Pat Robertson is an IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, Gerard, like that's really breaking news isn't it?

Did they get a golden fiddle in the deal?

WOW.....I'm just shocked..when you think he can't say anything worse and btw very "nonChristian" like he tops his prior *********gery.

Jeez horrible, Rush really said some stupid stuff using Haiti to attack Obama as well. Very poor form.

Absolutely disgusting and the Republicans better tread lightly on this or it might come back and bite them on their fat butts.
This is not an issue to play politics with.

[NIKV69]

The republican party doesn't have anything to do with or can control what Rush says. He is a radio talk show host. Not an elected official.

But he's the unoffical "face" of the GOP Nick. His listeners are 99% GOP.

[NIKV69]

So 99% of Rachel Maddow's listeners are far left liberals and she says dumb things too. Does that make her an unofficial "face" of the DNC? Of course not. Rush is not a face for the GOP. official or otherwise. This is just a talking point, spin and propaganda propagated by the left to make you believe the GOP is evil because sometimes he says stupid things but also has been pretty accurate and has pointed out how bad Obama and Pelosi have screwed things up. As the approval polls drop and senate races tighten like the one in MA next week this will only get worse but still doesn't make Rush anything but what he is. A citizen with an opinion that differs from the far left and is potentially damaging to them.

Nick in many cases perception is people's reality and its no secret Rush speaks from the right, and his opinions and suggestions are taken by heart from his audience. What he said was stupid and had no place on the air. The Gov't response so far to Haiti is leaps and bounds better then it was for Kattrina.

Can't argue that. I am very disappointed in him being a part time listener of his. Haiti should be out of bounds for all radio personalities. That was low and GWB did screw the dog on Katrina his admins response was piss poor.

[Matt Molnar]

Katrina was the beginning of the end for Dubya. If it had been handled correctly, things would have gone much, much differently. Unfortunately "the end" was three years long.

Haiti, Cuba and many other places in Latin America where the government has brought a tradition/culture of atheism and cults like Voodoo, Santeria, etc have progressed... backwards. Haiti used to be wealthy, Havana used to be a world city.

It's a valid argument that centuries of Voodoo for the former, and half a century of Marxism, atheism and Santeria for the latter, has brought them to where they are today.

All valid points BUT..... none of that caused the earthquake.
