    I looked up Parsley after you mentioned him, and he doesn't claim the US was founded to destroy Islam, he claims that Ferdinand and Isabella financed Columbus in order to gather resources to smash Islam – thus the Western Hemisphere was first explored for the purpose of smashing Islam.  Which is at least partly accurate.

    Your Hitler comparison falls down because unlike Jewishness, Muslim-ness is not an ethnicity.  Thus it is an impossibility to be an anti-Muslim "racist".  Islam is a worldview, and it is totally legitimate for a person to be deeply critical of a worldview and seek to convert its believers to another worldview.  I find it refreshing to hear from a Christian pastor who is as enthusiastic about crushing Islam as so many Muslims seem to be about crushing everything else.  Still, I'm confident that if you drew a cartoon critical of Parsley, you wouldn't have to go into hiding to preserve your life.

    And all of this is moot, because McCain hardly knows these guys whereas Obama has been an intimate friend of Wright and actually chose to theme his book and campaign slogan on Wright's sermons.

    OK, number one, there is no McCain equivalent of Wright.  Obama spent 20 years attending Wright's church, took his kids to Wright's church, and even named his book after one of his pastor's favorite phrases.

    So when people try to liken that to some guy who's merely endorsed McCain, well, McCain needs to get about 65,000,000 to endorse him, and so he ain't gonna be all that picky.  Neither will the Democrat nominee.

    (And not for nothing, but I'd be surprised if a majority of Americans disagreed with the notion that the world would be a better place without Islam.)

    Heh.  That's a pretty funny concept.

    I presume your two-handed comment is because McCain isn't conservative enough for your taste?

    He's not a conservative at all.  As near as I can tell he has no ideology, which to me is a sign of arrogance.

    Who the hell is Parsley?  I know some people are trying to make an issue out of Hagee, but by all appearances McCain hardly knows the guy.  And Hagee's not even that bad.

    I already voted for McCain in my state's primary election and had to use my left hand to force my right hand to push the button. 

    But this '57 states' thing is even worse than Dan Quayle's 'potatoe' moment.
