As if Rev. Hagee wasn’t bad enough, the asshole who said God unleashed Hurricane Katrina on New Orleans to punish it for its homosexual sins, now we see that Senator McCain has actively sought, and received, the endorsement of Rev. Rod Parsley, a virulent hater of all things Islam. He calls Parsley “a spiritual guide”. The real question here is why is the MSM not dragging his ass over the coals for his close association with these two bigots.

Maybe I should believe in karma after all. Remember two years ago when everyone (myself included) reported on the Bush family buying up a 100,000 acre ranch in Paraguay, that long time haven for the scum of the world as it has no extradition treaties? Well it seems that the new leftist leader, Fernando Lugo Mendez, a suspended Catholic bishop, is starting to make overtures towards signing some extradition treaties. Looks like your bolt hole just had it’s door slammed shut in your face Georgie boy.
