And here I thought I'd get through the whole day without coming across anything worthy of posting.

Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson has suggested that American agents assassinate Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez to stop his country from becoming "a launching pad for communist infiltration and Muslim extremism."

Quote:

"We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability," Robertson said Monday on the Christian Broadcast Network's "The 700 Club."

And the last paragraph of the story is ... well, just see for yourself:

In October 2003, he suggested that the State Department be blown up with a nuclear device. He has also said that feminism encourages women to "kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians."

*boggle* Of the things that feminism will supposedly cause, "destroy capitalism" is the one that has me scratching my head the most.

But unfortunately I always have to end posts like these with the same comment: This would be funnier if there weren't people out there agreeing with him, nodding their heads at his comments, sending him money because they think he's right. Scary, scary people.

The "destroy capitalism" thing *probably* has something to do with the decrease in jobs available, since there are more people looking for work. Outwardly, this just seems like there will be a better chance of the right person being taken for the right job, which sounds like it would be *better* for capitalism, so maybe there's some other hidden reason. Maybe families spend more money than people living along per capita, I don't know. Whatever the case, he's still a dork.

"Let's oppress women so they don't practice witchcraftry!"

And I'm all for more lesbians in the world. *ducks*

Heehee. You're silly! *snuggles* <3

You still playing on that WoW MUSH? I get all my MUSH-fixes from your posts!

I am indeed! For various reasons, it's not quite what I'm used to, but when I can snake a scene for it I have a ball. As I found out the hard way, it's based before WoW - the headwiz despises WoW and everything WoW related, but loved the rest of the series. ;)

Now, if only I could get a *man* to validate what you said about me being silly...

(^ Woman oppression FTW!)

Oh, just wait till the day when MMO characters can move across games! Then my Dark Knight will tan your little cow-kitten-whatever-he-is character's butt!

Rarrr!

I'm going to stick to my general rules:

1) Organized Religion is a fine thing (for other people)!
2) Religion and Politics go together like gasoline and fire.
3) Extremists of any sort are scary.
4) Flush after using the toilet.

*snug* That said...Pat Robertson is a scary dude. It just doesn't compute that anyone would buy into his insane pronouncements.

I like those rules, and I'm sure to follow #4 every day!

And agreed, on everything. As usual. :P

My. How very... *Christian* of him. *boggles*

That was my thought, too. Isn't that one of those rules they follow? "Thou shall kill anyone who threatens you in any way"?

:P

XD How about 'thou shall kill all stupid idiots claiming Christianity and making the rest of us look like insane lunatics'. ;3 It's the 13th commandment! Honest!

Rawr. Ignore the Communist drivel type stuff. The main thing to be concerned about with this Venezuelan dude is that he looks up to Castro. And Venezuela is where we get 25% of our oil. He has threatened and said that he will cut off all of their oil sales to us if he so wanted. CIA wouldn't assassinate him due to that darned anti-assassination thing Clinton lobbed out. If we ever killed some guy we'd ignore it or say it was some crazy terrorist. Still, I say we just work around this guy. Drill up in ANWAR and cut this dude and OPEC out of the equation. He won't get hurt if he doesn't sell us his oil. He'll just deal it to China or something.

Feminism *can* make women turn lesbian. I have seen this! ;__; I'm sure if you Google it, you'll get a documentary <3 I TOOK A WOMEN WRITERS CLASS. I SAW THE DARK SIDE :-( The teacher never stopped talking about chocolate. And the TA had a buzz-cut with a HUGE fiery angel tattooed on her back. She had a revealing shirt on =o I saw the flaming angel at first and screamed "HOLYSHITAFLAMINGANGEL" and splashed her with a pail of water.

She wasn't happy. And I got a C in that class. C for Chauvinistic she said :-(

I tried googling it like you said, but I got distracted by all the porn.

Mmmm, porn.

Ahahahahah. That poor bastard is getting senile in his old age, I swear. In the eighties, he wasn't even half as utterly batshit as he is now.

(Of course, I wouldn't mind more lesbians. It's lonely being single. ;))

Women does practice witchcraft. They cast a magic spell that makes you stop at your tracks and increase your heart rate by ten fold; it'll also cause your mind to become blank. If they are a high level witchcraft, they can turn their prey into a slave. Their ability to destroy capatilism is only a small extent of their wrath, if we anger about 50% of the women in the world, then we will truly experience "Mass Destruction." Lesbians are a good thing, matter of fact, it's a great thing.

Yes, in conclusion, females are vile creatures. I urge everyone to avoid them. As a kind hearted individual in this lonely planet we call earth, I shall take every female and lock them into a large room along with myself to assure they don't escape. I will personally take care of them by myself.
And I think I have too much to drink and it's really late, nighty night. *Clings to a pillow*

*just... facepalms* Why is he still around again? I agree assassinations are the easier (not best) way to deal with bad people types, but it's not his call and he shouldn't try and rally people over it. Nor is that a valid reason without physical proof or conviction. c.c For cryin' out loud, what an idiot.
