Which do you prefer, McBoob or McGore? My personal favorite right now is McDemocrat....But I am open to suggestions.

“Backstabber has been over used this morning.”

Gee, I wonder why?

“McCain is the nearest thing there will be to a conservative.”

May God have mercy on our nation.

“A vote for a third party or no vote is a vote for hillary/obama.”

Bull$^!t. A vote for hillary/obama is a vote for hillary/obama. By your “logic” somehow your candidate was OWED our voted by the mere virtue that he sucks ever so slightly less than the other socialists.

Take the endorsements where they come unless they are a communist or an ax murderer. This is gettin ridiculous.

Exactly right.

If a candidate has to agree with everything a supporter says and does, the only endorsement McCain will accept is his own.

Maybe he had a revelation from God: “Bob Barr” God whispered in Parsley’s ear, “Vote Barr”. “What, did you say something God, I was busy counting todays take, I mean donations.” “Yes Rod, you aptly named turncoat,” God said, “Vote Barr”. “Barbara Bush? Why her?” “Oh never mind Rod, you never listen to me anyway.” Parsley, looking around for the voice, brought his attention back to his loot, ah, I mean donations.

McCain may get my vote, but he'll never get my endorsement.

And it won't be because I am voting FOR John McCain. It's just that the alternatives are much more unaccepatable.

Pray for America. I do fear that judgment is coming.

I wasn't slamming the Catholic church. I was pointing out that the slams hit everybody, not just TV preachers. Did the pope apologize sufficiently to get his "fatwa" removed? All he had to do was state the obvious and he had death threats.

Every election the same thing happens. Some preacher says something or a candidate gets endorsed by someone they really don't want or need and the apologies start flowing like rivers.

I think Catholics need to stop saying poor pitiful me every time their denomination is mentioned. You are starting to sound like poverty pimps griping about the cops beating up some dope pusher. There are many people, even some Catholics, that believe the "end times" may include a liberal pope. What if the pope says anybody can get to heaven as long as they are "good" people? Is that open for question because it contradicts what Jesus says or is it off limits because the pope says it? Are we going to have homosexual marriage and abortion because a the world "finally" gets a modern pope?

If the pope thinks Muslims are wrong about something, why would he beat around the bush and kick the dirt when explaining what the Word of God says about the subject? Just say what the position is and let the chips fall where they may. When a controversy comes up, everyone seems to start backtracking right away. Hagee should have had the opportunity to explain his position before being crucified.

If you believe God doesn't have a "plan B", then it only makes sense that Hitler wasn't a surprise to God. If Daniel said the Jews would have to return to their homeland and take Jerusalem back to start the clock to Judgment Day, then Hitler may have well played his part to get sympathy for the Jews to have a homeland. If 6 million Jews had not been murdered, would the world have insisted the Palestinians be removed from their land? Probably not. Another reason might have been anti Semitism. Certain countries may have wanted their Jews to go to Israel and leave their own countries. God promised Israel to the Jews and I don't doubt He can get it done, even if it took Hitler to get it done. He used Pharaoh to free the Jews from bondage and start them on their way to Israel. How likely was that when they were slaves? Would anyone have believed an unarmed group of slaves could beat the best equipped military on Earth? Just take a closer look at the 6 day War and see how unlikely that outcome was. God is involved in every historical direction Israel takes. In the Last Battle, the whole world will be aligned against Israel, and God will intervene again. My hope is the US won't be one of them. If politicians and religious leaders are against Israel, we could be on the wrong side of God and history if people are too busy being politically correct than being Biblically correct.

Parsley speaks the truth about Islam.

McCain is a slickster who would find excuses for reaching out to the “gentle” side of Hitler or Stalin.

"Hagee NEVER solicits funds on TV"

What??????? Hagee spends at least half his airtime hawking his latest book, video, study bible, newsletter, contributions, etc. etc. That was what turned me off to his broadcast, he seemed all about the money.

One big infomercial. It's a trick a few of them have adopted. Ask a question, then say "Find the answer in my latest book!"

That feels about right.

It really is a pity that it seems to be required of Americans to possess a feeble memory, to forget, to ignore.

How much progress can come from erasing the past?

Now, does McCain look so dumb for refusing their endorsement?

He was for it, before he was against it.

In general, I agree with you. What’s really amusing is watching people try to make Hagee and Jeremiah Wright equivalent. That’s a hoot.

Good point...
..Many shut-ins appreciate spiritual messages & worship services via TV....

We use the TV for all other purposes, why shouldn't folks have the benefit of church, when they can't physically attend!!

My invalid aunt....bedridden for years....loved watching her church service via television.

Some of you here are too quick to judge.

So Islam IS a religion of love, peace and tolerance?

Broken clock, right twice a day, you get the idea.

Taking advantage of the gullible my not be a crime, but it’s wrong, IMO.

So McBackstabber dropped this Pastor because he had a private jet?

No, I assume because one of his aides realized that Parsley is the preacher equivalent of Bill Clinton.
