New Nixon tapes shocker.

Excerpt:

At a later point in the conversation, when Nixon raises the subject of Jewish influence in Hollywood and the media, Graham says, "A lot of Jews are great friends of mine."

"They swarm around me and are friendly to me. Because they know that I am friendly to Israel and so forth. But they don't know how I really feel about what they're doing to this country, and I have no power and no way to handle them," Graham says.

Nixon says: "You must not let them know."

I say:

Never take at his word any politician/preacher who says he feels for you.

Truth is that which is the case. Accept no substitutes.
If competence is considered "hubris" then may I and my country always be as "arrogant" as we can possibly manage.
New In Charlotte, NC where Billy Graham was born and grew up...
and where we have an expressway named (un-fsking-believable) the Billy Graham Parkway, some Jews have suggested that it be renamed after Golda Meir. One guy suggested that what he said was true then and is still true now. Others requested that Billy Graham's column in the newspaper be dropped or equal space be given to every major non-Christian religion.

At the time the expressway was named, I objected because Billy Graham is 1) an idiot and 2) not dead yet.

He is an idiot because he said, while behind the Iron Curtain back in the 1970's or 1980's, that they had freedom of religion. It is not that I am in favor of any particular religious belief or practice, but the language should not be corrupted. My comment then was we might as well call the expressway Communist Worker Way.

In general, naming things after people who are still alive leaves you open to wishing you hadn't when they screw up royally. This is obviously such a case. Let's face it, the guy's a thinly disguised megalomaniac.

New He's no idiot
The phrase "give the Devil his due" is particulalry appropriate here.

You don't maintain that level of access and influence through that many administrations by being an idiot. Nor do you get it by calling them as you see them.

He's a pope, in the 12'th/13'th Century style. Fortunately, there is no succession, and his line will die with him. Otherwise, the next one, or the one after, would go down in extreme disgrace.

His power depends on flattering and legitimizing rulers who need flattering and legitimizing.

New No succession?
Son [link|http://www.samaritan.org/franklin/franklin.asp|Franklin Graham] is working on it.

And he's got a [link|http://www.ncmonline.com/content/ncm/2001/nov/1130fgraham.html|lot to learn]. At least some tolerance.
