The phony old coot slurred this gem over the airwaves:
PAT ROBERTSON: The noose has tightened around the necks of Christians to keep them from speaking out on certain moral issues.
Yeah - sure Pat. Because God fucking knows that if there's one group of people in this country that have perennially suffered the burden of oppression and social marginalization it's mainstream Christians. (rolls eyes and shakes head in disbelief)
Perhaps if more "good Christians" like Pat Robertson actually practiced the core teachings that Jesus taught, there'd be no need to pass laws such as this. But then again, I'm convinced that if these right-wing Christians actually ever bothered to learn Christ's core philosophy, they'd brand him a socialist, commie-pinko, hippie, bleeding-heart liberal and probably decide to re-write the bible themselves to remove all of the compassionate, humane, progressive teachings that Jesus advocated. Oh wait -- that's right! They're already doing that!
How did such a great country as America end up with deceitful, fraudulent losers like this asshole Robertson and his ilk viewed as community "leaders" and "voices of the people?" What went so horribly wrong?
Depressing.
