Nobody's buying it, Pat

Just an update. Somebody should tell Pat, that when someone airs three minutes of you talking it's not really applicable to say that you're being taken out of context, unless of course the context is that you're a stark raving loon.

The one really nice thing about this, is that not only has this lunatic been very publicly outed on this issue, religious man issuing fatwa against a foreign leader, but all the other crazy sh*t that Robertson has said is being dredged back up.

There are good religious leaders out there, and maybe this will remind the TV people that maybe the guy with the best press agent isn't always the best guy. 'Course at the same time, anyone of these 24 hour network whores, Blitzer, O'Reilly, Olberman, would have killed to have had Robertson say that on their show.

Anyway, it was all just a bbbiiiiggg misunderstanding. Right, Pat?

(CNN) -- Conservative religious broadcaster Pat Robertson said Wednesday that his remarks about the removal of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez were taken out of context and that he never called for the killing of the Latin American leader.

"I didn't say 'assassination.' I said our special forces should 'take him out.' And 'take him out' can be a number of things, including kidnapping; there are a number of ways to take out a dictator from power besides killing him. I was misinterpreted by the AP [Associated Press], but that happens all the time," Robertson said on "The 700 Club" program.

Oh, and one quick complimentary, again to CNN. Reportedly, they have brought back all their reporters from Aruba and are making an effort to put the "missing white woman" story in its proper place, not reporting on it unless there's actually some change. Gotta wonder if Costa's public refusal to host a Larry King on this might have made some impression.

So, reward them. Watch CNN until they make you retch.(probably about ten minutes(less for Blitzer))
