snip of article

I Don’t Know What the Issue Is’
Christian Evangelical Leader Franklin Graham says the allegations of sexual assault and attempted rape against Judge Brett Kavanaugh by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford are simply “not relevant” (video below.)

The 66-year old ordained minister and political activist spoke with Pat Robertson’s Christian Broadcasting Network Tuesday, saying, “it’s just a shame that a person like Judge Kavanaugh who has a stellar record–that somebody can bring something up that he did as a teenager close to 40 years ago. That’s not relevant.”

old Franklin would find it VERY relevant if this guy was a liberal. Or if the accuser was his daughter.

Maybe not even if she were his daughter, since these types place no value on the life if a woman, anyway.

Do these sanctimonious creeps EVER realize how breathtaking is their hypocrisy and misogyny?

The thread of disdain for women is prominent in that culture. They claim to "revere" women, when it's the opposite. They see them as toys to be used however they want and it doesn't matter whether the women/girls agree or not because they are the "subservient sex". Women don't get the ability to fight back against non-consensual sex, they should have submitted to the white male in the first place, in their opinion. So-called religious leaders excuse rape any time it's done by a conservative white male because it's convenient to promote their power base. That is all they care about, promoting the Russian Repug state by any means possible.
