Hillary's spiritual advisor Rev. Billy Graham
http://counterpunch.org/lindorff03262008.html

"But wait a sec. Putting aside the matter of whether what Wright said was even "hateful," this same Hillary Clinton chose the rabidly anti-semitic Rev. Billy Graham for spiritual mentor in her time of troubles during wayward hubby Bill's impeachment scandal, and welcomed his offer of support for her senate and presidential bids. This, of course, is the same Billy Graham who was caught on tape telling President Nixon that he thought Jews had a "stranglehold" on the American media, and that if something weren't "done about it," the "country's going down the drain."

"Now that certainly qualifies as hate speech, but it hasn't bothered candidate Clinton a bit to cozy up to the Rev. Graham.

Well, maybe Clinton just "misspoke" when she said she chose the Rev. Graham as her spiritual mentor. (Isn't that a lovely euphemism for lying, by the way?)"

This is a lead into a article of Bosnia lie

The writer is "Dave Lindorff is the author of Killing Time: an Investigation into the Death Row Case of Mumia Abu-Jamal. His n book of CounterPunch columns titled "This Can't be Happening!" is published by Common Courage Press. Lindorff's newest book is "The Case for Impeachment", co-authored by Barbara Olshansky"

1. I'm tired of hearing about any of their churches
Just get religion out of politics. They don't belong together.
