Franklin Graham Goes To Russia, Praises Putin, Slams America, Attacks Obama, Denigrates Gay People

[TexasTowelie]

In 2003, just before America invaded Iraq, the Dixie Chicks gave a concert in London. During one song, "Travelin' soldier," lead singer Natalie Maines told the audience, "Just so you know, we're on the good side with y'all. We do not want this war, this violence, and we're ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas."

That comment, a negative remark about the President of the United States on foreign soil, drew such heated outrage from conservatives it drew death threats and greatly harmed their career.

This past week Christian evangelical Franklin Graham went to Russia.

He praised Vladimir Putin, repeatedly attacked President Barack Obama, America, and gay people, and yet not one peep of outrage has been voiced by conservatives.

1. I don't mind if the conservatives don't get outraged, if Putin would agree to keep that little

shitheel!

2. He has disgraced his family name.

I disagree with Billy Graham on most issues, but I can't imagine him going to Russia and saying the things his son is saying.

3. I think he should stay there.

4. I wish they'd make up their minds on whether they lurrrve Putin or hate him.

5. He wants to have access to Syria.

I won't ever forget him being escorted around Iraq just a few weeks after we invaded. I still wonder if any of our troops died keeping Franklin Graham alive.
