Way to go Patty Boy

Posted by: BamBam In: Disturbia| Religion| ctype( "Funny" bambam)

Pat Robertson got a thing for natural disasters, I think they tickle his prickliness. He keeps on talking about them as if they are actually  spiteful and retributive acts of god.

This is the guy that warned Orlando, dover, New Orleasn, NY and the USA at large of “earthquakes, tornadoes, and possibly a meteor.”

Usually the attacks are squared at anyone or anything with a liberal agenda.

The perplexing thing now is that it extends now to anyone who has fought colonialism. Basically what he is talking about is how the Haitians brought the horrible and destructive earthquake the devastated the poor country on themselves because they made a pack with the devil to achieve independence from the french …. psshh “everyone knows that!” he exclaimed dismissively.

paraphrasing Hitchens:  Pat are so full of shit my friend that if i gave you an enema you’ll be able to walk through a pinhole. But saddly he’s not too off about what he said

Summary: Haiti was forced to pay France for its freedom. When they couldn’t afford the ransom, France (and other countries, including the United States) helpfully offered high-interest loans. By 1900, 80% of Haiti’s annual budget went to paying off its “reparation” debt. They didn’t make the last payment until 1947. Just 10 years later, dictator François Duvalier took over the country and promptly bankrupted it, taking out more high-interest loans to pay for his corrupt lifestyle. The Duvalier family, with the blind-eye financial assistance of Western countries, killed 10s of thousands of Haitians, until the Haitian people overthrew them in 1986. Today, Haiti is still paying off the debt of an oppressive dictator no one would help them get rid of for 30 years.

The rest of the world refuses to forgive this debt.

Lord have mercy, take away Brother Pat’s microphone and send him to Florida to play golf. What is it with loud mouthed religious folks and natural disasters?

I didn’t know that countries wouldn’t forgive Haiti’s (Duvailers) debt. I know two churches I attended send hefty relief checks every month and have sister relationships with Haitian churches. Individual and national tragedy. I fear for what has happened…one news report wondered if Haiti is destroyed for good.

@kinzi the way the news is shaping so far and how the situation was before the quake. The country seems to be pretty much on its way to be obsolete. which is really sad.

If his god-fearing presidents and kings take control of lands, expunge exorbitant amounts of money through oppression, and murder them for that, well do you blame them for siding with the devil, then?
