I am thankful that somebody is keeping an eye on us. Too bad it’s a critical eye…

Pat Robertson should apologize. Notwithstanding the obvious mental attrition the aging evangelical is suffering from, any comments remotely suggesting assassinating anyone is as far from the Christian doctrine as a man can get. Such is the height of hypocrisy that a man of his public image can consider speaking such un-Christian words in a religious broadcast. I have but two words: American Jihad.
Either this man is drunk with his own power over his easily influenced mob of mindless fans, or he’s insane. I’ll even suggest that he’s in late-stage Alzheimer’s and thinks he’s president, announcing ruinous American foreign policy in a State of the Urinal Address, but he couldn’t do much worse that what we already have…
I am angered at the kid gloves our administration uses to handle this outrage. Instead of treating Old Pat as a foolhardy blowhard, they just shrug as if an errant, toothless dog just tried to gum the postman; “Aww, shucks!” Angered, but not at all surprised; after all, Biker George the Cowboy has had his hands in Pat Robertson’s pockets for so many years, (edited sexual analogy), it’s almost indecent. If the offending comment came from a political antagonist…well, you know.
Trust the Holier-than-Thou crowd to publicly announce Jihad on a democratically elected leader, as our good Christian Americans watch as their chosen leaders murder families, ruin economies, and destroy whole cities in the name of White Man’s (version of) Democracy.
Thousands of Americans - who actually are good Christians - who try to lead wholesome lives, are victimized by the comments of one sanctimonious jackass; just as all of America is a victim of another jackass’ delusions of grandeur. I guess that’s why they get along so well.

Perhaps the Muslims are right; perhaps America is the Seat of Satan after all…
