Franklin Graham: Does President Obama think he's sultan of Washington in issuing pro-LGBT school restroom decree?

Rev. Franklin Graham did not mince words in criticising U.S. President Barack Obama when the latter issued a decree on unrestricted transgender access to restrooms in all public schools.

"Who does President Barack Obama think he is? The sultan of Washington? Does he think he can just make a 'decree' and we will bow down and simply obey?" a clearly indignant Graham writes on his Facebook page.

Obama's order requires all schools across the country to allow students to choose restrooms and locker rooms according to "their internal sense of gender." Schools that refuse to comply are threatened with loss of funding and lawsuits from the federal government.

Graham says Obama did not consider at all the welfare and privacy cherished by straight male and female students. He warns that some students will take advantage of the decree to sexually molest their classmates.

"What about the privacy and protection of all the other students? Isn't this discrimination against all of them?" he asks. "This opens up bathrooms to sexual predators and perverts. A decree does not carry the force of law – that's the job of Congress."

Graham once again raised questions about Obama's faith in God. "The President obviously must have no fear of God, who made us and created us male and female. I hope that school districts across this nation will defy President Obama and his administration's radical progressive agenda to promote and advance the sin of homosexuality and the LGBT agenda," he says.

On the other hand, Graham is lauding North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory and other state legislators for standing up to "the bullying and intimidation of the Obama administration" over the state's new bathroom privacy and security law. The legislation prohibits cities within the state from enacting ordinances that will allow people to use public restrooms based on their preferred gender.
