Here is the nice things Senator McCain said about the scum bag Hagee
Yesterday, Senator John McCain said he was “very honored by Pastor John Hagee’s endorsement.” The Republican presidential hopeful also called Hagee “the staunchest leader of our Christian evangelical movement,” citing the minister’s pro-Israel stance.
As a prominent evangelical pastor based in San Antonio, you were recently catapulted into national controversy when you endorsed Senator John McCain for president. Is it true that McCain actively sought your endorsement? It’s true that McCain’s campaign sought my endorsement.
I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.

interesting interview
How did you feel when critics called you a Catholic-basher and said McCain should reject your endorsement?
My statements regarding the Catholic Church have been grossly mischaracterized. I never called the Catholic Church “the anti-Christ” or a “false cult system.” I was referring to those Christians who ignore the Gospels.
“In Hagee’s latest book, Jerusalem Countdown, he calls Hitler a Catholic who murdered Jews while the Catholic Church did nothing. ‘The sell-out of Catholicism to Hitler began not with the people but with the Vatican itself,’ he writes.
“For the record, Hitler persecuted the Catholic Church and was automatically excommunicated in 1931—two years before he assumed power—when he acted as best man at Joseph Goebbel’s Protestant wedding. Hitler even bragged about his separation from the Church. As for doing nothing about the Holocaust, Sir Martin Gilbert reminds us that Goebbels denounced Pope Pius XII for his 1942 Christmas message criticizing the Nazis (the New York Times lauded the pope for doing so in an editorial for two years in a row). Much to Hagee’s chagrin, Gilbert also says that Pius XII saved three quarters of the Jews in Rome, and that more Jews were saved proportionately in Catholic countries than Protestant countries. Indeed, Israeli diplomat Pinchas Lapide credited the Catholic Church with saving 860,000 Jews. No religion can match that.

i'm not going to defend this guy. or defend mccain for accepting an endorsement. but these two don't have as close of ties as you'd like to believe.
And Obama's ties with Ayers are practically non-existent. The fact that they were both serving on the board of a charity does not mean they are friends (as you falsely claimed) or even hold remotely similar political beliefs. That's spin if I've ever seen it.
Like Obama said, he knows him. That's it.
[EDIT] And you know, having to defend Obama over this BS is ridiculous while McCain's self admitted lack of economic knowledge and his ignorance over the sectarian violence in Iraq is disregarded. It's too bad another Republican isn't in the race still, because McCain's flops (which are SIGNIFICANT, unlike these Obama non-issues) are getting a free pass while the Dems are too busy attacking one another.
It's a town full of losers and I'm pulling out of here to win

he invited him over to his home. neither of us know the extent of their relationship but there was one. along with his spiritual mentor, those relationships both bother me enough to not consider voting for him.

mccain has a solid economic plan and even now is trying to put forth a bill that would eliminate the federal gas tax this summer. cool by me.
and what free pass? mccain was hammered by the media for his al queda mistake. and he will be hammered later im sure during the debates.
10 things you should know about John McCain (but probably don't):
1. John McCain voted against establishing a national holiday in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Now he says his position has "evolved," yet he's continued to oppose key civil rights laws.1
2. According to Bloomberg News, McCain is more hawkish than Bush on Iraq, Russia and China. Conservative columnist Pat Buchanan says McCain "will make Cheney look like Gandhi."2
3. His reputation is built on his opposition to torture, but McCain voted against a bill to ban waterboarding, and then applauded President Bush for vetoing that ban.3
4. McCain opposes a woman's right to choose. He said, "I do not support Roe versus Wade. It should be overturned."4
5. The Children's Defense Fund rated McCain as the worst senator in Congress for children. He voted against the children's health care bill last year, then defended Bush's veto of the bill.5
6. He's one of the richest people in a Senate filled with millionaires. The Associated Press reports he and his wife own at least eight homes! Yet McCain says the solution to the housing crisis is for people facing foreclosure to get a "second job" and skip their vacations.6
7. Many of McCain's fellow Republican senators say he's too reckless to be commander in chief. One Republican senator said: "The thought of his being president sends a cold chill down my spine. He's erratic. He's hotheaded. He loses his temper and he worries me."7
8. McCain talks a lot about taking on special interests, but his campaign manager and top advisers are actually lobbyists. The government watchdog group Public Citizen says McCain has 59 lobbyists raising money for his campaign, more than any of the other presidential candidates.8
9. McCain has sought closer ties to the extreme religious right in recent years. The pastor McCain calls his "spiritual guide," Rod Parsley, believes America's founding mission is to destroy Islam, which he calls a "false religion." McCain sought the political support of right-wing preacher John Hagee, who believes Hurricane Katrina was God's punishment for gay rights and called the Catholic Church "the Antichrist" and a "false cult."9
10. He positions himself as pro-environment, but he scored a 0—yes, zero—from the League of Conservation Voters last year.10

Thats a puff piece that is not a hammering. A hammering would have inlcuded the other times he made the same or simmilar mistakes. Such as the time he admited he did not know there was a differance between Sunnis and Shiites.

but you are more then willing to give obama a pass? mccain was seeking out an endorsement from hagee in order to gain votes. nothing more. so what? as for parsley, yea I don't like him either.
Thats a puff piece that is not a hammering. A hammering would have inlcuded the other times he made the same or simmilar mistakes. Such as the time he admited he did not know there was a differance between Sunnis and Shiites.
you asked for a link and I gave you one but its not enough. and why do yuo ONLY want fox news proof? mccain was headline news for days when he made this mistake.
you honestly think he would go to war with china and/or russia? WAR?
I believe a sane person wouldn't
But this isn't about what I think he would do, it's about what he would do.
So what would he do? Do you know where I can find his stance on China and Russia or a website where I can find out how exactly he wants to stand up against the injustices in the world?
edit: the more I read into him, the more I'm convinced that he's a bigger threat to America than 'terrorism'.
But this isn't about what I think he would do, it's about what he would do.
So what would he do? Do you know where I can find his stance on China and Russia or a website where I can find out how exactly he wants to stand up against the injustices in the world?
in regards to russia...
In a major foreign policy address, the Republican presidential candidate called for expelling Russia from the Group of Eight industrialized nations to punish Moscow for backsliding on democratic reforms.
"The global war on terrorism, wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, threats from rogue states like Iran and North Korea, and the rise of potential strategic competitors like China and Russia mean that America requires a larger and more capable military to protect our country's vital interests and deter challenges to our security. America confronts a range of serious security challenges: Protecting our homeland in an age of global terrorism and Islamist extremism; working with friends and partners overseas, from Africa to Southeast Asia, to help them combat terrorism and violent insurgencies in their own countries; defending against missile and nuclear attack; maintaining the credibility of our defense commitments to our allies; and waging difficult counterinsurgency campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq."
"John McCain understands national security and the threats facing our nation. He recognizes the dangers posed by the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, violent Islamist extremists and their terrorist tactics, and the ever present threat of regional conflict that can spill into broader wars that endanger allies and destabilize areas of the world vital to American security. He knows that to protect our homeland, our interests, and our values - and to keep the peace - America must have the best manned, best equipped, and best supported military in the world. "
First of all, I see McCain also understand the business of keeping people convinced they're in danger and evoking fear into them. Reading this you'd think the US is at war with half of the world and constantly under attack.
I find it interesting he includes China and Russia as a reason to expand the US military.
Anyway, War is Peace, right?
How much "peace" did the US War Machine bring since 9/11? How much peace will the never ending war on terror bring to the world?
The fear-mongering, which McCain is absolutely guilty of is destroying the growth of the US, it's destroying what the US is supposed to represent.
More war, means less freedom. McCain is a war-monger first class.
China can put this country under with out firing a shot. If China decided to sell of US treasuries in a quick fashion. It would send the world markets into a panic.
Or they could start buying the worlds gold supplies opps doing that.
Or they could lower the pegged value of the Yuan thus lower the value of the USD opps looks like they have done that too:
Comments
yes, its very bad. the man is responsible for killing Americans.
Really?
An anti semite and anti catholic Paster is ok by you?
