bigotry and lack of knowledge of this country - not a good combination!

McCain criticized for religious remarks
WASHINGTON - Several Jewish organizations criticized John McCain on Monday after the Republican candidate said he would prefer a Christian president over someone of a different faith.

"I just have to say in all candor that since this nation was founded primarily on Christian principles ... personally, I prefer someone who I know who has a solid grounding in my faith," McCain said. "But that doesn't mean that I'm sure that someone who is Muslim would not make a good president."

What has happened to McCain?
He has to know that this country was not founded on Christian principles and he is only pandering to the far right-wing with this nonsense.
He needs to simply go away...

Of course the lunatics like this:
