[swag]

1. And who can blame him?

How will he make his riches if the old people he dupes out of their money in the name of "God" don't get their SS checks? That's pretty much his bread and butter, right there.

[BillyRibs]

15. YES

Self interest!

[gordianot]

2. You know you are in trouble when the demonic possessions guy thinks you are crazy.

Unreal

[Snake Plissken]

4. When Pat Robertson thinks you're crazy, there's nowhere left to go.

You've basically hit rock bottom. I don't even think Scientology would take you

[Downtown Hound]

3. When you've gotten too crazy for Pat Robertson

It's time for a serious reevaluation of the entire situation.

5. Michelle Bachman must apoplectic right now.

When Robertson turns against the right you know they're in trouble.

[Pretzel_Warrior]

6. notice his rationale. Every human being would suffer economically under a default

and Republicans can't be tarred with that. So...it's not just enough that it would be morally wrong but there might be a political cost to being morally wrong and we can't have that!

Fuckstick.

[Plucketeer]

7. WWJD?

You demented old swindler.

[Sky Masterson]

8. That might be the most intelligent thing I've ever heard from him

And that is saying a lot.

[Douglas Carpenter]

9. It is scary to think that the Republican Party is now so extreme and so out-of-step with America

that even Pat Robertson is relatively a voice of reason

[bonniebgood]

10. But But why is he asking the repukes to end the shutdown, shouldn't he be

asking Obama and Reid? sarcasm!!!!!!!!!! !.

11. How many Treasury bills are in his portfolio?

Go ahead. Call me cynical.

[packman]

12. Exactly

Old Pat is worried that if Grandmaw and Grandpaw's Social Security checks are stopped, they may not be sending him money . If it has any impact on "donations" , Pat is against it regardless of party.

[yuiyoshida]

13. This has to be the FIRST thing he has said in Years...

That I agree with.

14. This is going to be a great ad for the mid-term elections - Thanks Pat

At least for those crazy districts that are so mad that they'll put even MORE crazy people in place and really undermine the House's GOP majority - big time.
