"Likes" A Prayer

By Zamboni

We cats don't do Facebook. We have enough on our plates as it is, thank you. But we're amused to see that all-around evangelical jackass Franklin Graham is posting desperate prayers on Facebook for the Supreme Court.

Frankie wants God to open the eyes and hearts and minds of all the justices who he fears are going to decide next month that gay people should be able to get married. If they would just recognize "the truth of Scripture"! We're sure that's going over well with the Supremes who are, um, not Christian.

But wait, there's more: Surely none of the 60,000 Facebookers who "liked" the SCOTUS prayers know that 40 years ago, Franklin's father, that noted anti-Semite Billy Graham, was caught saying some not very nice stuff about Jewish people on the Watergate tapes. Even Elena Kagan is old enough to remember that.

So we think that Franklin Graham is pretty much wasting his time with his desperate Facebook appeals. Because if Ruth Bader Ginsburg was indeed throwing hints around this weekend, maybe some of the Catholic justices are past his prayers, too. We cats PURR.
