Well, reporters did ask John McCain today during his trip to New Orleans about Rev. John Hagee's remarks that Hurricane Katrina was punishment for the sins of New Orleans:

"It's nonsense, it's nonsense, it's nonsense, it's nonsense, it's nonsense. I dont have anything additional to say. It's nonsense, it's nonsense, it's nonsense, I don't have anything more to say....it's nonsense. I reject it categorically."
