http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/franklin-graham-oregon-refugeIn a post on Facebook, the Rev. Franklin Graham said he would arrive in Oregon on Thursday morning and head to the federal wildlife refuge where the four remaining occupiers are reportedly set to turn themselves in to federal authorities.
Graham wrote that he had been on the phone with the occupiers each night for the past week and that he was on the phone with them on Wednesday night as the FBI closed in on the refuge.
"I have been talking with the last four holdouts in the #?Oregonstandoff at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge every day by phone for the last week at their request and at the request of the FBI," Graham wrote. "Last night I was on the phone with them for several hours, was able to have prayer with them, and they have said they would come out today."...
Sean Anderson, one of the remaining occupiers at the refuge, wrote that he would turn himself in to federal authorities if he was escorted by Graham and Nevada state lawmaker Michele Fiore.

(50,566 posts)4. Well, it's good that they've talked with The Allmighty Deity about this.
I mean, sure, maybe there are babies starving and people inflicted with cancer and natural disasters taking out people right and left, but, hey, The Big Guy is more concerned with the Bundy loons. I'm sure of it.

Perhaps you should have a nice, long talk with some of these terrorists about their language. Think of the children! Thank you.

Or maybe he's going to offer to clear up the crap his buddies have caused. It's the least he could do for encouraging them.
