Chatter box Pat Robertson: I Warned Bush On Iraq

Doesn't this seem to be a out of touch scenario? Oh man...pull out my rose colored glasses

Top evangelist Pat Robertson said he warned President Bush to prepare the American people for U.S. casualties in Iraq but that Mr. Bush replied, "We're not going to have any casualties."

Re: Pat Robertson: I Warned Bush On Iraq

OK, I think you know by now that I don't think Bush is a very smart guy. But I think even HE couldn't believe there would be zero casualties! (Could he?)

Let's see...

Pat Robertson vs. George Bush

Who is more believable?

I really can't decide

Re: Pat Robertson: I Warned Bush On Iraq

Pat Robertson?

Wow, I seem to remember a discussion on this board some months back with the anti-Bush crowd screaming what a flaming nut job Robertson is. Now we're supposed believe him because he says something against the President?

Personally, I think the guy has some issues and I don't take him seriously at all, whether he supporting the President or attacking him.

Re: Pat Robertson: I Warned Bush On Iraq

I can personally vouch for the fact that Pat Robertson is a complete and total nutbag. I have seen him preach live and in person. Twice.

He cannot see the future and he is not in personal contact with the Lord as he claims he is.

That's kind of my thinking on him, too. That's why I think anything he says should be met with much skepticism. He seems like a kook.

I wasn't involved in this. Does seem that he has a good memory of event.
I didn't know that he was a former marine.

"Is Pat Robertson telling the truth when he said you didn't think there'd be any casualties, or is Pat Robertson lying?"

Some political and theological allies quickly dismissed Robertson's account.

"I think he speaks for an ever diminishing group of evangelicals on most issues," said Dr. Richard Land, president of the ethics and religious liberties commission of the Southern Baptist Convention.

I got it-how about a 30 minute news event..with Pat hooked up to a lie detector? That would be a good show

Re: Pat Robertson: I Warned Bush On Iraq

Pat Robertson...doesn't he do 700 club? All I have to say is I watched him once and that was enough. The man is a fool. What denomination is he anyways?

I don't know the details of pat robertson, but in politics it seems once you start talking against a party/candidate you suddenly become a whack job/nut case-the usual goodies.

Hi, I finally registered after being a looky-lew for a while. Here is my take on this controversy.


Last year, the President told Bob Woodward he talked with The Lord our God on the eve of the war, and God assured the President the war was the right thing to do, and it would be "fine." So, at roughly the same hour on the same day, God said to the President the war would be "fine," and said to Pat Robertson the war would be "a disaster"????

There you have it, God is a "flip flopper."

Or, somebody wasn't listening.

I'm sure you're right about that... it was Pat that wasn't quite tuned in, I believe.

Yes. He is on your side. And he makes me laugh too. But he uses the same style for every post and I am already tired of his sarcasm and distortion.
