Maybe he was just messing with you for giggles, Pat.

Your mistake was in thinking that God would give a cold pile of rat crap about the US election in the first place…

Perhaps Pat should consult his beloved Bible on what the punishment was for falsely speaking for God.
Deuteronomy 18:20: “But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded him to say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, must be put to death.”

Is this the same God who told him that 9/11 was punishment for homosexuals and abortionists?

The imaginary voices you hear inside your head are you. When imaginary voices seem like they’re coming from outside your head it’s schizophrenia.
I wonder where Pat thought he heard the voice?

@Geek, Esq.:
That was actually Jerry Falwell, who told the 700 Club that pagans, abortionists, feminists, gays, and lesbians (in that order) caused 9/11 to happen.

@CSK: I would have thought abortionists would outrank pagans; and gays and lesbians have to be way more evil than feminists. I guess I don’t understand the natural order of things as well as Pat does. If it’s schitzophrenia, would proper grammar be “as the Pats do”?

God told Pat that the un-Christian cultist would lose. Pat just forgot that meant “Mormon.”

@gVOR08:
Well, if you analyze the statement according to what I’m assuming are Falwell’s beliefs, pagans would naturally rise to the top of the list, because they don’t worship the Judeo-Christian God, whereas the rest might actually be believers. Evil, misguided ones, but believers nonetheless. So they MIGHT be redeemable. And if his list is in descending order, then lesbians are the least culpable of the bunch.

I saw a really funny exchange about Mittens at Taegan Goddard’s yesterday:
Ist commenter: Karma
2nd commenter: …ran over his dogma.
3rd commenter: I thought the dogma was on top of the karma.

As in Israel…we need to seperate religion and politics.
Robertson…like Hannity, Drudge, Limburger, McCain, Romney, and the rest need to be marginalized. Until then nothing will change.
The fact that Robertson claims to hear voices should be enough to have him commuted.
The fact that a major political party believes what he says should impeach that political party.
Seriously…Dick Morris makes Pat Robertson look sane.

What’s amazing about Robertson is that 25 years ago he was almost exactly at the same level of nutter. How is that even physiologically and psychologically possible? He’s like a programed robot of nuttiness.

Speaking of God speaking, this is a good moment to recall that God sent two hurricanes to help Obama. Both Isaac and Sandy “guided Obama into re-election! The timing of both shows they greatly aided Obama … God did not want Romney as president. This is exceedingly clear … Look what God has done with Obama to get him re-elected.” Link.
