No 12-step program effective against Pat Robertson
I found this on Google news, and thought it was too good not to share:

(snip)
Inside an open meeting of Snotty Humor Columnists Anonymous . . .

ME: “My name is Chris, and I’m addicted to hypocrites. My drug of choice is politicians, but lately I’ve been binging on televangelists and talk radio. It started out innocently enough — a little Falwell before breakfast, a little Limbaugh after work, maybe some cable ‘news’ on weekends. But now I’m hitting the hard stuff — Coulter, Hannity, O’Reilly. I’m really afraid of where this is headed.”

COUNSELOR: “You sound like you’re on a Pat Robertson bender.”

ME: “How can you tell?”

COUNSELOR: “He’s why many of us eventually seek help. For snotty humor columnists, hypocrites are like candy. Pat is the Double-Chocolate, Deep-Fried Oreo of hypocrites. Thousands of case studies have shown it’s almost impossible to resist the motherlode of empty calories he offers a columnist looking for an easy target on deadline.”
