What has Pat been smoking?

First he wants the U.S. to assassinate people. Now Pat Robertson is warning the denizens of Dover, Pennsylvania that they might soon face the wrath of God for voting out school board members who were proponents of intelligent design.

"I'd like to say to the good citizens of Dover: if there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God, you just rejected Him from your city," Robertson said on his daily television show broadcast from Virginia, "The 700 Club."

"And don't wonder why He hasn't helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I'm not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that's the case, don't ask for His help because he might not be there," he said.

These are not the words of a rational, logical individual. Perhaps Mr. Robertson could use the diagnostic skills of House, M.D. and his team.

Just a thought.

Pat's starting to talk like someone who's willing to encourage people to make that "prophecy" self-fulfilling... And that's scary. I wonder why even they hardest right-wing Fundies still stick with him?

The answer to that is obvious.

Because he might smite them.
