| McCain Stands By Nutty Pastor Who Calls Catholic Church "The Great Whore"... |
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/02/29/john-hagees-mccain-endor_n_89189.html February 29, 2008 John Hagee's McCain Endorsement Sparks Uproar ABC reports: http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/02/hagee-endorseme.html Calling Pastor John Hagee a "bigot," the conservative Catholic League is calling for Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., to denounce/renounce/reject his endorsement Wednesday. With a Youtube link to prove his point, Catholic League president Bill Donohue said Hagee "has waged an unrelenting war against the Catholic Church. For example, he likes calling it 'The Great Whore,' an 'apostate church,' the 'anti-Christ,' and a 'false cult system.' ..."Senator Obama has repudiated the endorsement of Louis Farrakhan, another bigot. McCain should follow suit and retract his embrace of Hagee." ... McCain spox Jill Hazelbaker says, "Hagee endorsed John McCain. While we welcome his support, it shouldn't be seen as a wholesale endorsement of all of Mr. Hagee's views." Donohue's full statement is here, http://www.catholicleague.org/release.php?id=1394and Salon.com's Glenn Greenwald has a fascinating interview with him here. http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2008/02/28/donohue/index.html The progressive group Catholics United has also written a letter to McCain asking him to "publicly distance himself" from Hagee's views. http://www.catholics-united.org/?q=node/136 TPM's Greg Sargent notes the lack of mainstream media coverage of Hagee compared to Farrakhan (whose support Obama has rejected): http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/02/john_hagee_post.php Very much like Farrakhan, Hagee has regularly made remarks about current events and other religions that many would find alarming. But unlike Farrakhan, he has never truly faced the scrutiny of the mainstream press, and major politicians like Joe Lieberman and John McCain have freely associated with him. In 2006, Hagee laid out his views on eschatology in a book called Jerusalem Countdown, in which he claimed that sources had told him a year earlier about world events to come -- and amazingly enough, all those predictions had come true over the past year. Next on the agenda, according to his March 2006 interview in Human Events: Israel would go to war with Iran before May 2006. And from there, Hagee eagerly anticipated an all-out world war against Iran and Russia, followed by the Second Coming. Watch McCain explain how proud he is of Hagee's endorsement: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/02/29/john-hagees-mccain-endor_n_89189.html UPDATE: McCain refused to reject Hagee's support during a press availability today _________________________________________________________ I'd call it a double standard, wouldn't you Jim Crook and MikHell Terribly-Ill? |

Although I did not post this, I think it really is worthy of a reply. [... much anti McCain stuff deleted ...] This is obviously like the robot phone calls that pretend to be in support of a person and are made in the middle of the night to get supporters angery at that person. In this case, we have the reverse. Someone acts like the lowest form of worm and then says bad things about a candidate just to try to get people to support him. It is a new and very clever trick from the republican party but luckily we can all see through it. Your trick won't work McCain is still toast. |
