McCain steps on his own dick

[Goober McTuber]

It was just a matter of time:

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Muslim and Jewish groups on Monday sharply criticized Sen. John McCain's comments that he would prefer a Christian president to lead the United States.

The Arizona Republican's remarks came in an interview with Beliefnet, a Web site that covers religious issues and affairs.

"I just have to say in all candor that since this nation was founded primarily on Christian principles, personally, I prefer someone who has a grounding in my faith," the GOP presidential hopeful told the Web site in an interview published Saturday.

McCain also said he agreed with a recent poll that 55 percent of Americans believe the U.S. Constitution establishes a Christian nation. "I would probably have to say yes, that the Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation," he said.

On Sunday night, McCain sought to clarify his remarks while campaigning in Hollis, New Hampshire. "What I do mean to say is the United States of America was founded on the values of Judeo-Christian values, which were translated by our founding fathers which is basically the rights of human dignity and human rights," he said.

"I believe that anyone can be president of the United States of any faith," McCain said, saying he was angry his remarks were misinterpreted but "there's nothing I can do about it."

He's either batshit crazy or lying his ass off to pander to folks like you.

[poptart]

He's not pandering to me.

CNN makes a story about a 'group' criticizing him, wow.

I'd venture that 'bout any time a high profile politicain speaks you have some 'group' critical of his/her comments.

He said nothing egregious or derogatory toward anyone.

Get a grip.



Slow news day.

[Mikey]

Are Catholics considered "Christian"?

Just wondering...

WASHINGTON (CNN) "...the U.S. Constitution establishes a Christian nation.

... of Judeo-Christian values..."

Judeo or Christian?

Make up your mind, you pandering cunt.

Either Jesus is Messiah, or he's not. Shit or get off the pot.

Well, when you have a Presidential Candidate who is apparently unaware of the Establishment Clause, that's pretty fucking newsworthy.

Of course, compared to the current CinC, for whom the jury is still out on the existence of the Bill of Rights, I suppose he would be a slight improvement.

I thought he lost it in Nam.

You mean he lost his mind?


No... it just slid down the side of his face a little.


And a presidential candidate who doesn't understand the first freaking sentence of the Amendments? Yeah, you tards will probably vote for him.

[Dinsdale]

So, let's see...


Current choices are...

A nog or a psuedo-dyke nazi on the one side...

On the other, there's a delusional goiter-toting fence-rider; a shameless philandering pubwhore; or a nutjob Mormon-Beaner who managed to fuck up the Olympics, yet feels qualified to run the country.


Awesome.
