The Rev. Jerry Falwell will not back former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R).

Everybody admires him. And I’ll never forget the great things he did on 9/11 and following. But, of course, we have, as conservative Christians who take the Bible seriously, we have probably irreconcilable differences on life and family and that kind of thing. I’ll never speak an ill word about him because he means so much to America. But, yes, you’re right. I couldn’t support him for president.

Sorry Rudy. Looks like you’re screwed. I didn’t know you were a fake Christian. I guess you learn something new everyday.

However, Jerry Falwell loves Sen. John McCain (R-AZ).

Remember Ari Melber’s piece, “The Bushification of John McCain” from Episode 2?

Looks like the supposed maverick is continuing down the wingnut path. Today comes the news that Senator McCain will be giving the commencement address at Jerry Falwell’s Liberty University.

American military hero and Arizona Sen. John McCain will deliver the Commencement message at Liberty University on May 13, at 9:30 a.m., in the Liberty University Vines Center. In addition, renowned Christian conservative leader Gary Bauer will speak during the University’s baccalaureate service on May 12, at 7:00 p.m., in the main sanctuary of the Thomas Road Baptist Church.

…

While Sen. McCain and Liberty University Chancellor Jerry Falwell have had their share of political differences through the years, the two men share a common respect for each other and have become good friends in their efforts to preserve what they see as common values. This will mark his first ever appearance at Liberty University.

Jerry Falwell is the man who said “If you’re not a born-again Christian, you’re a failure as a human being.” Is that one of Senator McCain’s values?
