CNN is currently airing a statement/sermonette by Hagee from his Ministry building
Edited on Fri May-23-08 02:47 PM by Bluebear
All about efforts to preach the Gospel, he is getting death threats, he has been fighting "most" of his adult life to ensure there is not another holocaust, blah blah blah. Sent to media outlets clear his name and "put an end" to the dialogue about him.

There was no mention of how New Orleans had a "level of sin offensive to God" and therefore were "recipients of God's judgment" because a gay parade was scheduled in New Orleans that Monday.

===

A. Why are they airing his propaganda?

B. Why does he think that he himself gets to decide when people stop talking about his offensive statements?

4. They are airing his propaganda because that's what

media whore GOP shills do.

They couldn't say enough terrible things about Obama's former pastor, but they'll fall all over themselves giving this cretin nutcase every benefit of the doubt and refusing to air his many egregious statements because he's supporting their guy.

Rachel Maddow said it on Olbermann yesterday. McCain is aboard the "free ride" express.

6. Indeed. Imagine the outcry next time some church gets flattened by a tornado...
...if somebody would shout "this is a result of God's judgment on the church for incidences of pastor-on-child molestation!!!!111"

7. First Wright. Now Hagee. And others. What is this...

a goddmaned theocracy?

I don't give a rats ass what these religious fanatics have to say. As far as I'm a comcerned, they are all immediately discredited and not credible based solely on their association with religion. As I recall, religion is supposed to be separate from matters of State.

I don't believe in their bullshit. I set the sails and work the rudder and I follow my own moral compass as I strive to be a good human being. I don't need some agenda-driven, coif-haired televangelist even addressing me against my will, and that includes spouting their rhetoric on a supposed "news" outlet.

9. The face of christofascism. Hagee and Hitler.
Keep him front and center of the media.

The political ads write themselves.

11. He's getting death threats
Karma is more like it. In the late nineties a woman sued his church school because a janitor allegedly abused her teenage daughter. Hagee ordered his church to pray a curse upon her and her entire family, because as he put it, everyone knows that you shouldn't go up against God's anoited one. It was in the SA papers back then, maybe I can find a link. Oh then wait, isn't that CNN's job. Yeah right. Silly me I forgot.
