It's a wonder that gay Americans are as patient as they are with some of these
Religious Right wingers

Patient? Sorry Cenk, not me.
I have a Google Blog
Alert for Pat Robertson giving me the latest news and comments about
our illustrious Religious Right Leader, so I was surprised to see that
blog roundup smny.net was running comments on a piece that occurred 1 year ago. Then I read the comments. Take two:
Pat Robertson makes me feel ashamed of being a human being
and the more pertinent:
WOW The sad part is people believe this sh*t.
THE SAD PART
Asking
for Pat Robertson's advice is like asking a parrot for directions to
the nearest hospital: you might get an answer, just not the one you
need right now. Of course, Robertson is always full of it. Advice,
that is. Ask me what else he's full of some other time. His book, Bring It On, is chock full of wisdom and knowledge no Christian household should be without.
For example:
Just what is Islam and why do those people hate Americans so much?
Muhammad claimed to have had a series of dreams and visions in which a being he called "Allah," who was the moon god among the deities in Mecca, a city in Saudi Arabia where Muhammad's father was the keeper of three hundred sixty stones, including a black stone which was probably a piece of meteor... The moon god (the symbol of Islam is a crescent moon) supposedly appeared to Muhammad and revealed to him the tenets of Islam...The name [Koran] means "recitations," possibly because it was meant to be read aloud, but more likely because it was delivered orally by Muhammad to his friends, who wrote it down.
