The majority of the Obamakins have been trying their hardest to put Hagee and McCain together when they know he is NOT his pastor and never was.

But you know what, even though he is NOT his pastor, McCain has stepped up where Obama wouldnt and has said the following.

Now we now who the real man is and this should put a stop the the lies that have been posted here about Hagee being his pastor.

Great job John McCain! Thank you

I don't think McCain has been listening to this guy for 20 years, has he?

He doesn't consider him his mentor (even though Obama is trying to back away from that - luckily it is on tape and in his book).

The guy will NEVER be able to convince most reasonable adults that he sat there for twenty years and didn't hear any of this garbage. Or didn't know about his views. He has gotten away with not answering those questions so far, but his time is coming.

But McCain SOUGHT OUT Hagee in order to boost his cred with the rest of the religious right nut jobs.

Anyway Rs always want to give a pass to white evangelicals for things that they would lynch a black man for saying.

I agree 100%.

Obama still has not answered why he sat with this man for 20 years and did nothing when Oprah left in a heartbeat once she found out what kind of anti American hate filled guy and church she was attending.
So, Obama has lied to us about this, he know full well about this man, if not then he doesnt have the skills to judge people and is not capable of being President. Its one way or the other.

No more excuses, answer the questions Obama? And why is Obama still today a member of this church when they replaced Wright with a more hateful version of the same?

I don't think the treatment McCain has been getting for the Hagee endorsment was fair or warranted at all. In fact, all the candidates have "questionable" and down right OFFENSIVE supporters. You simply just can't control or censor everyone who endorses you..

..now back to some REAL political issues, please.

And what is wrong with reaching out for votes? And did you know McCain was a man and denounced Hagee for his latest comments? Something Obama didnt do?

He wasnt given a pass at all, you might think he was but he wasnt. And did you read anything about hating whites or America in his words? No you didnt.

If anything both Obama and Wright was given a free ride on this one, anyone who says GD America should be deported.

There is a difference, is it not black and white, it is purely facts that Wright hates whites and America and teaches people to hate.

So you are saying is was ok for Wright to say those things and for Obama to be a part of this for 20 years?

BS.

He's explained it enough and the vast majority of Americans are sophisiticated enough to understand. I dont blame neocon idealogues for continually harping on this, there arent many bad things to tie Barack Obama to.

OTOH, John McCain's baggage is much worse, spans a far longer time span, and is far more reflective of a huge lack of character and tremendous moral failings.

McCain has actively pursued the endorsements of evangelic neo nazis and rapture freaks. The type that in the past he condemned, it's something he must answer for.

What if they are American? Is it Gitmo for them then? Because if you start putting everyone in prison who has criticized the US, then you are going to have some very crowded prisons, full of most of America's most celebrated leaders, thinkers, artists, and innovators.
