I make no apology in calling Pat Robertson a shameless old dickhead. Robertson would be a field man in Satan's army, if Satan was real. Pat Robertson, and others like him, are people that bring nations down. Sinclair Lewis once said that when fascism arrives in America, it will be wrapped in a flag and holding a cross.
These dangerous individuals need to be called out on their obnoxious, anti-progressive behavior. They are a greater threat to our country than radical Islam. Indeed, Christian conservatives are the radical Muslims of the west.
I have many reasons for labeling Pat Robertson a shameless asshole, douchebag, prick, etc.
For one, he is insensitive. This old, bigoted buffoon remorselessly stated that Americans deserved what they got on 9/11, and even said that we should expect worse. Here is the video. Watch that video carefully. You can almost detect the anticipation in Falwell's (the fat dickhead) voice when he says that 9/11 could be small compared to "what's to come". These idiots want terrorist attacks in our country, and are glad 9/11 happened. Make no mistake. They want terrorist attacks on our country. They never explicitly state it, but you can tell by Falwell's comments on more "punishment" that awaits us, because it would serve this country full of filthy fags and abortion doctors right!
He is simply out of touch with reality, as are many so-called "pro-lifers". A family that is barely able to feed itself means nothing to this old windbag, but fetuses are absolutely sacred! I'd love to see this guy raise a family on minimum wage, and then discover his wife is pregnant with another one. I wouldn't be surprised if he intimidated the woman into getting the pregnancy terminated, for reasons I will explain later. Doctors that would perform this procedure, to him, deserve some of the blame for 9/11.
He is clearly homophobic. You can hear the animosity in his voice when he mentions gays in that video to which I've linked. He says "gays", but the tone of his voice says, "filthy, degenerate beasts".
He is a shameless asshole, douchebag, prick, and many other things!
Robertson is bigoted, without question. He is a homophobic bigot, but also a sexist bigot. Pro-life men want to control women. It's that simple. They're not "protecting sacred life" or anything like that. Don't buy that line of bullshit for even a second. This man's greed, combined with his clear sentiment against women, is why I believe he would intimidate his wife (with no regard for her feelings) into having an abortion if he was raising a family on minimum wage. Many sexist pro-lifers are like this. Many of them would simply not care about their wives' feelings on their pregnancy if they themselves were trying to support a family with little income. They would probably want her aborted as soon as possible!
If men could get pregnant, abortion probably would not even be a legal issue.
This shameless old asshole, douchebag, and prick has animosity toward gays, women, and nonbelievers as well. This video demonstrates very well how fundamentalism destroys relationships. Listen to this dick when he tells a caller that she should break the engagement with her fiance, because he doesn't worship the ancient bronze age god of the desert. Again, you can detect the contempt in his voice when he discusses this slimy, nonbelieving animal.
This kind of backwards thinking is very dangerous for a country. It slows scientific and social progress. Much like radical Islam, which has served as an inhibitor of progress in the Middle East, it can serve as a progress inhibitor in the States. Yes, this is a serious issue. It has inhibited progress in America, and in some ways, still does. Look at the various state abortion laws, which endanger women's health (e.g. laws requiring parental consent for out of state abortions). Look at the legislation against gays in several states (*coughs* Prop 8). I spend much of the year in an area that is ill with this kind of counterproductive thought. Spend some time in the American Jesusland and you will see firsthand how dangerous this line of thought is. Some states allow pharmacists to patronize teenage girls requesting birth control (because letting them get pregnant with a child they can't care for is so much better). Have you ever seen something so demonstrably stupid in America that it makes you facepalm and say, "How can this happen? It's the 21st century!"? That is the work of people like Pat Robertson!
We have to ensure, through any means possible, to call people like Pat Robertson out on their bullshit. This will ensure their toxic rhetoric doesn't poison American policy (at least not to a severe degree). If we sit and let these snakes slither into the political system without resistance, we can suffer the same fate as countries like Iran and Saudi Arabia, with little regard for scientific achievement and no concern for social progress.
