Because it speaks volumes to his base.

There are very, very few if any Americans that had such a huge impact on the Presidency that wasn't President himself like Billy Graham.

Of course they should attend.


The only one that is a real surprise to me is Billy Jeff. He may be too far gone at this point, but I do believe he had a moral compass and Christian core at one time. He just never had the self-discipline to give it priority. These days, though, Hildebeast has probably sucked all that out of him. (I'll leave the obvious punch line here for others).

GHWB is too feeble to travel, probably, and handlers don't want to risk a grope-a-thon.

GWB is a bit of an oddity, but he's probably still a probationary member of the #Resistance that he can't risk the backlash.

As for Barry, no comment needed.

I started reading tigerdroppings when OSU played LSU in the national championship game my senior of college right as I began to become more interested in politics.

So from about the 2008 Presidential Primaries to the 2016 Presidential Primaries I was pleased to see a whole bunch of people who refused to accept the left's emotional appeals counter to objective reality, criticized their hypocrisy, wanted smaller government and less spending, and were tired of hero-worship of Obama and identity politics in general.

Then during he 2016 primaries this board started to accept emotional appeals counter to objective reality, became hypocrites, were fine with bigger government and more spending for things they support, and began to hero-worship Trump while resorting to identity politics.

So unless the posters changed overall, it's really shown that the many on the right think and act much the same way as those they on the left that that they despise for thinking and acting that way. The post and poster that you quoted is a prime example.

People will downvote this but the only President alive who has lived a life similar to that of Billy Graham is Jimmy Carter.

I thought he gave up being Baptist in the early 2000s because we wouldn't ordain women as ministers.

Or did he just give up being Southern Baptist?

Both men of incredible faith who got about the same amount done as President.


I kid, I kid. Graham was much more productive.

I'm a bit surprised Carter isn't there being he is a Baptist. But then again he's in his 90's and had the brain tumor scare a couple years ago.

The only services he attended during his married life were Methodist.

My father-in-law is a Methodist Minister and I shite you not, that he voted for the Clintons every time they were on the ballot because they were Methodists.

He did the same with the Bush family.

He's already paid his respects, just like GWB, while the body was in repose.

It's like some of you frickers are allergic to the truth.
