I think now we know where McCain got the idea to seek this guy's endorsement.

Lieberman Address to Christians United for Israel

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Senator Joe Lieberman (ID-CT) yesterday delivered the following remarks to the Christians United for Israel Conference:

"Thank you for that kind introduction and that warm welcome. May I in turn greet you with the ancient words of welcome offered to pilgrims in Jerusalem - "Bruchim Habaim B'Shem Hashem" - blessed be those who come in the name of the Lord.

That greeting is especially fitting for you because you have come to Washington not just as men or women, Republicans or Democrats, conservatives or liberals. You are here as Christians United for Israel. You represent a powerful force of people of faith in America who have pledged to never forget thee, O Jerusalem.

And I know, as a Christian friend likes to remind me, that there are a lot more Christian Zionists in America than Jewish Zionists. And, I know the support of Christian Zionists today is critical to Israel's security and strength, and to America's security and strength.

So I am honored by your invitation to speak tonight, to thank you for what you are doing, to exhort you to continue to do more -- which is God's work, and to pray with you that you are successful.

I begin by thanking your founder, Pastor John Hagee. I would describe Pastor Hagee with the words the Torah uses to describe Moses, he is an "Eesh Elo Kim," a man of God because those words fit him; and, like Moses he has become the leader of a mighty multitude in pursuit of and defense of Israel.

1. OMG !

Lie-berman has, like, totally jumped the Burning Bush.

[Avalux]

2. This is really scary shit compared to what Rev. Wright had to say.

These people are extremists who WANT armageddon; they are salivating at the thought of nuclear holocaust in the middle east so that the savior will come and take them all to heaven. Christians and Jews come together for the cause.

Hillary's obliterate comment fed into their delusional nightmare.

Messed up.

[whistle]

3. Joe lieberman is now a total political opportunist

op·por·tun·ist / ˌäpərˈt(y)oōnist/
• n. a person who exploits circumstances to gain immediate advantage rather than being guided by consistent principles or plans: most burglaries are committed by casual opportunists.

5. The dems wont claim him

He has to pander to the only people who will play with him. Televangelists.

Lordy, I hope he'll be out of Congress the next cycle.

"Pastor" Hagee is a man of hate. :puke:

[shain from kane]

7. What are his 10 plagues for the non-believers?

[rateyes]

8. Christian Zionists are evil. nt

[Canuckistanian]

9. Wasn't Moses jewish?

I don't think Hagee would have liked to have been called a Jew.

After all, according to Hagee, Jews are to be used to fulfill 'the prohecy' and then convert or die.

[Jacobin]

11. Dude. Jesus was a Jew

[Canuckistanian]

12. I know that.

Just try telling that to "pastor" Hagee.

[Maestro]

10. This is what disgusts me about fundie and most

non-thinking Christians. Hagee is much more unstable and scarier than Rev. Wright, but Wright gets all the negative press. Hagee is a raving lunatic robbing the idiots who follow him blind!

14. BLIMEY!

No one needs fucking crazy Hagee.

And if there's ANY group that needs him even less than others, it's the Jews. Jews are the pawns of the likes of Hagee; and Israel is useful to them, to achieve some prophesied Armageddon, not for its own sake.

Whenever I hear of 'pro-Israel' people welcoming the support of Hagee and his ilk, I think of the Trojan horse.

Lieberman is even more insane than I thought.

Lieberman is a disgusting opportunistic slime. I use him constantly in GDP to explain that just because someone is from your people doesn't mean that you have to vote for them. :puke:

15. He isn't crazy at all, just an unscrupulous opportunist from Hell.

[Solly Mack]

18. Psst. Joe...you do know they run and wash their hands after shaking yours don't you?

Yeah - right before they drop to their knees and pray you come to your senses and accept Jesus...cause they'd sure hate it if you burned in hell for not accepting the true religion. So they'll pray for you and they'll welcome you and they'll even support Israel if it brings them closer to their much anticipated rapture...but you're still not good enough to join them in heaven.


Yeah, please, let me kiss the ass of people like that.
