I’ve never quite understood how Billy Graham acquired his eminence, but his son seems determined to tarnish the Graham name.

“I have been talking with the last four holdouts in the ‪#‎Oregonstandoff‬ at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge every day by phone for the last week at their request and at the request of the FBI,” Graham wrote. “Last night I was on the phone with them for several hours, was able to have prayer with them, and they have said they would come out today.”

…'cause white lives of criminal vandals and thugs really matter

Ahhhhhh, the old God Feint works again. Sometimes God works in mysterious ways, sometimes He lets the FBI work mysteriously.

I suppose we’ll now be able to get uninterrupted coverage of the other wingnut conservative circus, the Republican Primaries, now that this little side-show is coming to an end?

Thanks for the link to the live feed. Expected to surrender at 8 AM Pacific, which is now.

While I imagine this will play out in an expected tawdry fashion, I can imagine a sad, surreal twist on this … nutcase wants two quasi-prominent people whom they’ve engaged to come and “accompany” he and his fellow nutcases out of the explosive situation in which they’ve placed themselves.

Hmmm, hostages? sacrifices?

As you all know, we’re not talking about the brightest bulbs in the house … but they do drone on about their willingness to use their weapons.

Something just seems off about this to me.

Off to join America’s equivalent of the Al-Nusra Brigade. Friggin’ Yeehawdists.

I met his father several times when I was a kid. He was kind and compassionate. Franklin Graham is no Billy Graham.

Franklin Graham spent an hour on the phone with the Y’all-qaeda militards last night, feeding all their delusions and paranoia, spewing anti-government rhetoric and revealing his despicable moral and ethical corruption to up to 70,000 listeners on the live stream. He’s a real piece of shit work.

I’m listening to the live feed. So much stupid that I’m consuming. Should I be worried about lasting effects?
