IOKIYAR

Interesting ...

... the demand that Obama "renounce" and "reject" and endorsement from Louis Farrakhan, the renown bigot, white hater, and Jew baiter while McCain can openly embrace the support from John Hagee.

In addition to believing that we are the last generation before God destroys the earth and that "international television" is a sign that Christ's return is nigh, Hagee has maligned the Catholic Church as 'The Great Whore' and 'a false cult.' Accordingly, the Hagee endorsement has raised the ire of Catholic activists who claim Hagee is a bigot who regularly preaches anti-Catholic hate and blames the Catholic Church for the Holocaust.

It's rare, indeed, that I find myself agreeing with that other raving lunatic, William Donohue, Director of the Catholic League ... but this it maybe the one time:

According to Donohue, both McCain and Huckabee are equally reprehensible for courting Hagee:

If Senator Hillary Clinton and Senator Barack Obama were fighting over the support of Louis Farrakhan, we'd say they're nuts. So what are we to conclude about McCain's embrace of Hagee, and Huckabee's lament for not getting the bigot's endorsement?


Sounds to me like another case of IOKIYAR to me.
