Shame on the Republicans and the Democrats for passing such a wasteful spending bill last week. And to top it off, funding Planned Parenthood! A Huffington Post article called it “a big win for Planned Parenthood.” I call it a big loss for America. After all of the appalling facts revealed this year about Planned Parenthood, our representatives in Washington had a chance to put a stop to this, but they didn’t. There’s no question—taxpayers should not be paying for abortions! Abortion is murder in God’s eyes. Seeing and hearing Planned Parenthood talk nonchalantly about selling baby parts from aborted fetuses with utter disregard for human life is reminiscent of Joseph Mengele and the Nazi concentration camps! That should’ve been all that was needed to turn off the faucet for their funding. Nothing was done to trim this 2,000 page, $1.1 trillion budget. This is an example of why I have resigned from the Republican Party and declared myself Independent. I have no hope in the Republican Party, the Democratic Party, or Tea Party to do what is best for America. Unless more godly men and women get in this process and change this wicked system, our country is in for trouble. I want to challenge Christians, even pastors, across the country to pray about running for office where they can have an impact. We need mayors, country commissioners, city council members, school board members who will uphold biblical values.
Well now that is quite a rant.
Look, he even invoked Nazism.
Sadly for Graham I seriously doubt that anybody gives a shit.
The Republican party is dying, so obviously the first ones off the ship are the rats.
This is great news, for democrats!
ReplyDeleteDo you think Franklin will actually support nonrepublicans in elections?
Here's to hoping...
"Abortion is murder in God's eyes" ...actually... if he'd actually paid attention to his bible, he'd know that abortion is basically a traffic fine in God's eyes, not even a misdemeanor. I think it costs one goat.
DeleteBut the Bible IS clear about the worst sin you can commit. What was it again? Oh yeah, that thing where you replace god's words with your own. BLASPHEMY.
Oohh, good one Boscoe!
DeleteSays the hypocritical opportunist who has been shaking down the rubes longer than sister sarah for their hard-earned $$.
DeleteIt's a Christmas miracle!
ReplyDeleteLOL.
DeleteNo surprise here, but Graham is using lies to promote theocracy. By law, taxpayers do not pay for abortion, even at PP. Graham knows this, but since the truth does not advance his cause (and his income), lies will have to do.
ReplyDeleteThe Hyde Amendment (prohibiting use of federal funds for abortion) does make exceptions for incest, rape, and the life of the mother.
DeleteThose damnable, slutty women are always getting in the way of God's will, aren't they?
Well, fortunately for God, hapless deity that he is, Franklin Graham is always on the job to set things straight!
DeleteI love all this 'holier than thou' bullshit from a guy who pockets millions of $$$ from donations to his ministry.
ReplyDeleteHe does not even have a degree in theology. He just took over the family business. I can understand why he felt the need to buy himself a private jet, going overseas to preach to poor people. Here in the US most people see him for the hypocrite that he really is. ALL these religious organizations need to be audited. Nothing but money making schemes, from ignorant people.
DeleteWait until he realizes there is no other home for his particular brand of loony.
ReplyDeleteHey, Franklin, if by some chance you read this, would you consider moving to another country while you're at it?
ReplyDeletePoor Frankie! His feelings are hurt! The guy is a terrible example of a Christian - much like his buddy, Sarah Palin!
ReplyDeleteSeriously doubt the Republicans, or anyone for that matter, would miss his presence or thoughts!
The majority in America are not anti abortions and I say thank you! There is a proven need for the procedure!
I see a political run in his future. He scares me. American Taliban.
ReplyDeleteBut he has no party, so.....
DeleteWill Sarah do it to??? Doubt anyone in the GOP would care!
ReplyDeleteWill Sarah do it to??? whom... or do you mean will she quit the party, also, too. One can dream. She and Graham could team up and she could do it to him!
Delete$arah's got her nose up Trump's @ss.
DeleteFUCK SARAH Peeee, and her BUTT FUCKER tRUMP. The "menashe twa" may be over with this bunch of KINKS.

I hope everyone is aware that Sarah Palin has supposedly had an abortion. She referred to it as a 'white out'!!!
DeleteShe is one of the biggest liars and frauds walking this earth! Hell awaits her ugly soul!
You're funny Uncle Gryph. You put a smile on my face.
ReplyDeleteBye, Franklin. No one cares.
ReplyDeleteWhat is more important is that Graham suddenly became very vocal in political issues since President Obama took Office. PP was in operation before Obama, bio-tech labs and research centers were in operation, researching DNA, learning how to use donated organs to save lives, and Franklin, might I add, doing invitro-fertilization (a thing that might offend the creator). This has been going on for years.
ReplyDeletePersonally of course, the idea of selling unborn baby parts is disturbing. Yet, if the donor (mother) chooses to give tissue or organs so that other babies can live, there can be a silver lining to this whole discussion that Graham refuses to discuss. He never complained about dead body parts used as transplants to save others. Does Graham not think that business talk doesn't happen when human tissue is being passed on through the system???
This whole thing has always been about self-professed christian racists wanting to blame President Obama for every perceived sin and slight that they draw from the bible, so they can justify their own sin greed and power) and feel self-righteous. They knew there is a tissue/organ market out there, and never blinked an eye under the Bush Administration. What is so pointed is Graham and cronies using this issue to separate from a Party (GOP) that enabled, pampered and remained silent with them from
the start, in 2008. The old Republican Party is feeling the wrath of illogical unreasonable teaparty/independent spirit, that is frightening. And they know it, they screwed the pooch on this one.
the idea of selling unborn baby parts is disturbing
DeleteDoes Graham not think that business talk doesn't happen

It appears that this commenter has swallowed the doctored videos hook, line, and sinker. "Selling", "business talk", "market". No. The only money that Planned Parenthood ever asked for or received was reimbursement for expenses incurred in preserving, transferring, and delivering donated body parts to researchers. As I understand it, they now forgo reimbursement in the face of lies about selling, business talk, and tissue/organ markets that are being spread, even by this commenter.
Nicely stated! Thank you!
Delete7:14: Are you at all familiar with the mammalian birth process? After the baby (human, horse, elephat, dog, cat) is born, the sac in which the little critter has developed is expelled from the birth canal -- along with the remainder of the umbilical cord, blood, and lots of other fetal-related tissue. In some cases it takes several minutes for the placenta to emerge.
DeleteI'm an EMT and have delivered six babies on living room sofas, in the bed of a pickup truck, and on the ground of a parking lot. After we get the kid taken care of, one of us starts to massage the mother's abdomen to help the placenta emerge. Our OB kits contain a big plastic "zip-loc" bag into which we place the placenta, which we deliver to the hospital.
The placenta is examined for signs of abnormalities, after which, in most cases, the placenta and accompanying tissue is donated for fetal tissue research.
You see, fetal tissue contains stem cells. These cells can be made to turn into the calls of various part of the body as well as being used to develop and produce vaccines.
In the case of a miscarriage or abortion (remember, a miscarriage is a natural abortion), the body of the fetus can be used for stem cell donation IF THE PARENT(S) APPROVE.
No one is "selling baby parts."
Well put. Thanks for this.
DeleteSilly-ass bigoted man.

Thanks for posting that. It was awesome to see real Americans who love their President.
DeleteI thought that there was a separation of state and religion in this country. Get over it, Franklin, abortion is legal in the United States. The solution, for men and boys, is not to get women pregnant or, at least, to support them once they are pregnant and want to keep the baby. Oh, and it would be a good idea, Franklin, to support universal health care.
ReplyDeleteBeaglemom
The whole bunch of them are just angry that they aren't getting their way. Nothing to do with their religious beliefs (which I suspect are tenuous).
DeleteIt is very, very tiresome to pay any attention to, so why do we? Hoping they will grow up? HA.
Poor wittle Fwanklin. His Dominionist spews are not being listened to like they used to be. People seem to be waking up in droves.
ReplyDeleteHe will not be able to make this country into a theocracy, or a Nazi-like internment camp for those who don't follow his brand of xtianity. Hopefully his money spring will dry up as is happening to his BFF $P.
How many lies in that little rant? Isn't there a commandment for lying? There's a law that abortions CAN NOT BE FUNDED WITH TAXPAYER MONEY. Take your fear and peddle it somewhere else, you freak!

Such a piss poor excuse for a human. Another creature that is pretty sure he's god.
ReplyDeleteTake your ugly attitude and shove it, Frankie. Very few people give a shit what YOUR interpretation of YOUR book is.
Phoney chip off the old block.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if people like graham actually have read the bible if they have and actually believe it to be true then surely they would know the god they worship is the biggest mass murderer and aborter in the history of the world.If you believe in the great flood that killed everything except for noah and family that means you believe that god killed little babies that were just born, pregnant women with their fetus and a lot of other innocent people. They love that god but hate PP go figure.
ReplyDeleteIf Franklin Graham had the power, he would bring back the Inquisition. I don't think Franklin and his little buddy Sarah quite understand what a Democracy is or what freedom is.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, what is Franklin going to do? Vote for Hillary? I don't think so.
So, tell me again why this guy's projects are tax exempt. Isn't there some regulation of what churches and charitable orgs can do in the way of politics?
ReplyDeleteHe is a big example of why church and state/federal should not be mixed!
ReplyDeleteGiving him (or any of the other religious folk) tax benefits is pure bullshit! Congress needs to change the IRS laws badly, but won't because of the extreme right!
The guy (and the other religious jerks that don't practice their faith/teachings) literally makes me want to puke!
Here's a Franklin Graham story.
ReplyDeleteHe is Billy Graham's son. Young Franklin took up with loose women, demon rum, and various controlled substances. At some point, he recognized that, if he became "born again" and was "washed in the saving blood of Jesus," he stood to inherit his father's "evangelistic" enterprise, which is worth a few zillion $$$ and which brings in lots of revenue. So he had a Damascus Road experience and is now the head of the Graham family enterprise.
If the Presbyterian Church canonized people as saints, my mother would be one. She was a big fan of Billy Graham. She was active in church outreach activities in Knoxville, TN, where she lived for over 50 years from 1951 when we moved to E TN from Mississippi.
In mid-2006 she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and given a few months to live. Meanwhile, a group of churches in Knoxville invited the Graham's to bring their traveling road show to Knoxville. My mother was part of the committee planning the affair.
The Graham crowd sent their demands: (1) raise $150,000 for them; (2) lots and lots of hotel suites with 24-hr room service; (3) several limos on call 24-hrs a day; (4) specific brands of water and snacks; (5) all sorts of other perks normally associated with rock stars and all paid for by the locals IN ADDITION TO the $150,000 fee.
My mother became so distraught at these demands she quit the community evangelism organization she had helped found 40 years earlier. Her will included a 6-figure bequest to the Graham's. She re-wrote the will, giving the bequest to a local women's shelter. She died very disgusted with the Graham's.
I -- a VERY lapsed Baptist -- wouldn't piss on Franklin Graham if he were on fire.
Old Redneck, you have a gift for commenting.
DeleteYou just nailed the Franklin everlasting nauseous crusade to the cross... as they say.
of similar disenchantments but could not convey them nearly as well.
Great post Old Redneck. Franklin Graham is nothing but an opportunist.
Delete" wouldn't piss on Franklin Graham if he were on fire."
ReplyDeleteOh I would. Or any other time also, too.
Poor Fella, woke up constipated and is taking on the baby killers. I never was into "dead baby jokes", but bringing up Mengela and the Nazi's was a bit over the line for a preacher's son. He's not an orator like his pappy.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait till the Republican's notice and schlong him. Sad to say, but his father being senile is a blessing in a way. Having a grown son fall to the floor, flailing his arms and legs in the heat of a temper tantrum is just embarrassing. Franklin, my dear, I don't give a damn!!!
