Remember how Catholics are supposed to vote en masse for the Republican party because they only care about abortion & gay marriage? Well... McCain now has Bill Donohue (I mean the Catholic League) up in arms by seeking out and receiving the endorsement of one Pastor John Hagee, whose views on the Roman Catholic Church make Fernando Vallejo's look nuanced. Hagee is a freaking loon of titanic comedic proportions:[The wall chart behind him is a crazy artistic masterpiece.]
McCain may be shooting himself in the foot now, but he still has a lot of runway
to pull up his campaign before November, and can still count on the terrorist-in-chief to play the terrorism threat scale like a kindergarten xylophone. I wouldn't put anything past these folks: although it's crazy talk to say that 9/11 was planned by the government, they certainly took advantage of it. Just in case, I think we should all be mentally prepared for a very noisy October Surprise.

Did you see the article in the Washington Post that talked about the Catholic bishops and them telling the massive hoards how to vote? They said, and I paraphrase, "A vote for a candidate that supports abortion is not just wrong, but to do so, you put your spiritual soul in peril." BAH!
"I am not the Catholic candidate for President. I am the Democratic Party's candidate for President who also happens to be a Catholic. I do not speak for my Church on public matters — and the Church does not speak for me." – JFK
How times have changed... now it is Mormons who use this rhetoric, and Catholics are berated for not blindly following Church orthodoxy; ironically, lifelong Catholics often get lectured on Catholic doctrine by Protestants.
