The sad part is he's factually correct, LOL.

Pat Robertson: Democrats Now ‘The Party Of Gays, Godlessness, And Whatever Else’ | Mediaite

Quote:
During his 700 Club commentary Wednesday morning, televangelist Pat Robertson went after the Democratic Party for its removal of the word “God” from its party platform.

“Back in the 1850s or 60s there was a charge that one party was the party of rum, Romanism and rebellion,” he began. “I don’t know what you label the Democrats now but it’s the party of gays, godlessness and whatever else.”

“I mean, same-sex marriage is in the platform — they want to go along with that as a right,” he added. “I’m just astounded.”

Later in his commentary, he directly addressed the Democrats, saying: “You have insulted the Catholic Church with your rules, you have insulted right-to-work states, you have insulted certain union groups with your stand on the [Keystone] pipeline and now you’re going after God.”

“It makes no sense but that’s what they want to do,” Robertson concluded.

Pat Robertson is astounded that not everyone is much of a narrow-minded bigot as he is? Stunning.

Don't care for him much either but he's spot on with this one.

Spot on about what exactly? I think it's "whatever else" that's throwing me for a loop. "Gays and godlessness" is already clearly a silly statement.

If for no other reason than the fact that there are plenty of gay people who believe in God.

I hate to say that the world feels like it is without God. I think homosexuality leads to other things like more sin. More crimes being committed by the leud.
