Subject: RE: BS: US Admin ignoring Chavez death threat?
In 2002 Robertson was saying they should do the same thing to Saddam Hussein. Bush didn't listen then. I doubt he'll listen now. The first amendment gives Americans the right to say crazy stupid things. Pat Robertson is one of many who insist that our country should commit crimes against humanity. Anne Coulter's post 9/11 pronunciations are another prime example of the way the first amendment protects idiots.
Pat Robertson had said that only Christians and Jews should be allowed to vote. He accused former president Clinton of a series of murders. Before Islam became a convenient enemy, he was pushing theories of conspiracies of witches. The guy has a problem.
Of late, Robertson has taken a back seat to his proteges, Ralph Reid and James Dobson, as a leader of the Christian right.
