Civil Forum and honestly, I was impressed.  I saw some things that I liked in both candidates and I saw some things that I didn’t like.  I appreciate the courage of Rick Warren to host the forum.  He asked some really GREAT questi0ns.  I loved the format of the forum…one candidate at a time, same host, same environment, same questions, etc.

I enjoyed Rick’s closing lines that he made…”I just want to remind you that one of the greatest freedoms we have here in America is the freedom of speech, even the freedom to protest this meeting. That’s a good thing, but we have to learn how to have civility in our civilization. How to stop being rude, how to stop demonizing each other, how to have a discussion and a debate because we all want America  to be a greater place. God Bless!”

Do yourself a favor and take the time to watch it or you can get the transcript of the forum here.
