Billy Graham – Media uses evangelist to try and smooth over Hillary

You can dispute it, but you’ll still be wrong.

Hillary has a public image and the polls show that the people don’t think her current image is a very flattering one. She comes across as a harping, callous, angry woman to many people and the MSM has to try and go behind her to perform damage control. So, in the latest attempt at giving Mrs. Clinton a shiny new look they turn to evangelist Billy Graham. The Reverend was known to have been a long friend of the Clinton’s, and for that reason alone I became very weary about the relationship. Sources say that Mr. Graham was very fond of the Clintons:

Both Bill and Hillary Clinton were sitting with him on stage in Flushing Meadows when Graham greeted them as his “wonderful friends of many years.” “I told him,” Graham said of President Clinton, “when he left the presidency, he should become an evangelist, because he had all the gifts.” Graham paused, and added with a smile, “And he could [let] his wife run the country.”

I imagine this is the part where I’m supposed to just fall back and swoon at the notion that a world famous evangelist just gave his approval to the Clinton’s. To a simple, uneducated citizen they might be swayed but for someone, like myself, who remembers the sexual deviancy, the constant scandals, and the embarrassment that they both left on the White House well….I have to question Mr. Graham’s motives for saying such a thing. It was claimed as a joke, but I didn’t find it funny.

So, the question is why is this story gaining so much ground? Well, the religious right doesn’t really like Hillary and she desperately needs those votes. Many of the right favor Billy Graham so the MSM figures if the Crusading evangelist was backing the illustrious Hillary then they might consider voting for her as opposed to a republican candidate who cant make up his mind on what he believes.

The problem with this is that most of the public doesn’t pay attention to the finer details of things. They mostly don’t hear that Clinton is an avid supporter of anti-military action (despite her vote to authorize the war), she is a well known socialist who favors governmental regulation and control, she is a supporter of Abortion rights and Homosexuality rights. However, the conservatives wont pick any of that up, but instead see piece after piece on how “spiritual” Hillary is.

I, for one, ain’t falling for the sham, and I think it’s deplorable to try and use this news piece to try and win Hillary some votes.
