Pastor Problems

Have you heard of what Obama's former pastor, Rev. Wright said? How unpatriotic! I mean, "God damn America?" That is the most insane thing I've ever heard! If you've heard reporters, TV channels, or just regular people saying stuff like that, then they've probably never heard of Rev. John Hagee, who had endorsed John McCain months ago. Hagee had been saying things more controversial than Rev. Wright would ever dream of saying, for example, "And they the hunters should hunt them; that will be the Jews. 'From every mountain and from every hill and from out of the holes of the rocks. ' If that doesn't describe what Hitler did in the holocaust you can't see that." Hagee had been making comments like that in a sermon, calling Hitler a "hunter" sent by God to help the Jews reach Israel. He also said that "Those who came founded Israel; those who did not went through the hell of the holocaust." Hagee had also made comments about the Roman Catholic Church, calling it "The Great Whore." Unlike Obama, John McCain had accepted the endorsement and until months later, had denounced the endorsement. Some might argue that McCain hadn't known what Hagee had been saying, but the point is that Obama had dennounced Wright's endorsement right away, while McCain should have known about Hagee's comments, and then dropped the endorsement right away. After hearing of Hagee's comments, I wondered why the media wasn't making such a big deal about him than they were about Wright. Isn't Calling Hitler a hunter sent by God to hep the Jews reach Israel worse than saying "God Damn America?"
