Robertson Blames Hurricane On Ellen Degeneres!!!
Edited on Tue Sep-13-05 01:31 PM by im10ashus
This is DEFINITELY parody. Just check out their home page. We could use some levity though. :-)

On edit: THIS IS SATIRE!!!! Even though we know how batshit crazy Robertson is, it's SATIRE!!!! We could use some levity here. Laugh away!



Hollywood – Pat Robertson on Sunday said that Hurricane Katrina was God’s way of expressing its anger at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for its selection of Ellen Degeneres to host this year’s Emmy Awards. “By choosing an avowed lesbian for this national event, these Hollywood elites have clearly invited God’s wrath,” Robertson said on “The 700 Club” on Sunday. “Is it any surprise that the Almighty chose to strike at Miss Degeneres’ hometown?”

Robertson also noted that the last time Degeneres hosted the Emmys, in 2001, the September 11 terrorism attacks took place shortly before the ceremony.

“This is the second time in a row that God has invoked a disaster shortly before lesbian Ellen Degeneres hosted the Emmy Awards,” Robertson explained to his approximately one million viewers. “America is waiting for her to apologize for the death and destruction that her sexual deviance has brought onto this great nation.”

Robertson added that other tragedies of the past several years can be linked to Degeneres’ growing national prominence. September, 2003, for example, is both the month that her talk show debuted and when insurgents first gained a foothold in Iraq following the successful March invasion. “Now we know why things took a turn for the worse,” he explained.

cont'd...

11. COME ONNNNN!!!!!! This has GOTTA be a gag!
“God already allows one awards show to promote the homosexual agenda,” Robertson declared. “But clearly He will not tolerate such sinful behavior to spread beyond the Tonys.”

13. Now I get it! It's all Ellen's fault!
Of course that implies that all other lesbians, all the way down to Matcom (the "official lesbian" of the Lounge) are off the hook.

So the Ellen show created the insurgency in Iraq, did it? Damn that Ellen, sending coded messages to those America-hating heathens inside pictures of puppies that look like Sally Jessy Raphael! :sarcasm:

Oh, by the way, Marion ("Pat" is a nickname), Ellen is actually from Metairie, which was much less hard hit than New Orleans proper. Cluephone! It's for you...

16. OMG..is this true?
ok first off, Im a lesbian. For some reason I have been left to roam the streets....my god, is it true?! Am I too....a walking catastrophe? Or...since I have not.....YET.....been invited to host a national event, I have not managed to kill thousands of people?!!!

WTF? I swear, Robertson followers should all be put away in padded rooms and given lots of medication for their mental illness.

Robertson should be horse whipped in public.....at least.

How is it that people this stupid are allowed to operate motor vehicles? Raise children?
Im disgusted........as usual.

20. I forgive anyone who didn't think this was satire
Somebody just line up a nice collection of Robertson's more bizarre statements then slip this article in. I deny anybody to spot it as a fake.

21. By the same token, should blame Bush
Nine months after he took office - 9/11
Nine months after second oath - Katrina

Surely someone who sees the "hand of god" in anything should realize that Bush is bad thing for this country

(Yes, I know this is satire but perhaps someone can take this seriously)
