another great moment from the 700 Club

"You read the Bible: This is my land, and for any prime minister of Israel who decides he's going to carve it up and give it away, God says no, this is mine."

- Pat Robertson

This man is endlessly entertaining.

Lateley, every time Robertson opens his mouth, I have to wonder if he is being paid by the Democrats. He's like the GOP's senile, racist, homophobic grandpa... they love him, but are more and more embarassed to take him out in public without his meds.

He is now suggesting that Ariel Sharon's stroke was punishment from God, for ordering the withdrawal of Israeli settlers from Gaza. A White House spokesman described the broadcaster's remarks as "wholly inappropriate and offensive".

I have a feeling it was Sharon's propensity for "meat in every way" rather than a vengeful god.

And some Palestinians have been heard complaining that a war criminal shouldn't get such an easy out. Right. That's how I want to go...a nice, easy brain hemmorage.

So, did Jesus strike him down or was it Fred the Donut Guy? (R.I.P)

Religious fanatics are great.


Other nuggets of wisdom from Pat Robertson:

• He has described feminism as a "socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians."
• Talking about Venezuela's populist President Hugo Chavez: "He has destroyed the Venezuelan economy, and he’s going to make that a launching pad for communist infiltration and Muslim extremism all over the continent. You know, I don't know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war, and I don't think any oil shipments will stop, but this man is a terrific danger, and the United States -- this is in our sphere of influence. We can't let this happen. We have the Monroe Doctrine. We have other doctrines that we have announced, and without question, this is a dangerous enemy to our south, controlling a huge pool of oil, that could hurt us very badly. We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability. We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know, strong-arm dictator. It's a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with."
• After Dover, PA voted out all 7 school board members that supported teaching "intelligent design" in the science classroom, Pat said this:"I'd like to say to the good citizens of Dover: if there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God, you just rejected Him from your city... And don't wonder why He hasn't helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I'm not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that's the case, don't ask for His help because he might not be there."
