Welcome to IWETHEY!

New I assume there's no need to 'Run!'?
Living in the UK, I have to assume this Pat Robertson does not hold office and is merely some voiciferous, religious nutter. And people watch him because it's like watching a train crash. I assume there is no need to 'Run! Get out while you can!'?
Matthew Greet


But we must kill them. We must incinerate them. Pig after pig, cow after cow, village after village, army after army. And they call me an assassin. What do you call it when the assassins accuse the assassin? They lie. They lie and we must be merciful to those who lie.
- Colonol Kurtz, Apocalypse Now.

New He tried
He ran for president once, but that was before the religious types had totally infiltrated the Republican party and he didn't know how to play the press game or how to deal with corporate lobbyists. So didn't end up doing very well directly, but he did get the Republicans to give in to the right wing Christians a lot more and thus indirectly did a lot of damage.

In any case he is not just any run of the mill religious nut job. He runs the CBN, Christian Broadcasting Network, which is best known for the 700 Club and broadcasts right wing Christian material around the globe. He also made a personal fortune in various shady dealings.
