Read this at your own peril. Why Newsweek or any other news source would give this pompous arrogant gas bag the time of day is beyond me.

You'll be treated to such pearls of wisdom as


Talk about AIDS if you would. What work do you see that needs doing in that arena?
"I’m a pilot. If I am up at altitude and I am sitting inside the airplane and I stick my head out, I’m not going to live very long. God didn’t create me to live at 40,000 feet. I go to the Caymans each year, and I like to scuba dive. If I put my nose just a millimeter under water and I don’t have a breathing apparatus on, I’m not going to live very long because God didn’t make me to live underwater. If we get outside of God’s perimeters, we are at risk. When we use sex outside of how God intended sex to be used, we are at risk. People have to be educated as to what these risks are. What condoms says is: “If you use this the risk is now dealt with. So enjoy sex however you want to use it because you’ll be safe.” Wrong, you’re not safe. And the only way you can be safe is to use sex as God intended: between a man and a woman in a married relationship. That’s not a message that the world wants to hear. "

My point is, how will there EVER be any sort of compromise between progressives and this mans viewpoint?

2. Billy Graham CRACKER and his wet brain sons can bite my ass.
How I loathe these sanctimonious spawns of backwoods in-breeding. I used to work for a Graham from that family, one of the most crooked, lying, immoral SOB's ever, would do or say anything to make a sale.

I had hoped the Graham bullshit would die with unca Billy, I'm sickened that Franklinstein is going to carry it on for another generation.

3. If I had anything to do with it there would NEVER be a compromise
Those people are evil plain and simple. Why the media and others pay any attention to them baffles me to this day. They can all go f**k themselves as far as I'm concerned.

4. I think it's all about easy money.
Franklin Jr. was a wild kid and young man. I think he simply saw the empire that was his for the exploitation.

And that's why, thank heavens if not your God, most people in the world aren't listening to you Franklin.
