Our children haven't been torn apart by the ravages of war, we are not living the nightmare of an occupation, our economy hasn't been turned upside down by a foreign government, we haven't lived through an endless war on our turf. We haven't been targeted by the Pat Robertsons of this world..... there is a difference and it isn't a good one.

ROBERTSON: You know, I hate to tell you, Alan, but that is absolute falsehood, not on your part, but on the part of those who signed it.
