I didn't read it the same way, because I read "I mean, you get through this, and you say, 'We've got to blow that thing up.' I mean, is it as bad as you say?" and noticed the distancing devices "I mean" and "you say" and read the point as saying that the State Department is really dangerous and needs to be stopped, not that either Robertson or his guest recommend a nuke as the means of stopping it. Robertson, like Rush or O'Reilly, is largely speaking to his chosen audience who enjoy the hyperbole. I have a hunch that that's how we would judge it if we saw the tape. But since it's Robertson and since he used the word 'nuke', people get all alarmed over it.
