My LTTE got
published this morning. YAY!
And how did Pat Robertson and Rush Limbaugh respond? Did either call for all of us to stand with Haiti? No. Robertson claimed the quake happened because of a deal made with the devil in the 18th century to gain Haiti's independence from France.
Limbaugh used the tragedy to launch a political attack against President Obama, and to complain he would use this to boost credibility with the "... light-skinned and dark-skinned black community in this country." Limbaugh went on to say that he meant what he said when later challenged about this, and he has encouraged people not to donate.
These two men represent the very worst of not only our nation, but humanity as well. Both of these men have repeatedly used tragedies to further their own ends and to attack those who don't think, look or believe as they do. It is disgusting and shameful to do so, but that hasn't stopped them from doing so again.
Of course if you look at the comments section, you've got our regular band of right wingers defending both Limpdick and Robertson.
