This is just wayyyyy too funny.

From Claynation at cbs.com
Every now and then, a ClayNation reader e-mail causes me to question my entire worldview. Such was recently the case. We received many responses regarding my quest to leg press 400 pounds and "show up former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright." None was more shocking than this one from Ken Pederson of Seattle:
"400 pounds is nothing! Rev. Pat Robertson, 76, can leg press 2,000 pounds. I saw him on TV the other day and the capillaries in his eyes looked just fine!"

Pat Robertson's Age-Defying Shake
Did you know that Pat Robertson can leg-press 2000 pounds! How does he do it?
Where does Pat find the time and energy to host a daily, national TV show, head a world-wide ministry, develop visionary scholars, while traveling the globe as a statesman?
One of Pat's secrets to keeping his energy high and his vitality soaring is his age-defying protein shake. Pat developed a delicious, refreshing shake, filled with energy-producing nutrients.

my two-cents:
"develop visionary scholars??????" "traveling the globe as a statesman???"

What a crank!

[Skidmore]

2. Snake oil salesman.

20. If marion 'pat' robertson lived 130 years ago

I see him rolling into some little town in the middle of nowhere with his cart "Dr. Pat's Miracle Cures for What Ails You' printed in bold letters on a sign.

"Ladies and gentlemen step right up! See the most fantabulous, contabulous, incredible new miracle drink. It's a wonder of modern science. It'll turn any 98-lb weakling into a powerhouse. Whyyyyyy...my assistant here used to get sand kicked in his face where ever he went. The ladies ignored him because he was so weak. But...after drinking Dr. Pat's super incredible revitalizing formula he was a powerhouse of manliness in just two weeks. And you my friends can achieve the same success as my assistant for just 5 dollars. So, step right up and buy two bottles of my amazing elixer."

3. ROFL

:rolf: is more like mix kool-aid with Pat's Shake and see you brain press 2000 lb

[NoPasaran]

4. Yeah, but

Chuck Norris can make a woman climax by simply pointing at her and saying "booya".

[benburch]

5. The only thing I hope he is pushing up soon...

[Gato Moteado]

15. you and me both, man.....

....the only thing is that i figure his rotting corpse would so pollute the earth around it that even the weeds would die. probably the only thing that would grow on his gravesite would be toadstools.

[Blue_Tires]

23. +1

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

6. Yeah. 2000 lbs of $$$$ he's fleeced from his flock.

[bunkerbuster1]

7. "leg press." what a candy-ass "lift"

Real men put a fuckin' bar on their back and squat.

Bet that wussy boy Robertson hasn't seen big wheels on the bar for decades.

[BringEmOn]

8. 2000 British pounds?

[Rex]

9. Of course he can! Demons are very strong, yet deceptive.

Don't be fooled by that crotchety look of his. A true Fiend of the Pit.

[ClintonTyree]

10. Bullshit.

That's all...........bullshit! I challenge the leader of the Talibornagains to fetes of strength. And then..........the airing of grievances! :rofl:

[burythehatchet]

11. I, too, can leg press 2,000 pounds

20 pounds 100 times.

Once I even did 4,000. Beat that, Pat, then kiss my ass.

[Ksec]

12. And in this corner..world record holder..really neat guy..Pat ROOOObertsan

What a crock. He couldnt lift his fat ass away from the dinner table.

[two gun sid]

13. I wonder what kind of 'protein' is in that shake he drinks.

That duck-fucker can't leg press no 2000 lbs. That's so much fuckin' bullshit.

[TheCowsCameHome]

14. Probably straight from that fat cow Jerry Falwell......

[Gato Moteado]

16. the thought of that kind of protein shake.....

...is enough to make one hurl.

[MrBenchley]

17. This reminds me of the Chinese claiming Chairman Mao swam the Yangtse

although he was near death....

[havocmom]

18. Anybody catch Olbermann's take on this crap?

Said the professional weight machines don't go that heavy... :evilgrin:

Can Robertson be busted for false advertising?

[ck4829]

19. The power of the Dark Side is strong with Pat Robertson

:shrug:

[ComerPerro]

21. He also claims he can talk to God and Jesus

[NYC Liberal]

22. "traveling the globe as a statesman" He might travel, but he ain't no

statesman!

[HughBeaumont]

24. Uh, can I just say that's a big damn pile of crapola?

That's what pro and college linemen can do.



I dunno, my vision ain't what it used to be, but I don't think that's Warren Sapp next to Badly-in-need-of-a-steak-and-a-spine Colmes there.

[jmowreader]

25. Does he golf?

I have the perfect partner for him: North Korea's own tinhorn dictator Kim, Jong Il!

The Dear Leader, as he is known to his adoring people (everyone else knows him as a commie bastard), golfed at 38 the first time he ever had a club in his hands. He even shot seven holes-in-one in his debut round, a feat not even America's finest golfer, Tiger Woods, has managed to match.

Pair Kim, Jong Il, the greatest golfer alive, with Pat Robertson, the greatest weightlifter alive, and you got one hell of a tag-team combination.
