"Was this before or after he cursed America?"

"John Hagee, whose endorsement McCain accepted, said "New Orleans had a level of sin that was offensive to God." Apparently, Hagee's God doesn't "Damn America" like Jeremiah Wright's God does; Hagee's God just destroys the parts of America he doesn't like."

Let's not forget that Wright also served in the armed forces. In fact, his goddaughter just recently deployed to Iraq.

"My goddaughter's unit just arrived in Iraq this week while those who call me unpatriotic have used their positions of privilege to avoid military service while sending over 4,000 American boys and girls to die over a lie," Wright said."

McCain didn't attend Hagee's church for 20 years. Wright's god daughter? That makes her...not related to him. It's like saying that his neighbor got deployed.

It's official. You're clearly illiterate. Let me say it again: Jeremiah Wright HIMSELF is a Vietnam War veteran. Upon completing his service and returning home, he was denied equal rights and liberties -- the very American rights and liberties he thought he had been fighting for when he served in Vietnam.

While I can't condone everything Wright has said, I can understand his frustration and anger. When was the last time YOU gave your life fighting for freedoms that were denied to you upon YOUR return home?

Wright's Goddaughter?? LOL

McCain's eldest son was deployed in Iraq and another likely will go there - both of them Marine Corps officers.

Big difference between accepting an endorsement and "worshiping" at the feet of a racist like Wright.

You obviously have not listened to his speech. I don't say this lightly or often, but as I was listening to him yesterday, I was wondering whether there would be anybody stupid enough to condemn him for his speech. Obviously there are some, and without actually having heard what he said.
