McCain's Pal Lieberman to Speak at Hagee's Affair

Pastor John Hagee is a well known racist, who McCain denounced during the primaries. Hagee's got some great video on youtube. 
But Lieberman, who is speaking at Hagee's conference, ought to please a few conservatives that are ticked off at McCain not being conservative enough. Lieberman has been slamming Obama for "choosing" to lose in Iraq, which is just silly, really. Why would Obama choose to lose? Goofball. 
McCain's camp has nothing. Democrats are trying to boot Lieberman from the democratic caucus. He's a democrat? 
Swamp: Sen. Joe Lieberman is set to deliver a speech to this week's Christians United for Israel summit in DC. It won't be the first time. Last year, he attended and compared the group's controversial leader, Pastor John Hagee, to Moses. Now, more than 42,000 people -- organized by J Street and Democracy for America -- have apparently signed a petition (delivered to him today) asking Lieberman to skip it tomorrow, calling it their "Don't Go Joe" campaign.

Arshad Hasan, executive director of Democracy for America argued, "Pastor Hagee is a bigot and a sexist. If Joe Lieberman speaks at his conference, he is giving a seal of approval to a man who thinks it's fine to use fear and hatred to demonize Americans."


Booting Joe. Sign the petition.
