I know that God didn’t make no junk, but he kind of made some junk. What is wrong with this guy? For someone who claims to know so much about hell, he is not being very careful in terms of trying not to get sent there. Or am I wrong about hell. Isn’t that where terrible, hateful, dangerous assholes who dedicate their lives to evil go? Meanwhile:
In a statement on its Web site, the Christian Broadcasting Network said Robertson was speaking objectively about Haiti’s history that has led “countless scholars and religious figures over the centuries to believe the country is cursed.
I’m sure he was just being very objective. He’s basically a historian. When you think of Pat Robertson, the first thing you think of is Objective Historian, and everything else (hatemonger, nightmare) comes after. Although, I’m pretty sure the number of scholars and religious figures who believe that Haiti is cursed is far from “countless.” I feel like the number of scholars and religious figures who believe that Haiti, a “country” whose geopolitical borders are a man-made invention little more than 200 years old is CURSED by THE DEVIL is very, very countable. Probably on fewer than two hands.
Pat Robertson is garbage.

I am way too afraid to read the YouTube comments on this one.
sample: “he speaks the truth. his beliefs are bible based. I would shame him if I were you. Your the fool. And anyone else who doesn’t believe that evil exists? but also in a supernatural sense. Wake the hell up!”
actually, a lot of the comments are hating on PRob
“Never have I ever wanted to kick the shit out of an old man , until I saw this? video.”
“what, he isn’t blaming the gays? i can’t wait till this barking mad dog is having a? face to face with Jesus. please, God, make it soon.”
“crazy old? fossil”
i will not be sad when he dies. that’s what human garbage does. makes you lose a little of your humanity. humiliation, pat robertson.
January 14 and the Worst of the Worst Persons of 2010 is already a lock. Congrats, Pat “The Worst” Robertson!!!
Oh ye of so much faith in humanity.
Fat Turd-erson.
Amirite? Anyone? Anyone out there?
And I realized that I misspelled his name, but I don’t respect him enough to correct it.
ugh, every time something bad happens anywhere, pat robertson swoops in to make fucking horrible comments. 9/11? cuz of the gays. katrina? cuz of the abortions and the gays. massive earthquake in haiti? cuz god was on the side of colonialist slave holders.
in other news, when this man dies, he goes on my list of graves i shall pee on.
Pour one out for the (non)homies
I say we give it right back to him, tit for tat:
I hope you will fall under a speeding chariot, thou love-child of Methuselah!
Join in with the Biblical Curse Generator.
Woe unto thee, O thou offspring of a squashed cockroach, for you will be trampled by a herd of stampeding pigs!
Take that, Pat Robertson! You asshole.
Forget the Devil, blame the French!
I hate Pat Robertson. He is one of the Great Assholes of History. His greed and corruption and hatefulness are legendary. He may die, but he is breeding a son and a grandson to follow in his doo-doo footsteps. I reserve my true hate for a very special few people, and he is one of them.
when i was in college, one of my classes on foreign policy actually made me read one of his essays on non-interventionism and why the united nations should be abolished. and the entire time i’m sitting there thinking, well, if the most credible person they have to argue these points is pat fucking robertson…. the man is basically no different than ahmadinejad, meaning he’s just an empty ideologue who hates and fears the others and wants to create a religious state, and it’s not like i had to sit there in fucking COLLEGE and read that man’s essays as if they were somehow intelligent and relevant. ugh. i’m still pissed about that.
Gross. You have my sympathy. I grew up 15 minutes from CBN and Regent University. Socially conscious Virginians are split into two factions: The eastern half hates Pat Robertson and the western half hates Jerry Falwell (even post-mortem). It’s one of the primary reasons I moved away after college, where I was fortunate enough to not have to read any of his essays. He’s just a bad, bad, backwards man.
No worries, his cursed son and grandson made a pact with the devil. To kick out the French – Napoleon the 3rd, er whatever. True story.
I will pray for him.
It’s not enough to just pray for him. You also have to send as much money as you can to the 700 Club, so you can have their whole organization praying with you and then maybe, just maybe, God will listen to you. Though even then you may get ignored, in which case you should send more money and try again.
Is there any feasable way to hold him accountable for what he says? I know he has said dumb things and nothing has happened to him. He probably actually gets more contributions from his followers whenever he gets attention in the mainstream. But is there anything we can actually do?
Well his argument makes a lot of sense. I mean magic and dark magic are real-so I don’t know why anyone is taking issue with what he’s saying. the proof is in the science, the science that proves without a reasonable doubt that magic exists.
Hmmm. Now, I am no biblical scholar, mind you. But I could have sworn there was some saying about judging not, lest one be judged. Or maybe something about not casting stones…
huh. It’s escaped me! It’s probably just from a Hallmark card, anyway.
I can’t even be outraged anymore. When I heard about Robertson being Robertson yesterday, I just was impressed by how fast the turnaround was.
assholegum
At least we can all agree that this guy is way worse than Danny Boyle.
At first I thought this said “Robert Pattison”, and I was about to get SUPER defensive, but now I just feel like an idiot.
I thought the same thing! I was like hold up, why was someone interviewing Robert Pattinson about what happened in Haiti? It would only make sense if the earthquake was caused by a vampire vs. werewolf war. Or a herd of teenage girls stampeding to get his autograph.
I read it as RPatz, too! Twilight has infiltrated my subconscious! AAAAHHHHHH! GET IT OUT! GET IT OUT! GET IT OUUUTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!
So, let me get this stright. Haiti makes a deal with the devil, and gets an earthquake. Jay Leno makes a deal with the devil, and gets the Tonight Show back. Theology is confusing.
“straight,” that is. I’ve been all typogum lately.
Pat Robertson makes a deal with the devil and is able to leg-press 1000 POUNDS.
I’ve always appreciated his grade five grasp of theodicy. “Earthquake? Ooooh, you done something bad!”
You said the word of the day!!!!
Theodicy. Congrats.
Yessss!
It’s such a primitive way of thinking. “X happened because Haitians did Y.” You know what, Pat Robertson?? Sometimes shit just happens. Like my poop on your future tombstone.
“countless scholars and religious figures”
I think he meant ASS SCHOLARS, right people?
This deserves one big
Robertson is campaigning to be the lead creative for the new KFC ad campaign.
Come on, guys. Clearly “Napoleon III or Whatever” is the real asshole here.
How dare you, sir. How. Dare. You.
If you’re looking for some sort of sane and generous perspective on Haiti, check out Mountains Beyond Mountains by Tracy Kidder. Then check out PIH (Partners in Health.) Haiti doesn’t need any more crap shoveled on it than it already has- Pat keep your terrible mouth shut.
“True story.” Obvs. My favorite part was when the Devil said, “OK! It’s a deal!” My second favorite part was when Patsykins really nailed his credibility by identifying the last colonial ruler of Haiti as”Napoleon the Third, or whatever.” (Psst. PAT! Haitian Independence was achieved prior to Napoleon III being born… True story.)
Pat Robertson reeks of cottage cheese.
True story.
Wow, according to wikipedia:
Of course, Robertson refuses to admit that he made a “pact with the devil” in order to make those comments. Then again, he is a racist.

There’s a reason it’s my first and only reference on everything.
Here’s Olbermann’s succinct response, nicely summing up how most of us feel:

Wow, talk about Operation: Watch This. It’s nice to see sanity after the hate vomit.
WOW! Keith remembered to eat his Wheaties for breakfast! That was among the Zingiest Zings that ever Zinged.
So my first reaction to this was “Say it ain’t so Edward!” but then I realized that you said Pat Robertson and not Rob Pattinson. Whoopsies! Apparently MLIT. Ugh…
I hate Pat Robertson almost as much as I hate Robert Pattinson!
Ugh. Jay Reatard dies yesterday at 29 and this douchenozzle’s evil, evil heart is still beating. The world ain’t right.
Indeed
And here I thought earthquakes were caused by the shifting of tectonic plates, not supposed pacts with satan. My bad.
also, STFU you old hateful mummy!
But where are those tectonic plates if not in HELL?
“true story”
True story? Oh right! True story.
What is sad is how much power this guy has…700 Club will be on TV forever.
The 700 Club is taking over the Tonight Show.
Take heed, O thou relative of Pat Robertson, for you will become as popular as a boil on the king’s backside!
Rush said the whole aid for Haiti is just a way to appeal to (“both the light skinned and dark skinned) black voters and told everyone not to donate to Haiti. I’m not sure who is worse, but I think I hate them equally!
Here’s the audio on youtube of that asshole if you really want to piss yourself off:

Do anyone else ever think that what Pat Robertson needs is more Alzheimer’s? I feel like right now he’s half Alzheimer’s*. Perhaps if he couldn’t finish a sentence or legally drive** the whole ‘reduced to absurdity’ thing might happen.
* Tropic Thunder really gets the wheels turning
** Can Pat Robertson drive?
I once tried to get in the 700 Club, but they said “Sorry, you’re 701; you just missed the cutoff.” True story.
Hey he does say crazy stuff very crazy stuff i thinks its because he is getting too old
