In other words, McCain's no weak-kneed appeaser of terrorists. If God raised up Bush, and, as Hagee has maintained, the threat from Iraq was nothing compared to the threat from Iran, then his endorsement of McCain suggests that he views the Republican nominee, once again, as God's puppet for his deranged obsession with a bloody, war-ending war.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;hr size="2" color="#666666" /&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 10px;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;P&gt;In the summer of 2006, when war raged between Israel and Hezbollah, and McCain took to the airwaves to suggest we had entered into World War III, one of Hagee's friends in the Knesset, Benny Elon, said McCain &lt;A href="http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=holy_war"&gt;got that idea straight from Hagee&lt;/A&gt;. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 40px;"&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/hagee/" rel="tag"&gt;hagee&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/domininost/" rel="tag"&gt;domininost&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/wacko/" rel="tag"&gt;wacko&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/nutjob/" rel="tag"&gt;nutjob&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/mccain/" rel="tag"&gt;mccain&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/bush/" rel="tag"&gt;bush&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/mcbush/" rel="tag"&gt;mcbush&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/armagedon/" rel="tag"&gt;armagedon&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><clipSource>http://www.huffingtonpost.com/sarah-posner/hagees-lesson-plan-for-bu_b_102101.html</clipSource><pubDate>Sat, 17 May 2008 23:18:16 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Olbermann:THEY'RE MAKING IT ALL UP ABOUT IRAN</title><link>http://clipmarks.com/clipmark/1DAD0AA9-881B-4BC6-AA65-5CCCC2FC1A34/</link><description>&lt;b&gt;clipped by:&lt;/b&gt;

Some run deeper than others and therein lies the truth of Josh Fry's political sense. In a country that is rapidly changing demographically -- and where new neighbors may have arrived last year, not last century -- there is a very real sense that once-upon-a-time America is getting lost in the dash to diversity. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;

But &lt;B&gt;there's a different sense of America among those who trace their bloodlines back through generations of sacrifice&lt;/B&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 40px;"&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/media/" rel="tag"&gt;media&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/race/" rel="tag"&gt;race&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/racism/" rel="tag"&gt;racism&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/obama/" rel="tag"&gt;obama&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/homophobia/" rel="tag"&gt;homophobia&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/idiot/" rel="tag"&gt;idiot&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><clipSource>http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2008/05/17/parker/index.html</clipSource><pubDate>Sat, 17 May 2008 15:52:44 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
