MONTREAT, N.C. (AP) -- President Barack Obama made a pilgrimage Sunday to Billy Graham's mountainside home, concluding his North Carolina vacation with his first meeting with the ailing evangelist who has counseled commanders in chief since Dwight Eisenhower.
The 48-year-old president made the short drive to Montreat from Asheville, where he spent the weekend, to see the 91-year-old Graham and son Franklin, also an evangelist.

Rut roh....uhbammy and his mammy are trying to soften the blow of ordering the Pentagon to disinvite Muslim critic Franklin Graham from participating in national prayer day there.

I thought it defiled Muslims to be in the presence of Christians?
I resent Obama for this and for the many other false Christian things he does.

Was Obama on a little rug facing Mecca?

I wonder if this is supposed to somehow counter Billy Graham’s son Franklin being uninvited to speak at the Pentagon....

I believe in miracles. Perhaps something said by either Reverend Graham might pierce the miasma of darkness inside Obama and create some ‘green shoots’ of humility, common sense and a respect for the individual citizen.

Odummy can “share” a prayer with whoever he wants.....but you can’t speak to who you don’t know and expect an answer.

That and also to try to nail down Heath Schuler's seat. He's one of the blue dogs who won a Repub's seat in a fairly religious district.
The dems have a right to be worried about those seats right now.

So, the devil tried to tempt the Grahams, eh?

Obama makes the kind of Christian that the world so expects to see.
...and in so doing makes a piss-poor Muslim.
(In this Christian’s opinion.)
