Pat Robertson's dementia flares up again


Link
Well, you would think that after the subject of recent ridicule over praying for a Supreme Court justice to die so that President Bush could appoint a more conservative justice for the lifetime appointment, that he would have learned to be quiet with his loose lips. But no, yesterday he called for the assassination of President Chavez of Venezuela. It seems that the first signs of dementia are showing in the area of his religious beliefs, as he seems to have forgotten one of the commandments he endorsed when he took on the mantle of the clergy, that being: THOU SHALT NOT KILL!

Now I can forgive someone who is mentally ill, as we all should. But not to hear condemnation from the right wing of the Republican party and this Administration for his remarks, I fell no empathy for the lot of them. It is a disgrace. Here we are trying to fight terrorism and radical Islam clerics and we have a radical fundamental cleric right here in good ole USA and no real outrage is evident. There's almost a silent approval of his comments from this Administration and this President. We banned assassination of world leaders as we saw it was not in keeping with a civilized society back when Reagan was President. It seems we are not so civilized after all. Those on the right and his followers should pray for Pat Robertson and his mental illness. I know I will.
