Pelosi Slams Anti-Catholic McCain Endorser Hagee

Perhaps the MSM will stop covering for McCain on this issue now.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the most prominent Catholic serving in the U.S. government, called on Sen. John McCain to reject the endorsement of Texas televangelist John Hagee, who has labeled the Catholic church “the great whore,” a “false cult system,” and linked it to Hitler’s Nazi movement.

“That behavior is outside the circle of civilized debate in our democracy,” Pelosi said during a Thursday conference call. “I certainly think John McCain should reject his endorsement and I’m sure it won’t be long before he does.”

And remember: John Hagee wasn’t some random crackpot supporting McCain. Hagee’s blessing was sought out by McCain. He wanted to be blessed by Hagee.

    Exactly. This is not guilt by association. This is not the same as comparing every liberal to Chavez. McCain wanted to be associated with Hagee.
