You believe in the Devil, Ten. You've stated it here on this thread. So what, in your mind, is WRONG with what Pat Robertson said?

Ted, there's no excusing what Pat Robertson said, but what Rush Limbaugh said is being twisted by his haters, as usual.

Not that Rush doesn't deserve it, but you might want to consider the possibility that he's trolling you guys.


Even if that's what's really going on here, do you really think a disaster as bad as the one in Haiti is a time to be playing? Did you all learn nothing about GW Bush's 'Waterloo'......Katrina? And more importantly, do any of you have any compassion for your fellow man? The truth is there are people in this country who feel the pain of the Haitians as they did with the victims of Katrina even if Rush et al doesn't.

Again, this is what Rush said.....its disgusting no matter the motivation:

"Yes, I think in the Haiti earthquake, ladies and gentlemen -- in the words of Rahm Emanuel -- we have another crisis simply too good to waste. This will play right into Obama's hands. He's humanitarian, compassionate. They'll use this to burnish their, shall we say, 'credibility' with the black community -- in the both light-skinned and dark-skinned black community in this country. It's made-to-order for them. That's why he couldn't wait to get out there, could not wait to get out there."
