Columbus — Georgia Republican Party chairwoman Sue Everhart said Saturday that the party's presumed presidential nominee has a lot in common with Jesus Christ.

"John McCain is kind of like Jesus Christ on the cross," Everhart said as she began the second day of the state GOP convention. "He never denounced God, either."

Everhart was praising McCain for never denouncing the United States while he was being tortured as a prisoner of war in Vietnam.

"I'm not trying to compare John McCain to Jesus Christ, I'm looking at the pain that was there," she said.

2. oh my

how do you respond to something like that

[Donnachaidh]

7. you don't. And that's EXACTLY *why* it was said.

It's a ploy used regularly by these wannabe firebrands who want to avoid actual discussions of the shortcomings of the candidates.

Expect lots of this happy horseshit to be flying from the mouths of Georgia GOPers in the weeks to come.

5. Them GOP peeps are playing the God Card? OMG...What the hell did he ever do to deserve that card?

And how does what he did/didn't do in Nam make him the best in the Land to Lead this Nation?

These guys are searching for straws...any straw....

8. We grow 'em extra stupid down here. You can't be surprised at *anything* you hear from GA

Before this is all over you'll probably be told that John McCain led 300 fellow POWs to freedom from the "Hanoi Hilton" prison and singlehandedly defeated the entire People's Army of North Vietnam while rescuing MIA special forces personnel from camps in Laos--using only his beard.

16. Sheeple believe anything their cult masters tell um...They even line up to drink the kool aide.

6. Is that true that John McCain never denounced the US?

I don't mean to impugn his character. I think I've read otherwise. Does anyone know?

John McCain himself said he was ashamed for having cracked under torture.

9. Not the same at all. McC is only dead from the neck up.

10. Dammit !!!

Look people, would you start warning me about these things so I know not to take a swig of tea before cracking open the post?

The pukes in Georgia aren't just sad, but they are also hysterically funny.

11. And while a prisoner John McCain looked up to the sky and said

"General Electric, why have you forsaken me?"

[newmajority]

12. Sue, if you really think McLoon is Jesus, go ahead and crucify him

If you're right, he'll come back in three days. If you're wrong, then you're better off for eliminating a "false Christ", right? O8)

13. Dont forget too that they were both born more than 2000 years ago. McCain is so old...

...he still owes Moses a quarter
...he has an autographed version of the bible
...many remember where they were when Kennedy was shot, he remembers where he was when Jesus was crucified

15. All I can think of is The Life of Brian.

and so remember "Always look on the Bright of Life"
