Crazy Preachers Endorsing Presidential Candidates

No, no, I'm not talking about Pastor Wright and Obama; I'm talking about Pastor Rod Parsley and McCain. Rod Parsley is one of those crazy TV preachers who's always begging for money and has one of those "mega-churches" in Ohio. Here is the profile of McCain's "spiritual advisor":

1.Called Planned Parenthood Nazi's
2.Openly called for prosecution of people who commit adultery which would obviously include Ted Haggard, Newt Gingrich, Tom Delay, David Vitter and of course Bill Clinton.
3.On Islam and being a loving Christian: "The fact is that America was founded, in part, with the intention of seeing this false religion destroyed". So much for Christianity being a peaceful religion.
4.Thinks people should be able to pray in public schools because something is apparently wrong with praying at home and in a church or sending your kids to a Catholic school.
5.On the founding of America he said: "It was to defeat Islam, among other dreams, that Christopher Columbus sailed to the New World in 1492…Columbus dreamed of defeating the armies of Islam with the armies of Europe made mighty by the wealth of the New World. It was this dream that, in part, began America." Aside from being a bigot, he is also apparently a Columbus biographer who doesn't know that Columbus did not set out to discover the "new world" and that he was actually looking for a new route to India.
6.One of his quotes on the validity of the second biggest religion in the world was:"Muhammad received revelations from demons and not from the true God." Really, glad you were there to confirm this for us.
7.Thinks the founding fathers accidentally forgot to add the words: God, Christian, Christ, Christianity, Christian Nation to the Constitution and says they really wanted the US to be a Christian Theocracy even though George Washington and many other founding fathers were Deists. This is what he uses to rationalize his own belief that the US should trade its democracy for a Theocracy which has worked extraordinarily well for other countries.
8. Believes in faith healing. Yes, the guys who dance around and punch cripples in the forehead.
9.Doesn't believe in hate crimes and thinks you should be able to kill gays , Muslims and apparently anyone else for who they are.
10.Tells Christians to ready their weapons and says he condones Christian riots against Muslims and gays.
11. Believes in, or at least tricks people with money into believing in "prayer cloths", which will apparently heal people...or some kind of nonsense.
13. Believes in, or at least tells people who give him money that miracles are real.
14. Was quoted as saying: "I just love to talk about your money. Let me be very clear — I want your money. I deserve it. This church deserves it." He was probably referring to all the lawsuits which have been filed against him.
15. Refuses to divulge how contributions are spent, other than his $800,000 home compound, ranch and his plane and another $800,000 home for his parents.

And McCain’s other former preacher endorsee John Hagee, had this to say:

1. Catholics were a false cult and the Catholic Church was a "Great Whore".
2. Called Harry Potter witchcraft
3. In his book, Predicted that Russia and "Islamic States" will be destroyed by God.
4. Said that China and "The West" will battle over Israel starting Armageddon and the second coming of Christ.
5. Thought Hurricane Katrina was because of Gay parades in New Orleans, not warm ocean temperatures and atmospheric pressure, even though the French Quarter was mainly unaffected as compared to the rest of the city.

It must be noted that Hagee was even too crazy for McCain and McCain has since distanced himself from Hagee and likewise, Hagee no longer endorses McCain.

Oh, and both have been accused of Tax Evasion due to their political campaigning during their tax exempt "church".

The main point here is that Obama didn't say the things that his retired preacher said 10 years ago, his retired preacher did. Likewise, McCain didn't say the things mentioned above but he has only distanced himself from Hagee's comments and Parsley is still his "spiritual guide". So if Obama is now this terrible racist then that makes McCain a gay bashing, Muslim bashing crusader, Planned Parenthood bombing, armed Christian warrior who wants to overthrow the democracy in order to establish a Theocracy, who believes in faith healing. We all know that this isn't the case or else conservative Christians would support him like they did Bush.
In other words, enough with the Obama is a violent racist crap. We all know Obama is as white as you get without having blond hair and driving a VW with a surfboard strapped to the roof.

So, if you're worried about electing someone who is associated with a controversial preacher, don't vote for McCain.

So, does this now at least prove that Obama isn't a Muslim?
