    Default 'Time' Puts Horns on the Reverend Billy Graham

    You decide??


    By Mark Finkelstein | August 10, 2007 - 19:49 ET
    Just when you thought the MSM couldn't sink any lower . . .

    Could there possibly be an American who doesn't admire the Reverend Billy Graham? Apparently, yes. Have a look at the cover of this week's 'Time.' Of all the ways the editors might have positioned the logo, they managed to do so in a manner in which the 'M' in 'TIME' is transformed into horns protuding from the good reverend's head.

    'Time' Puts Horns on the Reverend Billy Graham



    Tucker Carlson and Willie Geist took up the matter on Tucker's MSNBC show this afternoon.

    View video here.

    MSNBC'S WILLIE GEIST: A guy who has advised presidents, the Reverend Billy Graham on the cover of Time Magazine this week. I know the media is secular, but do they have to rub it in? A nice picture there of the reverend praying, but look at the horns above his head. A not-so-subtle message that maybe he's, well, Satan incarnate.

    MSNBC HOST TUCKER CARLSON: That is actually . . .. Have people complained about that? Because that's unbelievable.

    GEIST: Yeah, there's some chatter on the internet right now, and there's sure to be more.

    Glad to oblige.


    Note: when Viagra put horns on a man's head in a recent ad campaign, the FDA ordered the images yanked from the air. So what the government considered inappropriate in a Viagra ad, 'Time' considers appropriate in a depiction of the Rev. Billy Graham . .

    Lots of comments with this article at....

    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."
    Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC)

    For me, I remember him before this time, when he truly preached hatred of Catholics, beyond any other faiths. I grew up with German Lutherans that posted his pronouncements on their front door windows.

    He is a man of God and a Conservative. Yep, that is enough to earn the wrath of Time


    How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.
