Been around here a long time, but this is my first post. I'm not sure if it's a vanity or not, but hopefully it's well-received.
I'm wondering about people's opinion on the question of whether Billy Graham would be receiving the same (well-deserved) honors and attention after his passing if Obama the Commie was still the president.
This question occurred to me on the way home tonight, and I'd like to hear what y'all think.
Franklin was at Angola to minister. He witnessed their work and asked them to make his fathers casket. 100% on board.
Obama, piss be upon him, has not even commented on the passing of Reverend Graham.
I am concerned that this will be expected for the, “reverends” Jackson and Sharpton in due course.
He has commented. Let’s get things correct.
FORMER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA
“Billy Graham was a humble servant who prayed for so many and who, with wisdom and grace, gave hope and guidance to generations of Americans.”
I live in Charlotte, yes he would receive the same outpouring in the south... but Obama would do the bare minimum and try to make it about himself in some way. Obama is a horrible human being but he is smart and this is an election year.
JUST WONDERING....
But did any one hear or read of any comment from Hillary Clinton, regarding the passing of the Rev. Dr. Graham? Is she out of the Country like Bill is? Saw where he gave a speech somewhere in London but didn’t really pay attention to it.. so maybe they are traveling together...
Maybe there are looking for a new home to purchase? will the media share if they do? again just wondering.
I also like Vanity posts as much as a regular post with an article. I like to hear other peoples thoughts and I hate when people bitch and moan because someone posted a Vanity. So keep posting!!
No, it does not matter.
Obama should be hanged.
Thats my thought.
He did tell me that a prisoner at, I think Angola Prison had made the caskets for Billy and Ruth Graham.

Yesterday afternoon my fathers body was brought from the funeral home to the Billy Graham Training Center at The Cove in Asheville, NC. His simple plywood casket, like my mothers, was hand built by convicted murderers at the Angola Prison in Louisiana about twelve years ago and seems to suit him. We have a Bible with him in the casket, and the casket is directly behind a pulpit. We felt this was symbolic since he stood behind a pulpit most of his life preaching the Gospel. Billy Graham preached about Heaven, wrote books about Heavennow he is IN Heaven. His faith has become sight.
Billy Graham brought Christ to many lives. So many that no matter who was in charge they would need to honor him . The political cost of ignoring him would not be worth any gains in the lefts battle against God.
It was read the McConnell and Ryan had contacted the Graham family to ask if they would approve. They felt honored and gave approval.
Now Rev. Graham lies In State (much like Sen. Teddy K) Will he receive the praise and accolades like old Teddy? Doubtful, at least from the left field.
His death has shown many a mad dog amongst us.

Maybe I'm one as I shared a few views which aren't the norm but aren't hateful or disrespectful either. Just honest for where I am now. I just wonder about things. I did some research on some distant relatives who had been killed in the Oklahoma City bombing. They did years of extensive missionary work in Africa, and are of the Wheaton school, same as Rev. Graham and his wife.
Billy is with God and no longer cares what anyone on earth does/says/thinks - he did tremendous good and the living know and remember that - later on we won't likely bow to him or kiss his ring - there will be a bigger "Him" to give our attention to.
Yes, he tweeted. After doing so Liberals beat him for attempting to carry on with his faux Christian persona (according to this article).

Considering how small our X-president is, of course, this would be doubtful. However he does have his LEGACY to prop up. Rev. Graham, serving many a president(both liberals and conservative) refused to serve BO’B. The two men had such opposing views on ‘ABORTION’ Graham declined to do so.

You have certainly shown no indication you are a mad dog. They have very loud barks and very sharp teeth and not adverse to using either.
Is it NOT OK to have different views or to speak of them, talk about them? (respectfully, of course) If society were not inquisitive, we would be going nowhere, many of us in the dark.
Yes, this is a vanity post. Anything written by the poster that is not published elsewhere is considered a vanity.
I seriously doubt Obama would allow such accolades for Rev. Graham.
Blessings to you.
