Pat Robertson To Endorse Giuliani

Washington Post:

Pat Robertson, one of the most influential figures in the social conservative movement, will announce his support for Rudy Giuliani's presidential bid this morning in Washington, D.C., according to sources familiar with the decision.

Robertson's support was coveted by several of the leading Republican candidates and provides Giuliani with a major boost as the former New York City mayor seeks to convince social conservatives that, despite his positions on abortion and gay rights, he is an acceptable choice as the GOP nominee.

I don't think we have anything to worry about. I think W has totally ruined the republican party and it will need to be totally rebuilt from the bottom up. Lincoln started the republican party and W destroyed it. My only shock is why so many congressman and senators insist on going down on the sinking ship with their Capt W. If they would just have the guts to throw him overboard and try to save themselves.

Wow! Like having the Marquis de Sade on the 700 Club. Two loony-tunes stroking each other (UGH!). Does this mean that Pat is officially condoning marrying your cousin? Doesn't much matter, his followers are so inbred that nobody would notice any how. Still, talk about strange bedfellows and a stomach-turning alliance.

So when will Pat tell us why this Christian Rudy endorses torturing fellow human beings

Kiss 'o death

Pat is ignoring

Luke 16:18
Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery. (So Says Jesus)

Lev 20:10
And the man that committeth adultery with [another] man's wife, [even he] that committeth adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

The good news:

Pat Robertson is going squarely against James Dobson on this issue.

Watch the christofascists eat each other. Bwahahahahahahahaha!!!!!

[Dap]

The "Kiss of Death"!

It was to be expected. After all, Jesus loves wars and profits. It helps to shore up his African mining operations. Silly Rabbii, hicks is for twits.

This is perfect. Two crazy criminals, making love in public.

Here's something that Rooti won't like:

but everyone should watch.

Robertson either got a lot of money, or Giuliani promised him a Supreme Court pick.

Now this is where the Christians in this country should be realizing that the 2 reasons they have been told that they should vote Republican are bullshit... especially to those who've been preaching it to them. All that talk of abortion and gay rights means nothing next to money and power to those people. And here it comes out openly into the light.

This is the moment in time when Democrats need to be saying LOUD and CLEAR that the difference between voting Republican and Democrat in this coming election is that Christians can either vote for war or peace, health, education, liberty, etc.

The Democrats have this one moment in time to pull in all of those Christians who've been being brainwashed by the right. It's loud and clear what the Republicans and the Religous Right leaders want... war and money and power. The millions of Christians just want what everyone else wants.

Sieze the day Democrats. Those who want to blow the trumpet about abortion and gay rights for the 2008 election need to shut the fuck up and take steps to get these voters. There's not going to actually be any changes with abortion or gay rights in the next year, so, let it go for now. Get them on your side so you can win the fight that really matters right now.

I am so dissappointed that the Democrats as a whole fell for the bullshit anti-abortion drumbeat from the right in the first place. You lost an entire quarter of the population that should be Democrats over one fucking issue.

And it's not like abortion is an ideal solution anyway. We should have challenged those people who are against abortion to support adoption and child support and education and preventing domestic abuse so that most of the abortions could be avoided.

These people aren't like their leaders. I was one of them. They just want a good life, just like everyone. Democrats could use this time to woo them over to the side they should be on in the first place.

Did pat really say - "All true Christians should Mary their cousins and live in fear like the cowards in the white house?"

Not long after Hurrican Katrina...
Pat Robertson on Sunday said that Hurricane Katrina was God’s way of expressing its anger at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for its selection of Ellen Degeneres to host this year’s Emmy Awards. ‘By choosing an avowed lesbian for this national event, these Hollywood elites have clearly invited God’s wrath,’ Robertson said on ‘The 700 Club’ on Sunday. ‘Is it any surprise that the Almighty chose to strike at Miss Degeneres’ hometown?’

Robertson also noted that the last time Degeneres hosted the Emmys, in 2001, the September 11 terrorism attacks took place shortly before the ceremony.

‘This is the second time in a row that God has invoked a disaster shortly before lesbian Ellen Degeneres hosted the Emmy Awards,’ Robertson explained to his approximately one million viewers. ‘America is waiting for her to apologize for the death and destruction that her sexual deviance has brought onto this great nation.’

Rudy, you can really be proud of this endorsement.
