I am sure the I-I-C (Impostor-in-Chief) had absolutely nothing to do with the dis-inviting of Rev. Graham.

Cowards running the show for the Army. I cannot believe how utterly PC they have become since I left. It was bad when I was in, but at least you could call evil, evil.

Of course Muslim’s will be represented they’re not mean like or evil like us Christians. This just in Franklin Graham also calls sky blue and grass green...the horror.

There has to be some way to let the Army and this pos president know that we loyal Americans find this unacceptable and intolerable.

"calls sky blue and grass green...the horror."

I sense racist overtones in your remarks. You need to go to rehab and take sensitivity training!!! =)

I wonder if they'll invite Jeremiah Wright to replace Reverend Graham.

“”The story said that Council on American Islamic Relations spokesman Ibrahim Hooper said it is “completely inappropriate” for Graham to speak in front of a military audience. These are individuals who are potentially going to be stationed in Muslim majority nations, and they don’t need to hear from someone spreading hatred of Islam and Muslims,” Hooper said.

Guess Hooper better brush up on current events - CURRENT for us and our military was on September 11, 2001!!!!
This guy is as irritating as the current occupant of the White House.

When it’s time for Rev. Billy Graham to go to glory, I sincerely hope that Franklin Graham invites, the Bushes and Clintons to the service but not Obummer.

Franklin Graham has more grace in his little finger than Obama has in his whole body.

Christ told us that when we take up his mantle we would be hated.

It will be over for us the moment we harm or allow Israel to be harmed. The only reason he has not lowered the boom on us for abortion is because we have protected Israel. But soon that will be gone.
