McCain, Franklin Graham set Sunday meeting in Asheville

Comments on Topix forums : Sen. John McCain, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, will meet with evangelist Franklin Graham in Asheville Sunday.

[Meeting Franklin]

Meeting with Franklin GRaham by either of the possible canidates carries no weight with me.

I am a Christian and would rather hear the canidates praying and asking Christ for guidance than to publically shout they meeting with Franklin Graham.

Now, if the meeting had been with Bill Graham, a true Man of God, then that would carry some weight in my thinking, but not one with Franklin. He is noot the man his dad is!

I bet they will discuss an energy policy. Or maybe how to the end the war. Uh-huh.

I agree.

And that speaks so highly of you as a "Christian," to PUBLICLY down Franklin Graham. Shame on you!!

[James]

Typical republican tactics... pull the religion cards, if you dont vote for me you dont believe in God... Bush pulled the same exact move, and im sure McCain will as well

[Jerry in Asheville]

It doesn't matter who meets with 'mcbush'. I would not vote for him if he were the only candidate running! Franklin certainly isn't Billy who I admire and respect. To Franklin: If you can, GROW UP, GET WITH THE PLAN STAN!!

[Texas Fred]

Their "discussion" will probably center around their wild partying days and all the women they have "bedded"! Franklin could also talk about his drug and alcohol usage as McNasty was known for his drink concocions, especially the ones he did illegally while at the Naval Acadamy. Just two "Wild and Crazy Guys"!

You are certainly right.

Religion is for the weak.

[Tina Harkey]

Actually Douglas, Christianity is for the strong. To deny my will and follow my Saviour takes much more gumption that following my own will.

Glad to know Franklin is a Republican, now I know to vote for the Democrats. His father was called into the ministry, Franklin is in it for Franklin.

[Silverwolf 104]

Yep,McBush is pandering to the Christian right wing. Franklin Graham is not any more qualified than anyone else to discuss or advise anyone on world and national affairs. And why is the meeting "secret?" Is John gonna repent for his wild and wooly past?

[Roger]

What's the topic of their conversation, "Who would Jesus torture and kill?"

[Dunnin]

Well hell. I thought it was only a week or so ago that Obama met with Franklin Graham. Could be I have just lost my mind, but I dont think so.

Wish we had a REAL candidate to vote for.

Dunnin, there just aren't that many real men left in the WORLD. Thye seem to have chosen biking shorts over leadership.

I know we have a few good men in the military, but I still wonder where all the cowboys have gone.
