I never knew that John McCain was an anti-war extremist. You learn the
darndest things on Usenet!

I forgot about that bigoted imbecile.

Hmm. I have several political differences with McCain; I might even go as
far as "fool" WRT the war in Iraq.

But "bigoted imbecile?"

That's pretty strong.

McCain made some pretty ignorant remarks in an interview on belief.net.
Asked if he thought that Romney or a Muslim could be President, he
managed to offend all the non-Christians by stating that America was a
'Christian' country, ignoring the Constitutional provision against a
state religion. He also managed to offend more than 12 million Mormons,
who are Christians despite the ranting of a few over-the-top
evangelists who have appointed themselves the privilege of deciding who
is a Christian and who is not.

Indeed, if you want to find an 'American' religion, you would have a
tough time finding one that is more 'American' than the Mormons.
