His soul never wavered even as his body waned. Billy Graham passed not away but on to heaven this morning at the age of 99. Here is one of his sermons.
Marshall Ramsey cartoon to follow soon.

Trollfest '09
Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.
Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).
Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.
Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".
In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.
In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.
Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.
Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!
This is definitely a Beaver production.

Trollfest '07
Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.
There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag.

Thank you. A most humble man. He was GREATLY loved and will be GREATLY missed.
He led a highly credible life. Perhaps no other American has lived so much in the public eye with so little scandal.
Truly a life well lived.
Few, if any, since the Apostles had such a reach. There was neither prosperity nor politics in his message, just truth that was communicated simply. The world is a better place for his ministry.
FRAUD. Any preacher that builds an empire that personally enriches themselves and they family is a hypocrite not living the gospel.
@1:11 Spoken from a true place of complete ignorance. Bravo!
That being said, his son has completely bastardized, politicized, and monetized what once was a great movement.
Now, now, 1:11, your saying "FRAUD" about "any" preacher (and, ahem, "they" family)is a logical fallacy. Are you living the gospel? I would like to, and I try but fall short, as most humans do. Try looking at the big picture of Rev. Graham's life and example on earth, and the masses that he brought to Christianity.
1:11 is clueless. Billy Graham did not enrich himself. He came from a family that owned a sizable dairy farm. But 1:11 won't let the truth get in the way of slanderous fiction.
We need to put prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance back in the schools!
For shame, 1:11. To sweep Rev. Graham into the same category as shameless hucksters like Joel Osteen or that awful PTL creep (what WAS that clown's name...?) shows a profound ignorance. I am no fan of televangelism of any sort, preferring solemn ancient liturgies in really old churches lit only by candles (worshipping this way usually involves a transatlantic flight, alas), but anyone who ever chanced to hear this man could hardly doubt that he followed Christ humbly, and bore witness with grace and eloquence.
WAIT! they don't say the
Pledge of Allegiance in school anymore?
This is just said to support of government.
What's wrong with this?
He was a great man. He lead many to Christ. Now they will join the heavenly choir along with him to praise GOD forever. Before you scoff wouldn't you praise something that gave you eternal life? Or, would you just want to fall into a BLACK void?
The answer is a non-brainer folks! Praise be to HIS name.
A Vouge magazine writer called Billy Graham an "Evil Bitch" and a "piece of sh!t".
A Bleacher Report writer called Billy Graham an "anti-semite."
No comment from this crowd on Louise Farakhan, Alex Baldwin, Jesse Jackson, et al. As was stated above, never let truth get in the way of a narrative construct.
@9:08 - That would be Teen Vogue... and the "writer" is a complete clown: https://youtu.be/OGh1zl8aYXQ
Nobody, including the deceased, ever implied that the man was perfect. We celebrate the people that leave the world a better place than it was before they got here. That is why nobody dwells on MLK having a woman in every different city with a bus terminal across the south.
No clue what you are referring to bringing up Farakhan, Baldwin, and Jackson though... care to enlighten?
The Rolling Stone article said what needed saying about him. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/the-soul-crushing-legacy-of-billy-graham-w517067
4:16, there is no shortage of anti-Semitic tirades by Farakhan, many such by Jesse Jackson, and a few by inappropriate remarks by Alex Baldwyn.
