Like I've said, I have no personal affinity for John McCain. I'll defend him when I think the attacks against him are wrong, but when he's wrong I'll be just as vicious in my attacks upon him just as I am with Hillary Clinton and dipshits like Cal Thomas.
Well after roughly two weeks of anger from Roman Catholics concerning McCain failing to repudiate the endorsement from a fat bastard bed-wetting dick head pastor from San Antonio named John Hagee, who's a rabid anti-Semite if you look at the fact he believes all Jews will either convert to Christianity or punished for eternity in the lake of fire for not converting (I'm sorry, how is believing Jews deserve to be eternally punished not antisemitism?).
Republican presidential candidate John McCain on Friday repudiated any views of a prominent televangelist who endorsed him last month "if they are anti-Catholic or offensive to Catholics."
McCain has come under fire since televangelist John Hagee endorsed him on Feb. 27, but until Friday his response had been tepid. The Arizona senator merely said he doesn't agree with everyone who endorses him. He said Friday he had been hearing from Catholics who find Hagee's comments offensive.
Hagee, leader of a San Antonio mega-church, has referred to the Roman Catholic Church as "the great whore" and called it a "false cult system" and "the apostate church" — "apostate" means someone who has forsaken his religion.
On Friday, McCain took a stronger stance on Hagee's views in an interview with The Associated Press.
"We've had a dignified campaign, and I repudiate any comments that are made, including Pastor Hagee's, if they are anti-Catholic or offensive to Catholics," McCain said.
"I sent two of my children to Catholic school. I categorically reject and repudiate any statement that was made that was anti-Catholic, both in intent and nature. I categorically reject it, and I repudiate it," McCain said.
NOW YOU DAMN KIDS GET OFF MY LAWN!! Good work grandpa, good work of offering up a tepid repudiation of his comments. How about saying "John Hagee is completely and utterly wrong in his condemnations of the Roman Catholic Church, and I find his comments calling Roman Catholics 'apostates' disgusting." That might actually be something worth saying you lukewarm ass.
