"If he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war."

"We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability. We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one strong-arm dictator. It's a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with."

And is it only for ok for government sanctioned assination squads to kill him, or can just anybody do it?

And is there a bounty?

We can't really make any plans without details. We need more info. Anybody got Pat's phone number?

All good questions Dude, maybe we should ask the former senior Clinton advisor George Stephanopoulos, in 1997 he said the same thing Robertson did, only he said it about Saddam, and in much greater detail. So of course you condemn him for that opion as well. By the way, where was the so called media when old Stephy said this? Where was the outrage? He even went so far as to say "If Clinton decides we can and should assassinate Saddam, he could call in national-security adviser Sandy Berger and sign a secret National Security Decision Directive authorizing it." and "What's unlawful - and unpopular with the allies - is not necessarily immoral."

What both men said is wrong, very wrong. Robertson has nothing to do the the administration, while George Stephanopoulos was a high level advisor.

Have a nice day and remember do not let the facts change your almighty opinion they are after all only facts.


P.S. Calling Chavez a democratically elected president is like calling Saddam a democratically elected president. Just ask Castro what it is like to win that kind of election.

As for what the outrage is about, speak for yourself. I'm outraged that a public figure proposes government sanctioned murder without due process or a formal declaration of war. I don't give a f*ck whether he's a televangelist or a presidential advisor.

All this left/right maneuvering to condemn it when one guy does it but excuse or mitigate it when another does it just makes me sick. It was wrong then. It's wrong now. End of story.

The thought HAS come up that Robertson issued a "terrorist threat" under the Patriot Act. So shouldn't he... er... be detained while the courts try and figure out exactly WHEN he is due his consitutional rights? Then he can hang out at Club Gitmo and compare religions with the other inmates. I mean, detainees.

As a Christian, I believe we should call for the immediate burning at the stake of anyone who would dare go against the Great Pat Robertson. Actually, I think we should burn all the heathens, but not because Pat said so.
