GOP presidential candidate John McCain picked up the endorsement Wednesday of San Antonio pastor John Hagee, who said at a news conference that he was giving his “vigorous, enthusiastic and personal support to an American hero.” Hagee, national chairman of Christians United for Israel, praised McCain for his anti-abortion record and his pro-Israel stands. KSAT.com carried the video of the press conference.

The Trail, The Washington Post’s political blog, noted that Catholic League President Bill Donohue is already criticizing the endorsement because he believes Hagee has “waged an unrelenting war against the Catholic Church.”
