What is Billy Graham's rascal of a son up to nowadays? Well, it so happens that one of our favorite rightwing rags has an article about Franklin Graham and his current crusade in the Gulf region (too bad is not the Persian Gulf, or the heart of Fallujah!).
Keep the Maalox handy:
Franklin Graham Decries Katrina Response

MOBILE, Ala. -- Evangelist Franklin Graham has no problem taking a break from saving lost souls to lambasting the government for "dropping the ball" in the management of the nation's worst natural disaster.
Graham, who has taken over the ministry of his ailing father the legendary evangelist Rev. Billy Graham, 87, is sweeping through the Katrina-ravaged Gulf Coast with a rousing series of revival festivals.
He also is speaking out on the Katrina disaster - and many issues his father would not have, from abortion, to gay marriage, to the Muslim faith.

"As a Christian, I certainly believe that Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the light and that the Bible instructs that Jesus said, ‘No man comes to the Father but by me.' There is no other way to God unless it is through Jesus Christ because Jesus Christ has paid the debt - the price for sin - and the Bible says all of us who have sinned come short of God's glory.
"That is everybody. That is people from Baptist background, Catholic background and Muslim background, Hindu background, Jewish background. Whatever your background is, we are all sinners before God. We all have been separated from God because of our sins, and Jesus Christ is the only one in all of history that died for your sins.
