in another rift between religion and intelligence, religious broadcaster pat robertson said that as he was praying, he heard god tell him that bush would win in 2004. “The Lord has just blessed him,” Robertson said of Bush. “I mean, he could make terrible mistakes and comes out of it. It doesn’t make any difference what he does, good or bad, God picks him up because he’s a man of prayer and God’s blessing him.” gods a republican…argh! and here i thought god was a bleeding heart liberal. so howard dean gets al gores endorsement, and george bush gets gods. hopefully the democrats can follow this up by scoring support from one of the major norse gods…maybe thor, or even odin. or maybe they could get brahma, lord of creation to endorse them. i mean, at the very least ganesh has to support the democrats…
the best quote from the article however, comes from rev. barry w. lynn, one of robertson’s critics. lynn said that he “…had a prediction of his own: ‘Pat Robertson in 2004 will continue to use his multimillion broadcasting empire to promote George Bush and other Republican candidates.’ In a reference to Bush’s political adviser, Lynn said, ‘Maybe Pat got a message from Karl Rove and thought it was from God.’“
i would actually argue that the most religious candidate for president is joe lieberman.
