Wel, unfortunately McCain didn't actually do any branding, perhaps recalling his own misfortune as a POW, but this article explains why the Dangerous Duo should be required to wear "I'm with Stupid" when they go out together.

"AGENTS OF INTOLERANCE"
In Virginia Beach this morning, John McCain denounced Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell as "agents of intolerance." He made it clear that he did not mean to impugn religious conservatives generally, praising Charles Colson and James Dobson even though they do not support his candidacy. McCain said that "we embrace the fine members of the religious conservative community. But that does not mean that we will pander to their self-appointed leaders."
