In Church, McCain Unwittingly Becomes Part of Sermon
(CBS)
(PHOENIX) – Seeing yourself talk about the break-up of your marriage on the big screen is probably not what John McCain expected when he went to church this morning.
But that’s exactly what happened at the North Phoenix Baptist Church today, when Pastor Dan Yeary played a clip from Rick Warren’s interview with McCain last weekend where he asked him what his “greatest moral failing” was.
"The failure of my first marriage," McCain told Warren. “It's my greatest moral failure."
McCain and his wife Cindy both looked visibly uncomfortable during the presentation, which was played on big screens in the sanctuary where about 1,000 people had gathered for the service. Yeary also played Barack Obama’s answer, where he talked about experimenting with drugs and drinking when he was a teenager.
Yeary’s point was that everyone has moral failings and that it took courage for both presidential candidates to admit to them on national TV.
As a concerned disabled American Veteran and American citizen, I consider it my duty and responsibility to bring following critical characteristics of so called Maverick McCain to you for proving me wrong or right.
"The citizens of the United States of America have the ultimate responsibility to elect the " Right Candidate with the right temperament" to lead our nation'' to address our nations present and future moral, democratic, economic, educational, health care, energy, military, and foundational soul of our nation.
In my firm professional opinion that the media should help the common voter to explore and discuss following attributes of Hon. Senator McCain.
1. Does he have a calm, cool, and collected " temper " [ Presidential Temperament ]?
2. Does he have a sound and sustained "Judgment and Caliber"?
3. Does he have a reveal a presidential "Thought-fullness and togetherness" of purpose and positions?
4. Does he lot or little "ex-poser and exploitation" around Washington"?
5. Does he poses enough " Vigor, wisdom and Vision " for our Great-grand Nation?
6. Does he poses foreign policy exploit-es based on " American Values, Virtuous, Vastness"?
7. Does his campaign talk. slogans and ads are based of facts and free of fiction, deception, seduction, and attacks?
Long live U.S.A and its democratic people and their common sense.
This happened in his 30''s, when he had a 10 YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER. He was supposed to be a responsible ADULT.
To compare McCain''s despicable behavior to the teen troubles Obama got into is ludicrous. 90% of Americans got into trouble as teens, and many of our religious, political and business leaders got into teen trouble as well.
McCain''s SLEAZE is a horrible indictment against his judgment and ability to lead this country.
Every woman and responsible man should know the REAL MCCAIN STORY: Poor Officer, despicable husband, Navy troublemaker, and liar.
Having said that you must not have paid much attention to what this guy said about everyone having faults etc. Well you''ve told us all about McCains faults so why don''t you tell us all about yours.
Just like in the beginning, the middle and now....
Hillary can beat McCain
Obama can''t.
And everything else has just been a lot of expensive, time consuming BS!!!!
Maybe. He also WILL.
But for all of us it is better for her NOT to be in the white House.
For all of us.
this ticket couldn''t be better.
McCain ''08 experience and vision for the best America can be.
McCain/anyone is gonna smoke obama/biden.
biden is a loser that''s a fact.
outside of deleware he''s a nobody a nothing.
he offers nothing to an inexperienced swindler like obama.
Ever since McCain became super wealthy in 2000, he''s betrayed the GOP ideals. A balanced budget and never start a war because every single American life is far too valuable.
Vote Bob Barr!
McCain was immediately dazzled and spent the event chatting her up.
"She was lovely, intelligent and charming, 17 years my junior but poised and confident," McCain wrote in his 2002 book, Worth the Fighting For. "I monopolized her attention the entire time, taking care to prevent anyone else from intruding on our conversation. When it came time to leave the party, I persuaded her to join me for drinks at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel. By the evening''s end, I was in love."
McCain recalls that both he and Cindy initially lied to each other about their ages. McCain made himself a little younger, and Cindy made herself a little older. They found out their real ages when the local paper published them. McCain was 43, Cindy 25.
After a whirlwind courtship, John asked Cindy to marry him. But there were some "details" to clear out of the way. McCain needed a divorce from Carol, his wife of 14 years.
After McCain''s dramatic homecoming from Vietnam, his marriage to Carol began disintegrating while McCain was stationed in Jacksonville. McCain has admitted to having extramarital affairs.
Although McCain suggested in his autobiography that months passed between his divorce and remarriage, the divorce was granted April 2, 1980, and he wed Cindy Hensley in a private ceremony five weeks later. McCain obtained an Arizona marriage license on March 6, 1980, while still legally married to his first wife.
As heiress to her father''s stake in Hensley & Co. of Phoenix, Cindy McCain is an executive whose worth
In 1994, Cindy McCain granted interviews to a TV station & 3 newspapers in Arizona, in which she talked about her addiction to Percocet and Vicodin. She claimed that her addiction came about after painful back and knee problems and was exacerbated by the stress of the Keating Five banking scandal that involved John McCain.
To make matters worse, Cindy McCain admitted, she had stolen the drugs from the American Voluntary Medical Team, her own charity, and had been investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration.
And that, Ladies & Gentlemen, is just the stuff we KNOW about.

McCain even applied for a marriage license before his divorce. Once he got his divorce, he married Cindy in 5 WEEKS. YES,
REPUBLICANS...FIVE WEEKS. MCCAIN IS SCUM IN MY BOOK AND ANY FAMILY VALUE REPUBLICAN SHOULD READ ALL THIS MAN. He & Cindy paid off his 1st wife to shut her up & Cindy has the fortune of $200 MILLION to keep her quiet.
Meanwhile, McCain plays the wounded POW very well...like he was the only one held as pow in Vietnam. Funny thing I saw actual film of him walking out of the pow camp last week on CNN and yet when he got his medals from Nixon he was on crutches. He really likes to play us on his injuries...this is how he got elected in Arizona..playing up the injured soldier. It''s enough already!
Looks like the McCains should have stayed with the Episcopal Church.
Baptist love to point out flaws of church members. Episcopalians mind their own business. Has anyone ever figured out why John & Cindy changed religions...I think I know why??? Can you say South Carolina.... check out this site..

- John and Cindy McCain have been members of NPBC for many years. Pastor Yeary was trying to show that we all have failings. A sin is a sin and John has asked and recieved forgiviness. That is all that matters. God forgives and we in turn, forgive. Try to find a candidate or any one for that matter who is free from sin. There was only one. The scripture tells us that "All have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God".
