More true colors from McCain
As you know, the wingers have for some unfathomable reason decided that McCain is not actually a conservative. I'm pretty sure it's not because conservatives live in the bizarro world, because what they do there is at least based in some way on reality, whereas what the conservatives do isn't based on the opposite of reality, it's just entirely independent of it.
Still, they think McCain's a liberal and that's that.
He has been making some strong efforts to prove they're wrong, however, and these last two weeks we've seen a couple in the world of religion. First, last week we heard that McCain's buddy John Hagee, who is some variety of fundamentalist, hates Catholics and Jews. For instance, on Catholics Hagee has labeled the Catholic church "the great whore," a "false cult system," and linked it to Hitler's Nazi movement, suggesting that it was Hitler's Catholic education that made him an anti-Semite.
On Jews: “It was the disobedience and rebellion of the Jews, God’s chosen people, to their covenantal responsibility to serve only the one true God, Jehovah, that gave rise to the opposition and persecution that they experienced beginning in Canaan and continuing to this very day. … Yup, the Jews are to blame for anti-Semitism.
So we're off to a good start here, but how long can one mouth-breathing preacher keep you on the front pages? We need more, and new we have more!
It turns out that McCain has another spiritual adviser, and maybe his specialty is how bad the Muslims are. Rod Parsley, another popular TV preacher, says this: I do not believe our country can truly fulfill its divine purpose until we understand our historical conflict with Islam. I know that this statement sounds extreme, but I do not shrink from its implications. The fact is that America was founded, in part, with the intention of seeing this false religion destroyed, and I believe September 11, 2001, was a generational call to arms that we can no longer ignore. I bet you didn't know that the United States was founded to crush Islam, but now you do.
So come on, wingers, how about some love? His friends hate Catholics, they hate Jews, they hate Muslims. What more do you need to see that he's one of your own?
