Answer me this question: Regarding McCain
When the hell do the democrats plan to bring Rev. Hagee up? He is equal, if not worse and more controversial than Rev. Wright.. This guy comes right out and says racist and hurtful religious statements..

Do they plan to use this against McCain after Obama/Clinton have been picked? WHY IS THERE ABSOLUTELY no mention of this in the media????????

thank you.

1. When the hell do the democrats plan to bring Rev. Hagee up?

In the GE.

Unlike Hillary using up all the potentially damaging Obama stuff now, where it diffuses it as being worth anything in the GE for the GOP, the Democrats (well, Obama since he's been about the only one to criticize McCain at this point) arent using up the most potentially scandalous issues surrounding him and his campaign.

Its too early, let the GOP actually officially nominate him so they cant change their minds.

2. It's a good question
As are many other questionable things about mccain. Our candidate will eat him up in the GE.

3. Why should we bring Hagee up?
Why should religion be a serious topic of conversation in politics in America in the 21st century?

I want to know who the cultist in Texas voted for.

6. Just did some googling...
...and discovered that the congressional district in Texas where those cultists had their ranch was

President George W. Bush's strongest district in the entire nation in the 2004 election.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas's_11th_congressional_district">Wikipedia


Doesn't it figure?

4. Unfortunately
The Republicans already have their excuses in place for Hagee. I am in a number of debate groups on a mom's site and have read them all. "It's not the same because Obama considers Wright family and has attended his church for 20 years while McCain is just trying to get votes."
There are more, I'll have to look them up.

5. McCain got his endorsement to compete against Huckabee
he is not a member of his congregation and has not sat there for 20 yrs listening to his BS

That is why it doesn't get the same coverage
