HBO Ste to SHow Bishop Gene’s Obama Prayer
Word is that HBO is editing their broadcast so that all of their Encore Performances include the prayer of openly gay Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson of New Hampshire.
You can catch it on HBO tomorrow, (Tuesday, inauguration day) at 1 PM and 9:30 PM. As of tomorrow, it will also be on their webcast http://www.hbo.com which you can watch any time.
The marvelous thing is that Bishop Gene’s prayer will probably be better known now than the one Rick Warren will say tomorrow!
And if you watch all of the concert, you’ll see Pete Seeger, an icon of the American folk and progressive movement, leading a sing-a-long of Woody Guthrie’s This Land Is Your Land that includes the president elect of the United States.
Not to mention U2 singing In The Name of Love on the spot where Dr> Martin Luther King delivered his I HAve Dream speech so many years ago.
It is enough to leave me speechless. Almost.
