The Pat Robertson wing of the Republican Party
You know how Faux news always uses the term 'Michael Moore' wing of the Democratic party when discussing ANY opposition to W and his policies.

Well, I say that Pat Robertson IS THE FACE of the current Republican party.

3. Robertson & Falwell
are the ones who moved the Christians to the Republican party. It took many years to take the Christ out of Christians, but they did it. The Democrats will only succeed when they can prove to these people that they are the real Christians. But the Democrats will have leave the lobbyists and big money by the wayside. I don't think they can do that.

4. I think these are the new, permanent Republicans
Democrats should not try to appease the efungelical zealots...unless of course, they start wanting to be associated with illegal coups too. Democrats can win without this brand of nutcase.

5. Robertson is a mainstream republican.
And every republican voter is a vital supporter of Robertson, Falwell, Dobson and all the others of their vile ilk. In fact, the republican voters who not agree with the republican taliban are its most vital supporters. If all of those voters refused to support Robertson and the others by refusing to vote republican, how much power and influence over the federal government would those sick fucks have? I always tell republican family and friends that they are the most vital supporters Pat Robertson has.

6. Let them be. The more they are out there making fools of humans and
the more ungodly the things they say, the people will finally stop revering the reverends. But we should go full speed ahead on getting their tax exempt status revoked.

They are not supposed to be politicizing.

Mr Purple Purse, Mr Gold Bar - you are all in the same hypocritical boat and we have a spyglass on you.

Keep it up - make a case for the lawyers.

8. They are the wing in control of the GOP
Robertson merely advocates what Bushco has already tried.
