Yawn, Pat Robertson again blames the Jews’ penny-pinching for Hilter deciding to execute them all. ….
Er, Pat Robertson blames bathhouses and gay buttsex for the murder of Our Lord Jesus? …
Damn, what was that story again? …
Oh yeah! Pat Robertson blames the “pact with the devil” that Haitians made years ago for the earthquake that has now killed hundreds of thousands of innocent people on the island.

Update 2: Thank goodness for Shep Smith:
It’s so hard to remember all the various reasons why god smites homos, negroes and poor people with floods, pestilence and pig AIDS!
Stay classy, you big man of god you…
Update: I think Jim Newell has the right idea:
Time to send in Rick Warren’s missionaries, to give all of the survivors AIDS.

SMITH: The people of Haiti have been used and abused by their government over the years. They have dealt with unthinkable tragedy day in and day out. And we’re in the middle of a crisis the Western Hemisphere has not seen in my lifetime, and 700 miles east of Miami, hundreds of thousands of desperate human beings need our help, our support, our money, and our love. And they don’t need that.

Politico parodies itself (via): The Senate, once the chamber of deliberation and reason, is getting its own extreme makeover. Moderates such as Maine Republican Olympia Snowe and Democrat Ben Nelson are bolting an institution that barely resembles the one they entered as idealistic deal makers. Ben Nelson? Idealistic dealmaker? These are words that should not be in the ... (1 comments)Despicable Quote of the Day - Icky Gay Sexytime Is A Threat To National Security

sad thing is, I saw some people predicting this exact thing last night on twitter. he proved them right.
just such a predictable demagogue
If Pat Robinson was a Christian he would be mobilizing his group for the rescue of these people, sending teams in to the area to help rebuild their lives, and giving witness to the Lord by his actions. Instead he is showing his true colors by being a hateful servant of the Devil by taking the Lords name in vain with his statement about how God hates.
Fuck you Pat Robertson, two of my friends died in Haiti.
(too soon?)
Oh wow, so sorry to hear that
It's one of those digger memes
oh, never saw that
What a dumb fuck!
Pat and FOX "news" increasingly sound like the same channel….
FWIW, CBN's statement:
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., January 13, 2010 — On today’s The 700 Club, during a segment about the devastation, suffering and humanitarian effort that is needed in Haiti, Dr. Robertson also spoke about Haiti’s history. His comments were based on the widely-discussed 1791 slave rebellion led by Boukman Dutty at Bois Caiman, where the slaves allegedly made a famous pact with the devil in exchange for victory over the French. This history, combined with the horrible state of the country, has led countless scholars and religious figures over the centuries to believe the country is cursed. Dr. Robertson never stated that the earthquake was God’s wrath. If you watch the entire video segment, Dr. Robertson’s compassion for the people of Haiti is clear. He called for prayer for them. His humanitarian arm has been working to help thousands of people in Haiti over the last year, and they are currently launching a major relief and recovery effort to help the victims of this disaster. They have sent a shipment of millions of dollars worth of medications that is now in Haiti, and their disaster team leaders are expected to arrive tomorrow and begin operations to ease the suffering.

In other words you are saying that the Fox News program has miss quoted Dr Robertson? That they have cut and edited his report and words? Or did he appear later on you program and made a different statement.
