Sarah Palin insinuates herself into the Billy Graham 95th birthday celebration in the hopes of absorbing a little of that evangelical reflected glory. Book sales, yo!

"So again, and I hate to keep bringing this up, have you thought about who would take over your ministry once you are dead?"
Courtesy of the Washington Post: 

The elder Graham was flanked by real estate mogul Donald Trump and former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Franklin Graham said prior to the event that former President Bill Clinton, who had been listed as one of the guests, couldn’t attend. 

“Billy Graham, we need you around another 95 years,” Palin said. “We need Billy Graham’s message to be heard, I think, today more than ever.”

She does realize that Graham can barely move around or talk right?

And I think I know EXACTLY why Bill Clinton couldn't attend.  After all what would it do for Hillary's political future if he allowed himself to be photographed with Sarah Palin and Donald Trump?

Palin is really hitting all of the evangelical hotspots in preparation for her upcoming book tour.

This was perhaps my favorite gif from the event.

"Hey, you and me in 2016. Deal?"

Oh even I can't get that lucky. Right?

  1. I bet a dollar that at the age of 95 Billy Graham is still drawing a full salary from his so-called "ministry." He could teach Palin a thing or two about grifting.

    I love the clip of Sarah holding out her hand to shake hands with The Donald, only to have him yank her towards him. If Sarah teams up with him, I can see who will be pulling the strings (and yanking arms).

    It's interesting that we didn't see politicians at Billy's Bash. I guess that means that Palin won't be running for anything. Her next speech is also for a religious group. She has passed her expiration date, and the people who still adore her are the extreme right wing of the Tea Party and extreme religious groups. Oh, and high school graduating classes.

    A number of politicians do have books coming out in time for Christmas shopping. But, Sarah's book is about Christmas, not politics. Except for the fact that Sarah is going to interject politics into her book sales so her PAC will pay for her book tour.

    Look how controlling Trump is. Now, Sarah is barely 5'3'' if that and a very naturally petite woman. Why do you think she wears heels? He literally jerks her hand toward him. I bet you he said, "spot on once again" or something in Trump business terms. Who knows though. Trump is a special person. haha

      Yeah, seeing the stone panic cross her face when she kinda realized he wasn't letting go (and he jerks her a second time right toward the end of the GIF like she was trying to get away)--- I ALMOST feel sorry for her. She's deteriorated so much that sometimes I wonder how much of what she says and does is really her idea(s).
      But even at her best (which was also somehow her worst-- go figure), she still didn't quite make me grind my teeth as much as Trump still does.

      ANYONE ELSE NOTICE??? No wedding ring on Sarah, despite getting that new ring.

    These whole scenes are so fantastical. Here we have a world-known evangelist who is not well and senile; his son has taken over the ministry and invites celebrities and millionnaires, opportunists, singers, anyone who can benefit from being seen and rubbing elbows with the big 'wigs'.

    To top it off, there is Sarah with Todd, who has been accused of being a pimp, and who a record (with video) of harassing people who question or videocam Sarah. And they chat and commiserate with the christian-right. Rick Warren was invited, as well, as Michael Smith (gospel singer), Kathy Lee Gifford, and to see Rupert Murdoch, Greta and her creepy husband, who, it's been speculated they are Scientologists (no offense to Scientologists), but it seems a bit surprising that these birthday partiers can point the finger at the little people, who struggle to pay for healthcare, or who are born "that way", or who struggle financially, or who don't want to be exported back to whereever land......it's a crass opportunity that will backfire.
