You're right, it's an outrage and Obama doesn't owe the "christian" "right" anything. And it's difficult to imagine Obama using the present justifications to defend a choice of, say, David Duke to participate in his inauguration. But this affront is relatively limited in scope and real effect, and we'd cut off our noses pointlessly if we prematurely give up hope based just on this. At this point, I think the damage would be far more real and lasting, far less symbolic and transient, if Obama were to rescind the invitation and pick somebody else.
As to a protest march...well, h'mm. If it were large enough it might raise and maintain visibility...what do you think of the idea circulating for inauguration attendees to turn their backs on Warren?
