Oh, Mr. Robertson
I said before that Mike Savage was the dumbest ‘smart’ person, but maybe I was wrong. Step into the circle Pat Robertson, who recently told the world that Prime Minster Ariel Sharon´s stroke may have been God´s wrath for pulling out of the Gaza strip. After all, Mr. Robertson said, ¨God considers this land to be his.¨ Are you serious? Do you believe that land is essential to God?

I wonder how it is possible that the general public is not aware of the president’s past, in particular, the relationship between his granddad Prescott Bush and Nazi Germany. Any thoughts? Oh, you don’t know about Prescott Bush? That’s my point, so look it up and post your comments.
