J Street Put Pressure on McCain & Lieberman to Cut Hagee Loose

[keep_it_real]

From J Street Email:

We have already had our first victory. The same afternoon that we started our petition to John McCain to reject the endorsement of Pastor John Hagee (the man who said that God sent Hitler to force Jews to move to Israel), John McCain did exactly that.

Then, we turned to Senator Joe Lieberman's all-too-deep ties to Pastor John Hagee. Sen. Lieberman has called Hagee "a man of God" and regularly speaks with Hagee's so-called pro-Israel group Christians United for Israel. Tens of thousands of J Street supporters signed our petition to Joe Lieberman demanding that he withdraw his commitment to deliver the keynote address at Hagee's Group's conference in July. We also produced a video <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tk_ihPV1TMg> pressuring Lieberman to end his relationship with Pastor Hagee.

Joe Lieberman has not cut his ties with Hagee, so we're going to have to turn up the heat. We'll be in touch soon, especially in the run up to the Christians United for Israel (Hagee's group) conference in July, with new ways to urge Lieberman and others to reject Hagee.

1. Cut him loose?

He's already a loose cannon. :rofl:

I hope to hear LOTS more from Hagee in the coming months. He's the poster boy for the "lunatic fringe".
