Pat Robertson. Can someone help me understand this?
This is the guy who was told by God that this election would be a Bush Blowout. Now, he sounds like he's joined the Kerry campaign.

Could his story about the casualties and Bush's certainty have an affect on his follower's support for Bush?

Why did he say that anyway?

I don't get it.

1. He his still voting for Bush...
from my understanding. I guess he just let that tidbit slip in the interview. But I didn't see it, so what do I know?

2. Pat Robertson's two main goals in life...
...are promotion of Pat Robertson, and fund-raising.

Start from there, and you'll get where you want to go.

3. You know how some people say God speaks through them? Well,
here's an example! And since these guys don't seem to listen to any Holy Words, he probably doesn't even know he said it.

4. He Shines Every October
It was about this time last year when Mr. Robertson suggested that it would be a good idea for a nuclear explosion to wipe out the U.S. State Department.

5. Welcome to DU, Tony_Illinois
Robertson is a scummy con man. He's a whack-o.

7. Pat Robertson is a loose cannon among RW Fundies
It does not surprise that he can be a liability for the Chimp. I remember his lame run for president back in 88. Isnt he also an investor in blood diamonds ?
