The post-Fort Hood right-wing attack on their fellow American citizens continues. Here’s conservative Christian commentator Pat Robertson yesterday on “The 700 Club,” via ThinkProgress:
That is the ultimate aim. And they talk about infidels and all this, but the truth is that’s what the game is. So you are dealing with not a religion. You’re dealing with a political system. And I think we should treat it as such and treat its adherences as such as we would members of the Communist Party or members of some fascist group. Well, it’s a tragedy. Our hearts go out to the families who suffered. But those in the Army should be held on account for the fact they let this man loose.

Hey Pat: GOP + Christianity = fascism.
When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag, and carrying a cross. Sinclair Lewis

I don't like Pat Robertson, but this headline is mis-leading. He's not saying that Islam is not a religion he's saying the extremist belief system is not a religion and that we should treat it accordingly. I have never heard any of my Muslim brothers or sisters use the word infidel. I've only heard “terrorists” use that word

I do wonder if Pat Robertson is still alive because even Satan himself does not want him.

Agreed. I think it's funny that Bush and other conservative Christians fit that description, yet their minions decry Obama as a fascist
