Newsflash: Pat Still Thinks With His A$$

The Reverend Pat Robertson says Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s massive stroke could be God’s punishment for giving up Israeli territory.
What a buffoon. But of course he’s a “major religious leader” here in the States.
Update: Boy, it’s a catfight to spit on his grave first:

TEHRAN, Iran –
Iran’s president said Thursday he hoped for the death of Israeli Prime Minister
Ariel Sharon, the latest anti-Israeli comment by a leader who has already provoked international criticism for suggesting that
Israel be “wiped off the map.”

Now, I was listening to WCBS-AM on the drive home tonight, and both of these fellows were mentioned. However, one of them was only quoted at 5:27 as sort of an aside before the traffic report and not mentioned at all in the 5:30 national news feed, and the other was mentioned both at the 5:27 quickie and figured prominently in the main 5:30 national news feed. Can our saavy readers deduce whom the MSM deems to be the most important commentator on this event?
Well, duh.

    Jeebus. Hasn’t somebody shot that old bugger yet?

    I was just saying how you’d turn blue in the face holding your breath for something like this out of (say) the Pope. But now here’s this nutter saying that God has done to Sharon exactly what the Islamabats say Allah has done to Sharon, only for the opposite reason. No wonder there are so many good Jewish comedians: if you didn’t laugh about things, stuff like this would snap you like a dry twig.

    Holy Moly.
    What do you suppose ole Pat will offer up as the motivator behind “God’s will” when some sort of illness befalls Pat himself?
    Maybe some rheumy, nebulous thing like, “God moves in mysterious ways…”

    Pat remains the model Religious Fanatic Nutjob for America. Unfortuntately.

  5. Susanna says:

    Right, because obviously Robertson is far more nefarious than the Iranian nutter.
    The MSM is, ummm, SO CONSCIENTIOUS, aren’t they?

  6. Mr. Bingley says:

    Ah, I see you are on the path to true understanding, Susanna!

    Dear God,
    I promise I will totally start believing in you again – I’ll go to church and everything – if you take this f***ker out NOW. Lightning bolt, domestic accident, chihuahua mauling, whatever. I’m not picky.
    Thanks,

    This just in: Pat Robertson is still an asshole. Brought to you by the Family Swill….

    Pat Robertson is a boil on the buttocks of humanity. The sooner he’s lanced, the better.

  10. The_Real_JeffS says:

    Maybe we can ship Pat off to Iran for coffee and cake with the Mad Mullahs. Y’know, strapped to a cruise missile?

    Heheheheheh. I can see him pulling the Slim Pickens on the way down, too. Yeeeee-ha!

    Just sad. And how many little old ladies keep sending him money every month? The wonders he does for the Christian community…..

  13. Crusader says:

    He is a media darling, as he is the poster child of all the Right is to the media. As for his money, he has an average audience of around 870,000 per day. If each viewer gives an average of $12.30 per month, that more than covers his whole amount listed from donations (roughly $132 million in 2004). And that is less than a million people out of a country of almost 300 million, or less than 1/2 of 1% of the US population. And this does not count his donors overseas. If the media ignored him, as most Christians do, he would fade away…..
