(2,949 posts)You know his heart is not in it, but he is the "chosen one", so there you go. He is willing to do whatever it takes to fulfill the White Horse Prophecy. It is disgusting beyond belief.
edit for punctuation.

(4,551 posts)Is he really so desperate for support that he needs an 80-something washed up religious-right winger who most people of today's generation don't agree with?
Pat Robertson is not a true Christian. True followers of Jesus practice tolerance, charity and care for the sick. Those are not the principles that the Christian right and the Republican Party practice.

He's in the front-row:

(19,458 posts)I was realizing that yesterday. The weird ad pulls and 'carpet bomb' of particular states. the push at the Christian college yesterday, in the most conservative County in Iowa, and the embracing of the worst things from Palin-days .
They have realized that the ONLY way Romney can win is to get the most white people possible. And that means to push hard on the racist stuff, the 'other' ness of the President. And to hit the evangelicals hard, to bring them on board.
The "break up with Obama" thing isn't going to work. They know now that their only hope is to energize the haters, and make him palatable to the evangelicals. This is WHY Chuck Norris did that crazy ass video... You can bet that the hard core christian churches are doing a lot of things with their people, that are not allowed by the IRS... Gary Bauer is running ads agains the President, Pat Robertson is given a place of honor, and Romney is pushing the inane busting into the Pledge of Allegiance at his rally.. to fire up that group.
But.. the excitement and giant crowds trying to see th President now, cannot be denied, tho the MSM is STILL trying to tell us that people aren't enthused about him anymore. It's a lie.

(1,277 posts)You don't appear with a certified loon unless you need to rally the base and by rallying the base you turn off a lot of people on the fence and fire up people on the other side. A bad sign for them.

(2,404 posts)I know there are people here who aren't religious, so I won't preach, but when I think of the Bible saying there will come a day when many will claim they prophesied in His name, He will say go away from me; I never knew you, Robertson comes to my mind. He is one of the biggest phonies to ever come down the pike.
He thinks Mormonism is a cult, but he will endorse Romney because ANYTHING'S better than a black Socialist in charge of America.
The Bible's warning to people, "Judge not; lest ye be judged."
Whatever is a sin in this life will be decided by God and God alone. Christians, TRUE Christians, do not hate, judge or lie.
Now, Robertson claims God has revealed to him who the next President will be. All I can say is if Robertson is God's chosen method of communication, the world is in BIG trouble.
