- I find it highly annoying that this fanatic seems to pop at at
- big political events. He's been 'brown-nosing' politicians for years.
- I think the most famous thing involving him and the presidenncy was when
- Nixon was invited to speak at one of his stadium crusades. Nixon
- was still President at tthe time.
-
- Evidendly, a large faction of Christian anti-war activists began
- booing and chanting against Nixon, much to Graham's (and other
- all-American/Christian fanatics) chagrin. He seems to always be around
- when the US is in a war, for some reason. He was with Bush right at
- the start of the Gulf War as well.
-
- I guess he wants to make sure that the heathens get killed!
