Pat Robertson’s battle

I’m late in posting this, but post it I must. Pat Robertson, sorry, God, has it in for Dover, PA voters who yanked anti-evolution school board members from office — a crystal clear rejection of the intelligent design “controversy” that’s been foisted on their community by oustide Christianist agitators. (Read my earler post here.)

You’ve already seen it, but let’s print again what the good reverend said:

I’d like to say to the good citizens of Dover. If there is a disaster in your area, don’t turn to God, you just rejected Him from your city. And don’t wonder why He hasn’t helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I’m not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that’s the case, don’t ask for His help because he might not be there.

Is Robertson a “private citizen,” as Donald Rumsfeld recently insisted? Strictly speaking, yes, but he’s also a Republican operative. The matter is not in doubt.
