Personally, I don't really care either way.

I don't understand why McCain can accept endorsement from someone this crazy while Obama still catches heat after denouncing his pastor's comments.

But it doesn't really matter anyway.

All three choices are from the bottom of the barrel, so I'm just going to write in Ron Paul myself.

These people hide behind religion like a mask. It helps them gain your trust, just so they can ultimately mislead and betray you.

Good find Chad.

The media was trying so hard to show that they don't have a liberal bias by overplaying the comments of Rev. Wright and blaming Obama for them. This is why we didn't hear much of Hagee's comments. This apocalyptic preacher is the head of the Cornerstone Church here in San Antonio. Nobody can stand the guy outside of his church. He is a horrible person that is full of hate. Hopefully McCain will soon begin to take some heat for accepting his endorsement.

And where are the Obama bashers now? In my opinion, this will not gain any traction because this is a white Christian. Not a black Christian that they can try to accuse of being a covert Muslim.

The hypocrisy of this campaign is staggering. Like many have said, all 3 candidates are turds, but it is just insane to watch the people get so worked up over non issues like this crap. This will be dismissed, just like it should be. Obama should be given the same treatment.

For the love of god....... CAN WE PLEASE JUST FOCUS ON ISSUES THAT WILL DIRECTLY AFFECT THE COUNTRY??!!?

Has God cursed America? I say yeah because it's been taken over by snakes.

Has God cursed Joe American citizen? I say yeah because we don't use the brain God gave us.

McCain and Hagee??

ok now I know for sure that McCain is a N.W.O scumbag.

Hagee is totally insane.

this Christian bs is and always has been the ROOT OF ALL EVIL.

no...its not money....thats a close second.

I get so mad when I see good people sucked into this religious crap.
or when my dad says things like "wow cnn or fox says that the terrorists
bla bla bla."

we may be the meek.
but the meek is about to turn a new corner.
and we may not be so meek after all.
just push us a little bit more and see what happens.

Vote:
RON PAUL .. the Champion of the constitution... for freedom..democracy.

All I want to state is there is a huge difference between being endorsed by someone and having a 20 year personal relationship with someone.

Think about it. Not the same in any way no matter how you spin it.

Just my $0.02, from an independant.

There are a couple of differences between the Obama Reverend and the McCain Reverend.

1. McCain has never to my knowledge been a member of Hagee's church.

2. McCain has never claimed that Hagee was his mentor in any way.

3. I've only heard Hagee preach a few times, but I feel safe in saying that Hagee has never used profanity in the pulpit.

4. While Hagee does preach the vengeance of God, he does not preach a message of hate that I'm aware of. He preaches a message of redemption.

Now, I'm not defending Hagee in any way, but I grew up in a fundamentalist Christian environment and I'm pretty well versed in the rhetoric and I can tell you that Hagee and Wright are not even in the same ballpark.

Let me also say that the issue with Obama and Wright is not the endorsement, but rather Obama's affiliation of over 20 years and Obama's initial claims that he was unaware of what Wright stood for. This raised questions about Obama's judgement and his honesty.

Well, if there ever was a doubt in Obama's mind about Wright's message, now that Wright has demonstrated that message for all to see in several venues, Obama has seen the light and rightfully so. Wright did all he could to derail Obama's campaign. That wasn't a very nice thing to do.

In the case of McCain, there simply is no affiliation to avow or disavow.

Wright has a right to endorse Obama and Hagee has a right to endorse McCain and to that extent there simply is nothing to criticize as far as that goes.

It's the nature of the relationships that makes all the difference here and they are in no way similar.

Obama's predicament is that he has been affiliated with a black separatist church for twenty-some years. Black separatism has its roots in American history and is fine as far as I'm concerned (I'm an academic and surrounded by extremists of all stripes), but it's not fine if you want to be president of the United States. The president needs to be the leader of all the people, not just African Americans or other smaller groups, and I believe Obama has chosen this path, albeit somewhat late for some people.

Pastor Hagee, while I don't agree with most of what he says, is not asking McCain to represent only about 13% of the population.
