Politics and Culture

From the same intellectual heritage that analogized Bush with Hitler, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R, and Marines and Storm Troopers, we have the latest absurd equivalency from Roland Martin. Either the leftists who equate Hagee and Wright are cynically shilling for Obama or too stupid to contrast Beethoven and Brittney.

I would buy the comparison of Hagee and Wright if:

1. ...Hagee was talking about temporal things like A.I.D.S. or psychometry instead of theology and...
2. ...McCain called him his "mentor" and dedicated a book to him and...
3. ...if he had actually said anything specifically against Catholics.

Let's look at a couple of things.

1. This theological discussion discussion by Hagee:

John Hagee cited three things, Crusades, Inquisition, and Holocaust.

They're not all Catholic things. If it was an attack on Catholicism, why the Holocaust? He explains it clearly on the audio (with Dennis Prager):

Hagee interview. Does he sound like nutball Wright?
