Day Three: No Straight Talk from McCain on Parsley's Call for Destroying Islam

No call back from the McCain camp yet.

For the third day in a row, I've called Jill Hazelbaker, the communications director for the McCain campaign, seeking a comment on televangelist Rod Parsley's call for destroying Islam. McCain, as I reported on Wednesday, has campaigned with this politically influential megachurch pastor, has accepted his endorsement, and has praised him as a "spiritual guide." And I've been told--once again--she is unavailable.

McCain and his campaign will not say anything about Parsley's advocacy of a Christian war against Islam that seeks to eradicate what Parsley dubs a "false religion."

Where's the straight talk now?

"Where's the straight talk now?"

And where are the M$M? They should be following your lead.

I am sick and tired of those of us who support diplomacy instead of war being referred to as "twirps," and "wimps." And how did taking a close look at how American government might have had some responsibility for turning otherwise peaceful people into terrorists get turned into "hate"? The "they" of Islam who want to destroy Christianity do not represent the majority of Muslims who believe in the same God as we Christians. And in labeling who is a true Christian, let me just say it does NOT include ANYBODY who advocates killing people for the sake of their misguided view of what they think their religion requires of them. What does the Lord require of us? To do justice, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with our God. Micah 6:8.

McCain is controlled by the Zionist money. He is close to John Hagee, a noted Christian Zionist and now, this clown(another Christian Zionist). This is way McCain talks about war with Iran in his first 100 days to get the scared Jews to donate money to his campaign.
