what a freakin' inane thing to post. "Catholics" don't "embrace" choir" boys anymore than protestants "embrace" lynchings.
Okay, catholic bishops embrace young choir boys.

Count your blessings. Such a pig/slug never mass murders non-murderers.

Sure thing, dys, but I responded to blatham's post in which it is the catholic publication pointing a finger at McCain.
Donohue uses his appearances primarily to attack gays and progressives. He has referred to the "gay death style," remarked, "God forbid we'd run out of little gay kids," claimed that Senator John Kerry "never found an abortion he couldn't justify," and claimed that "Hollywood is controlled by secular Jews who hate Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular ... Hollywood likes anal sex."
and this self-same bigot attacks Hagee?

I occasionally like watching you bugger yourself on other people's "freakin' idiotic threads."

Do you come?
No, I laugh!
So sorry, perhaps you can dredge up in your memory banks the days when you could still come, perhaps not. There's always Viagra.

Sorry, dys. Didn't see that one. I'm no fan of the fellow either.

No ... he refers to it as "balanced."
The right is presently waging a smear campaign against Obama centered around Farrakhan. The thrust is to suggest that Obama is, by association, probably a Muslim, and probably guilty of black racism and anti-semitism. It's showing up broadly across the right wing media machine, eg multiple (10 or 20 or 30) times per day on Fox.
The main significance of the McCain/Hagee matter is that McCain's connection to Hagee is considerably closer than is that of Obama/Farrakhan.
Whether the McCain/Hagee matter would have been brought into the public conversation had not the Obama/Farrakhan smear campaign not preceded it, I'm not sure.
But I think that the only way the modern right is going to cease being this morally and intellectually bankrupt is if they find the behavior not profitable. And one way to make it unprofitable is to return it in kind.
Well, that's like linking to youtube with the tempting heading, "The Best Monkees Song Ever".
Agreed, Ticomaya, and it is baffling that she is advertising against herself, but oh well, it further illustrates the disarray of her campaign. She can't manage her own campaign, let alone how can she claim she is ready to walk into the oval office and manage the country on day 1?
The phone call in the middle of the night probably would be somebody wanting to talk to Bill, or in regard to Bill anyway.
Hard to know what she could have possibly been thinking. (Maybe those rumors of her working for Karl are true after all).
Redstate has already altered the ad to run for McCain:

I am betting John McCain will be able to weather this storm much better than Barack Obama will handle his second amendment problem - he's way out of touch with even mainline Democratic voters on gun control.
