Here it is. Earlier in the day the Top 10 post said we want to see Rush and Pat Robertson gone from the news. Obviously this has had a huge impact and their ratings tanked (or so we think). So they had to do something real quick to reverse the affect of this posting and the subsequent rating plunge. They had to be back in the news. This is what they came up with:
Pat Robertson said Haiti is "cursed."
Rush lambasted Obama for doing the right thing: seeming to care and encourage people to help out.
These two people and others of their ilk are so into themselves that they can not forgo any opportunity, even a catastrophe of this magnitude, to promote their own hideous agendas. Why would they think otherwise. Based on the high perch they are sitting on they think no harm can come to them. They are thinking they are Gods. One hates Obama and the other hates the entire human race altogether. Then they add a little something to make sure they can back track and weasel their way out of the hateful comments they make.
Here is what they said verbatim:
While Mr. loudmouth was speaking on his radio show Wednesday, Limbaugh said the earthquake has played into Obama's hands, allowing the president to look "compassionate" and "humanitarian" while at the same time bolstering his standing in both the "light-skinned and dark-skinned black community in this country."
He also added this for extra measure: "We've already donated to Haiti. It's called the U.S. income tax." I wonder if he thinks the same when he unabashedly supports giving billions to I$rael.
This is of note and maybe start of something big. While Limbaugh received some support from his own ilk, nobody of note has stepped up to defend Robertson's claim that Haiti got hit by an earthquake because it is "cursed."
This is what he said during one of the airings of his (cursed) program "The 700 Club" on the Christian Broadcasting Network, Robertson said that when Haiti was still a French colony it's leaders "swore a pact to the devil" to get out from "under the heel of the French."
"They said, 'we will serve you if you will get us free from the French.' True story. And so, the devil said, 'OK, it's a deal,'. But ever since they have been cursed by one thing after the other." Then he continued. "That island of Hispaniola is one island. It is cut down the middle on the one side is Haiti the other is the Dominican Republic. Dominican Republic is prosperous, healthy, full of resorts, etc. Haiti is in desperate poverty."
Word on the street is that the French are seething with rage but can't do a thing about it. Probably because Sarkozy is "Con de class mondial" which is, for you non-French speakers means "world class idiot."
It's a matter of great surprise that both of these people remain in the media because they have huge number of followers. But the only reason they have these followers is perhaps because racism and bigotry is still alive and very well in the US.
It's not OK to say "Nappy Head H**" referring to a sports team and if you do you get humiliated, bumped off the network, and run out of town while Rush and Pat can get away with murder and nobody says a word.
France wants to ban Muslim women from wearing veil, the hijab or whatever it is that they call it. This is one of the most misguided policies that have come about and matches pretty closely to the hateful law the Swiss passed few days ago about the minarets.
