Because you haven’t heard Pat Robertson say anything really stupid lately…
Of course, if you haven’t heard Pat Robertson say anything really stupid lately, that’s probably because you don’t listen to Pat Robertson every day. And neither do we — we haven’t the luxury of sitting around laughing all day. (more…)

And Bryan Fischer is advocating kidnapping children from nice, normal, gay parents who don’t tie up their kids in the name of religious lunacy? Yes, he is.
