Pat Robertson: "Foley does what gay people do"
“Republicans have formed a circular firing squad and they’re firing away” said Robertson. He called the internal furor in the GOP “insane” and added that the best thing they could do would be to say “well, this man’s gay; he does what gay people do and so don’t worry about it.” Robertson also claimed that the scandal would not cost Republicans votes because “the church people understand forgiveness, they understand sin.”

12. If the experts Randi defers too are correct
Gays ARE NOT attracted to young boys or girls. Statistics show that heterosexual males account for 99% of underage girls and 98% of boys sex cases.

Foley is a pederast: an adult male with an attraction to underage males.

16. You are Correct
My statement was a synical rebuttal to his absurd attack on homosexuals. I know of the study you refer to. Yet they will ignore facts.... liars are devoid of reality.

2. did the church people understand Clinton?
Did they understand forgiveness there, or sin?
GRASPING at Straws... Desperation emanates from everything they say now.
I am enjoying this...
Keep on making excuses assholes.

3. That means gay people do what Foley did.
So Foley must be gay; it's their own 'logic'.

Robertson also blamed gays on 9/11. Does this mean he's exempting Foley?

If he can forgive Foley, why not gays - especially the ones who don't go after children (which is most of them!)

8. foley does what CHRISTIANS do, Mr. Robertson...
if you are going to use an identifier for foley, why not use that he is a christian? or a republican? or a conservative?

and church people understand hate because it and fear are the foundations of their core values.

oh, I forgot, pat and his christofacist friends make millions by demonizing gays and lesbians.

even robertson realizes he cannot make black peoples into slaves again.

10. except not ALL gay people solicit kids
very few gay guys are into molesting children. It's usually straight men going after female children and teens. I think Pat Robertson enjoys perpetuating the myth that all gays are out to 'convert' adolescents to be homosexual. He seems to think that weak willed boys can be lead into a choice of becoming gay. Wonder when he made his choice?

14. Sure. Molest a kid? No problem.
Use the birth control pill, however, and you need to go to jail.

15. Foley pretended to protect kids, but was really a pedophile
Robertson pretends to protect people against gays... uh oh, better take a look at yourself, Pat!

There is nothing sicker than a person who denies who they are. All that suppression has to come out at some point.
