Wright would have made the exact same comments as Pastor Hagee, the media (especially Fox News) would be crucifying Obama for his link to such a "controversial" figure. Point being, I don't think Pastor Hagee should be that big of a Political issue. Nor should Jeremiah Wright. Lets stick to the real issues affecting America please-like why gas will hit $5.00/gallon in some parts of the country before summer's end; or why we are still fighting a pointless war.

After all, McCain actively sought Hagee's endorsement. Why would he seek the endorsement of a person like this? At least some of Hagee's comments were well known at the time of endoresement. Also, this didn't even get a fraction of the media play that Obama's pastor did. Maybe there is something to the rumors that the media loves and protects McCain??

The greatest gift from my God is free will. Through my faith in him to make all things right I learn to forgive. Allah, the Muslim god does not give the gift of free will. Muslim forgiveness seems to contain some type of human punishment like torture or death. I will not worship no other god than the one who sent is son to die on a cross for allof our sins.

Rev. Parsley's comments are outrageous just has Hagee's, yet McCain has only really rejected Hagee's endorsement. There are others that have made a big thing out of Barack's middle name believing that he is Muslim when he has repeatedly stated he's not. I wish that people would learn a little bit about Islam before they go shooting off their mouths about things that they don't know anything about! Also, just because one doesn't go around wearing a US flag pin or posting the US flag on their homes does not make a person is unpatriotic! I am tired of all hearing all the hate and bigotry that is going on in America.

Just because i listen to someone does not mean i agree with them. Doesn't matter if it is the nutjob Wright or the whackjob Hagee. The world is not simply black and white, there is more to it than this ridiculous dichotomy that people seem to apply where you're either in 100% agreement or 100% disagreement with something. Good grief, grow up people. I still don't understand most of you people. Just because i listen to someone does not mean i agree with them.
