Exhibit: Billy pastored presidents – even Dems

The Billy Graham Library isn’t hosting any convention parties – it’s more of a GOP hangout.

But Dem delegates can check out its new exhibit spotlighting Charotte’s favorite son as he hobnobbed over the years with U.S. presidents and other heads of state.

True, Billy pastored more Republican presidents, including Richard Nixon and George H.W. Bush. But he was close to fellow Southerner LBJ.

“God’s Ambassador to World Leaders” includes rare photos, memorabilia and handwritten correspondence.

You can bet he did too. Anything to get his face in the paper, anything to increase those collection plate offerings. I don't trust this guy anymore than I trust any "evangelist".

Hey Tim, why'd you leave out mentioning Bill Clinton? He's a Democrat too, last time I checked, and he appears multiple times in that exhibit.
