How many times have you heard some prominent social conservative threaten that Christian voters would just stay home if Republicans didn't vote our way? It's a sign of political failure and stupidity, in my view. So I was encouraged to find that, for the first time I can recall, gay-marriage advocates are making similar threats against Democrats. In New Jersey, gay-marriage activists (lead by Garden...
When it was announced that Lou Dobbs was leaving CNN, I suspected as did numerous other bloggers, that Dobbs would be joining Fox News within a few days. Surprisingly, Dobbs has not made one noticeable effort to join Fox News over the past few weeks, however, the political rumor mill has been red hot in regards to the former CNN host. Discussions have been ongoing as to if Dobbs will seek the United...
The Christian Broadcasting Network* In late August, 1976—4 weeks earlier, Tangshan, China had been struck by an earthquake registering between 7.8 and 8.2 and killing between 240,000 and 255,000—I drove from San Jose, California to the offices of the Christian Broadcasting Network in Portsmouth, Virginia: http://www.cbn.com/ for the purpose of explaining to them, for free , some of the...
As part of my morning routine here at Americans United, I tune into both Pat Robertson’s 700 Club and James Dobson’s Focus on the Family radio broadcast whenever the church-state debate takes center stage with the mainstream media. With Stupak, the Catholic bishops’ health-care amendment, moving in Congress, we figured Religious Right leaders would be using [...]
Diana West: Political Islam is bent on world domination | Washington Examiner You might have missed it, but the Islamic Apology Police were on the case of the Republican governor-elect of Virginia, Robert F. McDonnell this week. It seems that following the jihadist attack on Fort Hood, the Rev. Pat Robertson, a longtime ally of McDonnell's, criticized Islam on his television show. And no one in these...
[HT: DG ] Subject: txt islm - You might have missed it, but the Islamic Apology Police were on the case of the Republican governor-elect of Virginia, Robert F. McDonnell this week. It seems that following the jihadist attack on Fort Hood, the Rev. Pat Robertson, a longtime ally of McDonnell's, criticized Islam on his television show. And no one in these not- just- politically- but- also- Islamically-...
Pat Robertson On Ft. Hood: Islam Is ‘Not A Religion’ and Muslims Should Be Treated Like ‘Some Fascist Group.’ By Matt Corley On Nov 10th, 2009 at 9:59 am Courtesy Of Think Progress This past weekend, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano warned against allowing “ anti-Muslim sentiment ” to emanate from the shooting at Fort Hood by Major Nidal Malik Hasan....
I asked Ralph Reed, who, thinking she's probably not going to run for president in 2012, says: "Unless she runs, not much." Reed doesn't doubt that Sarah Palin may consider running for president of the United States, but recommends a little space between 2008 and when she does. He adds: "My sense is that she is going to be a major force in the party---and a force for good, by the way...."...
Yesterday's part 1 of a two part interview conducted by MinnPost's token conservative, Michael Bonfield produced a predictable hail of spittle from the left leaning sites scary smart reality based readership. If the 77 comments didn't set a record, surely it's not far off. Today's part 2 started off briskly, but with their saliva glands evidently dried out, raging leftists turned from yesterday's hockerfest...
Say it ain't so! 11th District Congressman Gerry Connolly has called on Pat Robertson to apologize for his statement on his “700 Club” TV show that Islam is “not a religion” but a “violent political system.” In a statement issued Wednesday, Connolly said Robertson caused substantial hurt and damage for the Muslim community in Northern Virginia and across the Commonwealth...

Pat was right. 33000 times it says kill non-muslims and Jews and Christians are apes and Pigs. Dr. King was a Christian, and that made his a dead pig....
CEDAR CREEK, Texas (CNN) – Virginia Gov.-elect Bob McDonnell on Wednesday declined to weigh in on Christian broadcaster Pat Robertson’s recent claim that Islam is not a religion, but “a violent political system.” McDonnell, though, stressed that he reached out to Muslims and visited mosques in Virginia throughout the governor’s race and will continue to do [...]
Pat Robertson has declared that Islam is not a religion but a “violent political system.” For many, such statements are nothing new from Robertson. However, it was a bit more surprising yesterday to learn that Virginia Governor Elect Bob McDonnell has refused to disavow that view. McDonnell was opposed during the recent [...]
Background on the "joke" here. Attackerman nails the response: If this were a different religion, the individuals responsible would the subject of massive government surveillance and possible prosecution. The Qu’ran would be cited as a blueprint for murder, as Pat Robertson implied earlier this month. Instead, this will be treated as a harmless joke. You can't have it both ways. Either...
– posted by thehim In part one of this series (don’t worry, this is the last part), I looked through a recently unearthed copy of the Seattle Times front page section from March 9, 1988. It was the Wednesday after Super Tuesday, where Washington’s Republican caucus-goers gave the nod to Pat Robertson (!) while Democratic [...]
I can’t say I’m a fan of the 700 Club or Pat Robertson. I do like David Brody who is CBN’s political correspondent and do read his blog often. He had a chance to interview Governor Sarah Palin when she was in Grand Rapids, MI yesterday, and Part [...]
