Chavez is a hazard to the world. I'll leave my comments at that.

[Stellar Dendrite]

Right on pat!!!

[Antoninus]

Chavez is clinging to Fidel, because Fidel is the exception to the rule in Latin America--a dictator who managed not to get a bullet in the back of the head from one of his lieutenants or an insurgent mob. I don't think Hugo will be so lucky. He was dumb enough to get "crank called" by those DJs in Miami--I think it's just a matter of time, really.

[Torie]

What an ass. The guy just loves publicity. Chavez will make good use of Robertson's big mouth.

[bushinohio]

Now the press will run with this and turn a decent man into a demon. They'll misrepresent Robertson's comments and say that all Christians are hypocrites. Never mind all of the liberals who've wished death to George Bush or compared him to Hitler. Never mind Dick Durbin calling our fighting men and women Nazis.

[Flux Capacitor]

Pat, you're as idiotic as Chavez is dangerous.

[tuckrdout]

And killing Chavez wouldn't be "extreme"???!! Wouldn't that make us just like the Muslims?

Come on Pat! Why would you say such a thing? For crying out loud, that is all the body of Christ needs, is a call for killing someone!

What would Jesus do, Pat? What DID Jesus do? I don't think you are spending enough time with him....take a break.

[Just mythoughts]

Not promoting Robertson but this Chaves is looking for a fight.

Robar 50 Cal Bump!

[aculeus]

Thanks a lot, Pat.

You've just lost the Republicans many thousands of potential votes.

Why don't you stick to diverting hurricanes, you idiot.

[CyberAnt]

WHAT ..??

I'm stunned!

[CompGeek]

I've said it before and I'll say it again. You couldn't conjure a more simplistic, dense, and ignorant person if you tried. Every negative stereotype of Christians is personified in one man (oh, and Falwell).

[HisKingdomWillAbolishSinDeath]

"You know, I don't know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it," Robertson said. "It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war ... and I don't think any oil shipments will stop." Lets not get carried away. If you read this statement, its couched in a certain level of sarcasm and insincerity. Taking things out of context is a staple of news reporting.

[Salvey]

Hey, I'd swear I saw the guy on the left washing dishes in the local eatery, earlier this evening.

[HisKingdomWillAbolishSinDeath]

What he said is similar to what tons of people say everyday on Freerepublic and everywhere else. Example: I can't tell you how many people say "nuke this, nuke that". But do they really mean it? I say about 99% would not do it if they thought about it carefully.

[snarks_when_bored]

Awwwwwwwww, Hugo and Fidel have got their cute little caps on.

[RightOnline]

What a bunch of self-righteous a-holes on this thread.

Robertson's right, and every one of you naysaying pricks knows it.

So get off of what religion he is or isn't.

[ladyinred]

Oh my, I wonder if he had said Bush instead of Chavez how the media would treat Robertson? The leftists have called for Bushs' death many times and are just expressing their free speech rights.

[DaGman]

I don't think Jesus Christ approves of Robertson's comments and because He doesn't, I don't.

[Thombo2]

I wouldn't have a problem if we took out Chavez,and i'll bet alot of Americans agree,but i think RevRobertson should have kept his opinion to himself.
