Bully Pulpit


I believe in freedom of speech… as long it doesn’t hurt innocent people. It seems that Pat Robertson has crossed that line, yet again. In another example of misusing his “bully pulpit”, Robertson has accused Muslims of planning world domination. The BBC has the story here.

This is the same “man of God” that called for the assassination of a duly elected head of state (Hugo Chavez) and claimed that Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was struck down by divine intervention for having withdrawn from Gaza. In each case he has apologized afterwards, but the man is clearly laboring under some seriously questionable delusions.

I think it is time to put ol’ Pat out to pasture.
