The title of this post might seem like an exaggeration, but in fact it is literal. Pastor John Hagee endorsed John McCain earlier this year and John McCain says to this day that he is proud of this endorsement. Pastor Hagee believes Hitler was sent to drive the Jews out from under the rocks they were living in and drive them to Israel through mass extermination. Furthermore, God gave the Jews a chance to go to Israel on their own and when they didn't, he sent Hitler to hunt them down.
You don't believe it? Listen for yourself:
How can McCain still be proud of this guy's endorsement? And how did Jeremiah Wright get all that coverage when this guy is a thousand times more offensive?

46. The questions are : was Mr. Hagee ever Senator McCain's pastor? No proof of this, Cenk.
If Hagee supposedly was Senator McCain's pastor did McCain subject his family to listen to his spewing hatred for 20 years before renouncing him when he was running for President?
Where are you going with this, Cenk? All posters know that you endorse Senator Obama but you should be fair and report what is the truth....on both sides.

47. John Hagee is NOT McCain's pastor. Hagee just endorsed McCain, and has since recended his endorsement. The problem with liberals is this, you can't handle the truth. If you actually believed what is being preached from the Bible, and you DID realize it IS the absolute truth, then you'd have to rethink your whole belief system. I have listened to many of Hagee's sermons and have nothing bad to say about the man. People who live in sin do not want to hear what God has to say.
There is NO way you can compare Hagee or Parsley to Jeremiah Wright. They are completely opposite of one another. Wright is a white people hater, anti-American, muslim lover . Whereas Hagee, and Parsley are preaching God's word, the truth. The truth is the truth, doesn't matter how many times you deny it.
Be sure your sins shall find you out.
What is done in the dark will be brought into the light.

48. As the saying goes, God works in mysterious ways. It is feasible that God created Hitler not to exterminate the Jews, but to create world sympathy for them via the Holocaust. Without this event it's unlikely that the world would have ever given the Jews a homeland.
Just consider the person Hitler was. A commoner with no formal education destined to be a vagrant. To rise to be the leader of a powerful, industrialized nation and to nearly conquer the world would seem nothing short of miraculous.

49. cappy-you're struggling, to link two completely unrelated posters and subjects. Go back and read MINE if you want to understand MY point. And lose the creepy/obsessive behavior while you're at it...

50. And of course John McCain just repudiated Pastor Hagee and his remarks, making this entire discussion null and void....

51. "It is feasible that God created Hitler not to exterminate the Jews, but to create world sympathy for them via the Holocaust. Without this event it's unlikely that the world would have ever given the Jews a homeland."
Who knew there was a posthumous sequel to Mein Kampf ?

52. Haggee is not McCain's pastor. Haggee didn't say God sent Hitler. Isn't it amazing how flaming libs love to read or hear one thing and repeat it as something different. How typical!

53. McCain's pastor isn't Haggee, great.
McCain sought Haggee's endorsement, got the endorsement, and now rejects the endorsement.
Why would any rational person defend Haggee's statements of god + Hitler + Jews?

54. Well then, Dave....
Since McCain repudiated Hagee that's okay.
So why do you hypocrites still attempt to tar Obama with Reverend Wright?
Obama repudiated Wright. Wright repudiated Obama.
Why tar Obama with an unwanted association but not Mc Cain? Mc Cain was once proud to accept Hagee's endorsement. Just another McCain FLIP-FLOP!
It's that crazy, schizophrenic, extra HYPOCRISY chromomsome you wingers are afflicted with.
