Robertson: God will anoint Bush

Straight from the fair and balanced reporting of Fox News, this is too funny to pass up:

Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson said Friday he believes God has told him President Bush will be re-elected in a "blowout" in November.

"I think George Bush is going to win in a walk," Robertson said on his "700 Club" program on the Virginia Beach-based Christian Broadcasting Network, which he founded. "I really believe I'm hearing from the Lord it's going to be like a blowout election in 2004. It's shaping up that way."

Moe Lane of Obsidian Wings had this to say about Pat's prayerful prediction:
It'd be worth a close election (as long as Bush still wins it, of course) just to watch old Pat try to wiggle out of it afterwards: the problem with guys like Robertson is that when he reads the Old Testament he spends too much time in Leviticus and not enough in either Job* or Ecclesiastes.
Moe can be forgiven for his taste in presidential candidates for that line, and for pointing out this zinger in the article in question from The Rev. Barry W. Lynn, executive director of Americans United for Separation of Church and State:
In a reference to Bush's political adviser, Lynn said, "Maybe Pat got a message from [Bush adviser] Karl Rove and thought it was from God."

Robertson needs to realize that many people have been given involuntary doses of Zyprexa for the voices they hear like that.
