(37,540 posts)"I look at a person's political interests...but more importantly, I look at their spiritual interests." Hmmm, you'd think he'd make the 'spiritual' statement, first.

That's why he has a tax deduction! He's not supposed to inject his personal beliefs into a political campaign. Lord, where will it end?

Then why would Graham give a frak about what religion *any* Presidential candidate is, if President Obama's Christianity is not good enough?

(15,064 posts)He does not speak for all Christians. He is a deceitful con man that works with the TBN, Paul and Jan Crouch crowd.
In my home town there was a man whose father was coming down with alzheimers. The father sent Billy Graham $50,000.
The son contacted the Graham organization explaining that it was his fathers entire savings and was being used for his medical needs.
They refused to return it. This was many years ago and I'm sure nothing has changed.

"In an interview last week with Newsmax.com, a conservative website (that pushes the Obama-was-born-in-Kenya conspiracy theory), Franklin Graham, an evangelist like his father, Billy Graham, claimed that the fundamentalist Islamic political group has burrowed into the Obama administration and is shaping US foreign policy."
This is the same nut that said:
"On August 19, 2010, when asked by CNN correspondent John King if he had doubts that President Barack Obama is a Christian, Graham stated, "I think the president's problem is that he was born a Muslim, his father was a Muslim. The seed of Islam is passed through the father like the seed of Judaism is passed through the mother. He was born a Muslim, his father gave him an Islamic name."
This sack of spoiled tuna fish in white dress shirt and a tie got what was coming to him on Morning Joe.
No one should care what this snake oil salesman thinks. Just turn off corporate owned media.
