The bland face of Evil.



Yesterday, in posting links to Haiti relief, I made a silly joke about God having a mean streak when everybody knows He's bipolar.

But Pat Robertson is not joking. This scion of wealth and privilege knows for sure, without any trace of doubt, that his kind and merciful God put out a hit on the poorest people in our hemisphere because 200 years ago, a few superstitious slaves supposedly made a deal with the devil.

Which Pat understands because that's how he got his TV show.

And people actually send this man money. This man who smuggles blood diamonds. This man who thinks women who want equal opportunities are practicing witchcraft. This man who believes that Christians in today's America face persecution "...more terrible than anything suffered by any minority in history."

Holy fuck. That's a lot of suffering.

But Pat, as seriously fucking deluded as he is, as twisted and perverse, as evil and cruel as he shows himself to be with every disaster, from 9/11 to Katrina and now to Haiti, is still holding the coat of the main toad in this loathsome display - Rush Limbaugh.



You know when Rush had chest pains over the holidays and the doctors said it wasn't a heart attack? That's because they couldn't find a heart.

I bring up these two awful people because I find that I'm still capable of being surprised by how despicable some people can be, and that's reassuring. Apparently, I'm not quite the cynic I sometimes think I am.

"Both light skinned and black skinned."

I'm confused.

I wonder if Pat Robertson is still hawking his line of diet stuff, you know just like Jesus did. I saw him playing pitchman one day and I couldn't change the channel. I was spellbound. Here he was doddering his way through all these claims while his dutiful black sidekick nodded her pretty head toward the camera. I wondered when this greedy bastard would finally have enough tax-free money in his coffers. Apparently never. As for Limpbaugh he's a parasite. He feeds on the hatred of his listeners and makes sure their bellies are full again by the time his show is over for the day. He belongs in a circus inside one of those murky bottles where freaks of nature are kept.
