Pat Robertson: I'm a financial wiz

Who would have guessed that Pat Robertson -- best known for waging "war" on gays, cultural liberals and anything related to the Democratic Party -- was a financial genius? Yeah, I was shocked too.

But Robertson, who once linked Hurricane Katrina to legalized abortion and terrorism, is pushing a new book on personal finance. In an interview with Time magazine, amidst the discussion about 401(k)s and budgeting, the one-time Republican presidential candidate made the following statement:


"Well, actually I manage a couple of stock portfolios or funds or whatever you want to call 'em, and I think I've done relatively well with them," the magazine quotes him as saying. "My broker says I'm in the top 1 percent of fund managers with the results I've been having."

Check out that last quote. "...I manage a couple of stock portfolios or funds or whatever you want to call 'em".

"Shucks guys, I got my money in a wad with a rubber band around it in a coffee can in the cupboard..." Listen to that down home, folksy bullshit he's spewing out about "his" investments. "Or whatever you want to call it..." Why play dumb? Please Pat, you know exactly what your investments are and what they are doing. How do you plan on "advising" the fundy zombie soccer moms who watch your show? Gonna tell them how they can get in tight with African dictators to exploit blood diamonds? Sick pathetic old man, time to shuffle off this mortal coil, Pat, doesn't your lord await your arrival or some other such bullshit?

5. If there is a Satan, it's Pat Robertson.

Just when I think Hannity is the slimiest incarnation of bullshit, somebody mentions this asshole.

6. Doesn't he own his own huge jet to fly to his mines in Africa and didn't the

set-up with the mines mean befriending one of the most criminal leaders on the continent?

And didn't he put is religious twist on it?

Did his faithful follower initially fund it or was he already independently wealthy?

What's that word ... anti ... anti ?
