I love and respect Billy Graham immensely, but for the life of me I cannot understand his chumminess with two examples of the worst that humanity has to offer.

I have to assume it's because Billy Graham loves people. Didn't Will Rogers say "I never met a man I didn't like"?

The article also said this:

...The book makes clear that Clinton is not the first candidate to have a relationship with Graham amid the rough and tumble of a presidential campaign. Dwight Eisenhower asked Graham to assist with speeches in the 1952 race (Graham declined). Lyndon Johnson invited him to spend the weekend at the White House before the 1964 election because aides were hearing warnings that he might come out for Goldwater. Nixon recruited him to carry a secret message to Johnson during the 1968 campaign; Gerald Ford sought his advice in 1976 when he faced a born-again Southern Baptist challenger in Jimmy Carter. On the weekend before the 2000 election, amidst roiling charges about a buried drunk driving citation, Graham appeared at George W. Bush's side after a private breakfast together — in the soon to be contested state of Florida — and said, "I believe in the integrity of this man. I've known him as a boy. I've known him as a young man. And we're very proud of him."

Jesus didn’t hang out with just the religious. He was a witness to the sinners as well.

Well it is all well and good I suppose to love and respect, but this preacher does NOT know his Bible. There is nothing about OLD Bill Clinton that makes him a representative of giving Bible instructions. And further the anointing of Hillry Clinton as the first woman after already serving 8 years as co-president without ever taking responsibility for one act she made happen, demonstrates this preacher, well I let whom ever fill in the blank, but the preacher did not get the instruction from the Bible or from the Heavenly Father.

I respect Graham also. I simply ignore anything he says about any politician. He is capable of finding something charitable to say about anyone, even the baby-killers like the Rapist and his consort.
