LOL. Hagee uses scripture. Ask Hagee about his $1.2 million dollar salary. Hagee is all about the $$$. But, hey, believe whatever wacked out bs you want, it’s a free country.
See post #24... robo calls are not hotels. Whether nothing can be said about it is one thing... but that certainly takes it beyond personal endorsement. At a critical time in the Texas primary.
I did not say anything about supporting his book, or that I agree with replacement theology, or any of the other nonsense you just made up. I don’t follow Hagee or know much about him. I am making no argument from silence and simply stating fact from the Gospels. Jesus made his own argument from silence when he stood silent before Herod, silent before the high priest, and silent before Pilot. He told the high priest He was the Son of God and Pilot that His kingdom was not of this earth. Hagee is correct on this one topic being discussed that Jesus was not the messiah in the manner the Jews of his time were expecting. Even the Apostles were not sure and only Peter understood it when Jesus asked them who they thought He was and Peter proclaimed that Jesus was the Son of God.
Some thought the same about voting for Ronald Reagan in 1976.
Hagee runs his church like his own personal fiefdom. The church’s board of directors is made up of close friends and family and he has constantly refused any request to be more transparent with his ministry’s finances (unlike real evangelists like Billy Graham). While no doubt he will be careful to follow the letter of the law, his personal endorsement of McCain is, in effect, the same as his church and ministry endorsing McCain.
“praised Mr. McCain for his “solid, pro-life voting record for the past 24 years.’’
Well it’s not as solid as Mike Huckabee’s. Send McCain a message and vote for Huckabee in the primaries.
From the late Henry Hyde:
“Hyde, who has criticized McCain for advocating weakening of the Republican Party’s pro-life platform plank.
Pro-abortion leaders also see a big difference. Following McCain’s win in the New Hampshire primary, the Republican Pro-Choice Coalition said that based on exit polls, “pro-choice Republicans overwhelmingly preferred McCain above all the other candidates.”’

Of course he does. Bumiller of the NYT will do her utmost to make any conservative Christian sound dangerous in her articles.
