Sen. John McCain reacted to new comments by Barack Obama's longtime pastor, Jeremiah Wright, saying the comments are "beyond belief." McCain has worked very hard to not delve into the Wright mess, but with Wright's shocking comments, and Obama's statement that Wright is a "legitimate political issue," McCain has weighed in:

But McCain noted that Obama said on Sunday on Fox News that Wright was an issue, seemingly opening a door for McCain to connect the Democrat to his former pastor.

"I saw yesterday some additional comments that have been revealed by Pastor Wright, one of them comparing the United States Marine Corps with Roman Legionnaires who were responsible for the death of our Savior, I mean being involved in that. It's beyond belief..." McCain said.

"I can understand why Americans, when viewing these kinds of comments, are angry and upset," McCain said.
