Pat Robertson - Still a douchebag after all these years

Yeah, old Pat is moaning about no prayer but could give a shit that the first responders are not invited. Fuck you Pat, you no class asshole.

1. God could prove his(?) existence beyond all doubt
by turning Pat Robertson into a smoking piece of pork rind with a lightning bolt.

3. 1998: PR says Orlando shouldn't celebrate Pride and then VA got smacked w/a hurricane
But if Robertson’s track record as a divine weathercaster holds true, Oregonians may have less to fear than do the citizens in the Tidewater Virginia area that is headquarters to Robertson’s rightwing political and religious enclave. In 1998, Robertson predicted all sorts of disasters would smite central Florida:

After Orlando … city officials voted in 1998 to fly rainbow flags from city lampposts during the annual Gay Days event at Disney World, Robertson issued the city a warning: “I don’t think I’d be waving those flags in God’s face if I were you. … condition like this will bring about the destruction of your nation. It’ll bring about terrorist bombs, it’ll bring earthquakes, tornadoes and possibly a meteor.”

Instead, God smote Robertson by hurling Hurricane Bonnie directly at Virginia Beach that August:

Overnight, Bonnie drifted out into the Atlantic southeast of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina … Rough surf pounded the Atlantic coastline as far north as New England, while 12- to 15-foot swells were reported along the Virginia coast. Winds as high as 90 mph snapped ship mooring ropes and left hundreds of thousands of people without electricity on Friday in the Virginia Beach-Norfolk area.

4. A douchebag can serve a useful purpose,
as I understand it. Robertson continues to fill a much needed void.

5. Special place in hell for Pat Robertson
I'll always curse him for his broad brushing of Northridge earthquake victims as deserving of it, because you know of course EVERYONE living in the San Fernando Valley was a pornographer...

I have also debated finding out where they finally plant his behind after he dies, and doing a very UN-ladylike thing on his grave....:grr:

8. It should be easy to spot his grave
something with a dance-floor/urinal motif I should think.

6. No surprises there
It would be a surprise for Pat Robertson to not take an opportunity to be a publicity-seeking douchebag by any means necessary.
