Bill Moyers: John McCain's far right support by David Edwards and Chris Tackett
Published: Saturday March 8, 2008
Senator John McCain once famously shunned religious right leaders as being "agents of intolerance," however, he was recently endorsed by televangelist John Hagee, who has been a controversial figure due to anti-Catholic statements he has made in the past.
But who is John Hagee and what role will the religious right play between now and Novemeber? Those are two questions Bill Moyers attempts to answer in this in-depth piece from PBS's Bill Moyers Journal, broadcast on March 07, 2008.
In Part One, Moyers details John Hagee and revisits the 2007 Christians United for Israel conference. In Part Two he sits down with authors Mickey Edwards and Matt Welch to discuss how running for President has changed how McCain acts towards the religious right.
