I believe I will be voting for him, it will be the first time ever I have voted republican in my life. I am crossing the line because we are in deep trouble in this country and I believe McCain has the guts to stand up to anyone who continues to allow our country to fall apart at the seems like it is today.
Since this thread is about John McCain and the tone of the evening has been set by the attacks on Obama because of his pastor, I thought I might point out a couple of religious connections of McCains.
McCain's supporters include evangelist John Hagee, founder and senior pastor of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, who has said that "Hurricane Katrina was, in fact, the judgment of God against the city of New Orleans" for planning "a homosexual parade there on the Monday that the Katrina came," and Rod Parsley, senior pastor of World Harvest Church in Columbus, Ohio, who reportedly wrote that "America was founded, in part, with the intention of seeing this false religion [of Islam] destroyed."
Quote:
HAGEE: All hurricanes are acts of God, because God controls the heavens. I believe that New Orleans had a level of sin that was offensive to God, and they are -- were recipients of the judgment of God for that. The newspaper carried the story in our local area that was not carried nationally that there was to be a homosexual parade there on the Monday that the Katrina came. And the promise of that parade was that it was going to reach a level of sexuality never demonstrated before in any of the other Gay Pride parades. So I believe that the judgment of God is a very real thing. I know that there are people who demur from that, but I believe that the Bible teaches that when you violate the law of God, that God brings punishment sometimes before the day of judgment. And I believe that the Hurricane Katrina was, in fact, the judgment of God against the city of New Orleans.
....it's wonderful that he'd like us to continue our Iraq policy?
It is imperative that we do.
