Let us prey! Is Robertson a religious stalker? Wasn't he a WWII war hero?

did you see ridgeway at the villiage voice? rightwing loons are now trying to tie eric rudolph to al qaida.

He was NOT a WWII hero. He was an Army Officer who was levied with his entire unit to Korea after the North Koreans attacked South Korea. I forget whether he was in the National Guard or Reserve.

His father was a US Senator, and pulled strings to get him offloaded when the troop ship stopped in Japan for staging before final transshipment to Korea. He spent his overseas service in Japan as an Officer's Club custodian. What he basically did was order booze and set up indigenous "dates" for general officers and "visiting firemen."

All of this is public record and can be easily googled.

The guy give Christians a bad name.

In fact, he gives Homo sapiens a bad name.

Did Pat Robertson have a brain before the surgery?

I know he has no soul, but I thought the brain was already lost.

Lurch,
Thanks for refreshing my recollection. As I recall there was a little more to the story when someone who served with or knew him and later became politically active mentioned that Pat had been the recipient of political favoratism in his military assignment. Pat threatened to (or perhaps did?) sue and the charge was withdrawn as it may have been based upon hearsay: what someone told this person he had learned from Pat. I forget the politician's name. Was it Mc(something)? In any event, let's start a counter pray-in, as I seriously doubt that Pat's prayers will get priority over ours.

Let's pray that Pat comes to his senses, finally.

the Representative who called robertson on his
minimal military service and his dad pulling strings to keep him out of a combat zone was Paul McCloskey, a fairly moderate Republican.
Robertson is the chickenhawk hypocrite who avoided combat, who's wife was a few months preggers when he married her(he preaches against pre-marital sex), and a couple years back went into business with Charles Taylor, the Liberian president and human butcher. he went so far as to hammer Bush for trying to get the born-again Taylor to leave Liberia.
Robertson is a souless immoral cretin, yet has a loyal daily audience of around a million viewers. A constant theme over the years and especially of late is the moral decay of America....Robertson is part of the problem, not the solution.

Ned,
You also refreshed my recollection although it was not very refreshing re-reading about Pat's personal lucky streak that seems to continue to this day. Just maybe his prayers do get priority. We will just have to counter-pray harder - for a bigger Wall of Separation.
