Pat Robertson, tough guy extraordinaire who won't take any shit from a that cowardly "little jewish

radical" in the air force.

http://www.schlatter.org/liquor_officer.htm


In 1986, a new force emerged in US politics that would, in the 1994 elections, result in a major change in the alignment of the US Congress -- the "Christian right" -- an assortment and loose coalition of "Christian" organizations working, in their view, to bring about a "Christian" America. In fact, they are working to bring about an America that fits their narrow definition of America. These people are neither "Christian" nor "right." Instead, they are dictatorial, mean-spirited, and intolerant. Their principal leader is one Pat Robertson.

No doubt you have seen Robertson on his television show, the "700 Club" where, among other outrageous claims, Robertson claims to occasionally receive messages from God. It works -- Robertson raises huge amounts of money from the misled faithful.

I recommend that anyone who wishes to learn the facts about Robertson read this book: The Most Dangerous Man in America: Pat Robertson and the Christian Coalition, by Robert Boston. (1996; Prometheus Books, 59 John Glenn drive, Amherst, NY 14228-2197)

In his 1986 presidential campaign, Robertson claimed that he was a "combat Marine" who had served in combat during the Korean War. This claim was a lie, typical of others told by Robertson. However, this was one lie that he could not get away with -- there were Marines who knew Robertson and who knew the truth.
