I absolutely lerve Aretha, but I'm no fan of Rev.Rick:

Aretha Franklin and Dr. Rick Warren, an author and leader of the Saddleback Church, are among the select group of people who will participate in Barack Obama’s inaugural swearing-in ceremony on Jan. 20.

Mr. Obama has also chosen Elizabeth Alexander, an African-American poet, and some of the world’s premier musicians, including Itzhak Perlman and Yo-Yo Ma, to share the podium with him.

In honoring the civil rights movement, Mr. Obama has asked the Rev. Dr. Joseph E. Lowery, dean of the civil rights movement and co-founder with the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, to deliver the benediction. [...]

Justice John Paul Stevens will then administer the oath of office to Vice President-elect Joseph R. Biden, Jr., to be followed by a musical selection by John Williams, the composer and arranger whose music was heard at Mr. Obama’s victory party on election night in Grant Park. [...]

The oath of office will then be administered to President-elect Barack H. Obama by Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr.

For the first time in 8 years, we can have a little R-E-S-P-E-C-T for our president, and say the words "commander in chief" without laughing... or cringing.
