As I walk through my neighborhood, I know it ‘tis the season. I see many signs for John Fetterman, and Josh Shapiro, along with our incumbent Congress person Susan Wild. However, there are a smattering of the “others” Mastriano, and OZ, but the Democratic signs surely outnumber the “others”.

What is strange is that among these political signs there are also signs touting that snake oil salesman Franklin Graham advertising a “God Loves You Tour” at our local fairgrounds in Allentown, PA. Here in this neck of the woods we don’t have (at least not to my knowledge) high tech tent revivals. In an area peppered with Protestants, Catholics, and Jews, who maybe show up to worship once a week, it’s strange to see this someone like him appearing this far north. This is being advertised as concert like atmosphere, with free entertainment, and of course the chief religious grifter...Franklin Graham son of the former grifter Billy Graham.

Aside from this being somewhat strange for our area, there is an advertisement on TV promoting this event which shows this God Loves You tour starting here in Allentown, PA and traveling through the Rust Belt; and (with the exception of Ohio) appearing in the states that flipped for Biden in the 2020 election. I guess I have to ask what the hell is this low life Graham up to? This is a guy who went to Russia and culled favor with that war criminal Putin and praised his cruel treatment of homosexuals there. So much for love your neighbor as yourself.

Franklin Graham, like his daddy before him are right wing extremists who scapegoat people in the name of religion to promote their extreme agenda. In the name of Jesus Christ they promote a twisted view of Christianity so they can further their contorted idea of what this country is supposed to be...a white theocracy. Franklin Graham, I am sad to say, is clueless with regards to how this country was founded, how our Constitution was formed, and he definitely doesn’t know the teachings of Christ by far!! Shame on him!
