There are many responses, some of which involve throwing the laptop through walls, windows, etc. Fortunately, i'm too tired and so the laptop and marriage remain in tact. Also, author Donald Miller already handled it well enough at his blog. Here is the entire post, here is an excerpt:"You seem angry and tired. Christ loves you. He is not impressed with your religious posturing. He really loves you. You don’t have to hide behind anything anymore. The good news really is that good."
Elsewhere, Jon Stewart reacted to Robertson and the equally tactless Rush Limbaugh, who decided to declare that "[the unspeakable disaster] would play right into Obama's hands" and that Obama's administration could "use [the unspeakable disaster] to burnish their credibility with the black community," both light and dark-skinned. (i wish i were joking, i really do) Jon Stewart, on Comedy Central, threw the book at these two jackasses on their respective Christian and Conservative networks. And by book, i mean The Holy Bible.

Thanks to Misters Miller and Stewart and the Bible they quote, i have nothing to add beyond the plea to Robertson's and Limbaugh's fans to please reconsider your allegiances.

The top of my head is about to pop off those two men make me so angry... Thanks for this post Kallie! (And thanks also to Miller and Stewart)
well i think the "blessing in disguise" comment might be taken out of context. it sounds like he's refering to the great opportunity to help rebuild a better haiti. however, i don't think he's got an ounce of tact seeing as how there are thousands of bodies under the fallen buildings and he should have considered that before his comment! regarding the pact with satan clip...well that's why pat robertson is crazy. he is one of the reasons why people hate christians.
