From what I have read, People For The American Way are upset about this pick. They are one of the best known advocacy groups in Washington.

Rick Warren's church has had protests in front of it due to Prop 8 in the past month or so.
The congressional committee putting together the inauguration earlier this afternoon announced that the program for President-elect Barack Obama's inaugural would include an invocation by Rick Warren, the celebrity preacher at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif.
