he late Rev. Billy Graham, the Christian evangelist known as "America's Pastor," will lie in honor in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda next week.
Graham's body will be brought to the Capitol on Wed., Feb 28 where he will lie in honor until Thursday.
Members of the public and Capitol Hill community are invited to pay their respects to the late reverend while he lies in rest.
Graham is only the fourth person to lie in honor in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda. The three others were Rosa Parks in 2005 and the two Capitol police officers who died in the line of duty in 1998.
Upon the arrival of Graham’s casket,...

Have the RATs, WaPo and the NYT complained yet?
From article...
“The United States Postal Service has said that Graham was one of the few Americans, along with the current President, who could have mail delivered that simply reads his name and the country: “Billy Graham, America.”
Protests planned by the socialist Dems, Westboro Baptist and other anti-Christian groups?
This is nice
Taking odds on the Clintons dropping by?
Carrying a gigantic-sized Bible, no doubt.
It's early.
They are a given.
I am waiting for some FReepers to complain about it.
After all he was not a president or a member of congress. How dare they decide to honor him like that.
I wonder if the left will protest and march on the capital?

I really want to go, but I couldn’t even get off to go on vacation that day (I tried several weeks ago). OH, I really want to go!
I hope all needed precautions are anticipated and taken.
The way things are today, Rev. Grahams body needs to be guarded while lying in state. It’s not out of the question for someone to try disrupting the scene, perhaps trying to throw something on his coffin. It’s not. Let’s not forget how the Libs reacted to just seeing a confederate flag hung on someone’s private porch. How the Libs react to the very mention of anything positive concerning Christianity.
In the Bay Area, there is an AM Radio Host who hates Billy Graham because of some allegedly anti-semetic statements Billy allegedly made to Richard Nixon. This was back in the 1960’s. People do evolve over time. No one is born perfect in every way. Nevertheless, Mr. Graham inspired a lot of people to know and love The Lord. This has only helped us as a nation and as a people.
Well, it’s Christians - 4, Jews - 0, Muslims - 0, Atheiests - 0, etc. so yeah, there’ll be screaming.
Oh No! The Left Wing will launch massive protests and hate marches now
Think that knothead from Teen Vogue who believes the Rev. Graham is in hell might be available to stand guard?

I hope the demonrats all have convulsions about his dead body being in their temple.
He is actually new in heaven today with a new body, celebrating in the very presence of God, it must be so glorious.
Lying In State versus lying In Honor
Of course many of our presidents and high officials have lain in state in the Rotunda.
List of those who have lain In State or In Honor in the Capitol Rotunda
Hoping that all the leftists and muzzies have a cow over that. Or a pig.
