Columbus — Georgia Republican Party chairwoman Sue Everhart said Saturday that the party's presumed presidential nominee has a lot in common with Jesus Christ.

"John McCain is kind of like Jesus Christ on the cross," Everhart said as she began the second day of the state GOP convention. "He never denounced God, either."

Everhart was praising McCain for never denouncing the United States while he was being tortured as a prisoner of war in Vietnam.

"I'm not trying to compare John McCain to Jesus Christ, I'm looking at the pain that was there," she said.

2. If McCain gets elected, we'll have some pain, alright!

In 2004, they wanted Bush compared with God. Now McCain only gets Jesus?
Times must be looking bleak for the Republicans, indeed! If things keep
up their downward slide at this furious pace, their vice-presidential
candidate may end up being no more than a Saint. They're doomed, I tell ya.

5. Like Jesus would occupy another sovereign nation for 100 years if necessary to harvest

all their oil. Yeah, guess McShame is a bit Jesus-like. :D

6. This is getting beyond bizarre! Earlier, the National GOP guy

compared McCain to Lincoln! http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3301378 This looks like some strange, delusional game of one-upsmanship.

7. So they promoted him from Saint. I say good for him!

8. As in, he will be sacrificed for the sins of the RNC

Somehow, it doesn't quite satisfy, though.

9. What an insult to Jesus!

God's gonna get you, Susie!

McCain is a loser who came in almost at the very bottom of his US Naval Academy graduating class. He went to war and got shot down and captured. The enemy wrecked his mind while he was in captivity. Now mentally impaired, McCain became a Senator and today his mental problems are on display for all America to see and cringe at.

Yup, that's Jesus alright. Like two peas in a pod!
