... and all that the sanctimonous son-of-a-bitch stands for!
at Robertson: Islam isn’t a religion; treat Muslims like fascists

'Birther' lawyer: Fort Hood proves soldiers should be allowed to disobey orders

Conservative commentators are ratcheting up anti-Muslim rhetoric in the wake of last week's Fort Hood massacre, with televangelist Pat Robertson leading the way with a declaration that Islam is "not a religion," but a "political system" bent on destroying all the world's governments.

In a commentary on his show, The 700 Club, Robertson noted that the alleged shooter in the Fort Hood massacre, Nidal Malik Hasan, had come to the attention of authorities prior to the rampage by emailing a radical cleric and trying to contact Al Qaeda.

"Nobody wanted to go after him because of political correctness," Robertson said on Monday. "We just don't talk about somebody's quote 'religion,' even if the religion involved beheading infidels and pouring boiling oil down their throats."

Robertson said Islam should be treated like a fringe political movement.
Fascists, eh? Wipe the retarded drool from your own chin, Pat, before you note the spittle on someone else's.

ORLY TAITZ: 'BLIND OBEDIENCE' TO MILITARY CAUSED FORT HOOD MASSACRE

But Robertson's theme this week -- that the military is to blame for not preventing the massacre -- has been echoed by numerous right-wing pundits. As David Weigel reported at the Washington Independent, "birther" lawyer Orly Taitz is arguing that the Fort Hood massacre is evidence that soldiers should be allowed to disobey orders.

Taitz is the lawyer who has spearheaded a number of largely unsuccessful lawsuits challenging Barack Obama's legitimacy as president on the argument that Obama is not a natural-born citizen of the United States. She was behind the release of the now-discredited "Kenyan birth certificate" for the president.

In an appeal of a federal court's decision to dismiss one of her lawsuits, Taitz wrote:

Recent terrorist incident at Fort Hood has given this question paramount importance. This order has advocated blind obedience by the members of the military. If someone were to have common sense, brains and strength of character to challenge allegiance of Nidal Malik Hasan in court, after he made numerous anti-American and antimilitary statements, maybe 12 young boys wouldn’t be 6 feet under today, maybe 12 mothers and 12 fathers wouldn’t had their hearts ripped out of their chests and torn apart.

Thank you for that, Orly. Now wipe your chin, dear, then go see if you can get Pat cleaned up, won't you?

I saw this coming the minute I heard about the shootongs, but Orly's blurt set me back a pace. Soldiers allowed to disobey orders? On a stupidity scale of 1 to 10, that ranks somewhere around 19.

"Ok, men, I need half of you to hit hard from the right flank! If you feel like it, I mean. The rest of you will follow me up the middle, if your conscience allows it. Anyone who doesn't feel like coming raise your hands and you can stay behind for juice and crackers. Now, charge!"

Like I keep saying, once you think you have seen the stupidest possible person, some one will come along to prove you wrong.
