W.W.JMCR.D.?

With all this flap about Obama's nutty reverend, let us remember Rev. John Hagee's endorsement of McCain-ical. This is a man who said New Orleans got what it deserved (Hurricane Katrina) because it is a city of sinners. Ummm....

Now before you recoil completely, read this hilarious NYT interview with Hagee from this past weekend. Learn the answers to questions like: "You’re not just sitting around waiting for the Rapture?" and "What makes it a megachurch instead of just a big church?"

Lastly, before you start reciting John Edwards' "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" from your 11th grade English class...remember that poor spider dangling over the pit of hell??...here's one final thought brought to you by Editor&Publisher: "McCain has attempted to distance himself from some of Hagee's views, much as Barack Obama is doing in relation to Rev. Jeremiah Wright. But unlike McCain, Obama has not stood on stage with Wright and accepted his accolades this year."
