    I could have sworn...

    Falwell and Pat Robertson and Hagee said essentially the same thing about 9-11 and Katrina except they they blamed it on the gays..and were given a pass by the MSM. Wingnuts say crazy things all the time and to recognize it only validates it. This guy should be dismissed and recognized for what he is a nut case who last time I checked is not part of the Obama campaign
