And the media defends them ... Guess they'll defend Hitler, too?

I want to know if Pat Robertson is on the TSA watch list. The man called for people to to attack Washington, DC with a nuclear bomb. If I said that, I would be considered a terrorist.

Haven't seen that. Got a link/quote?

"If I could just get a nuclear device inside Foggy Bottom, I think that's the answer," Robertson asserted in the interview.

He added, "I mean, you get through this [book], and you say, 'We've got to blow that thing up.'"

Reaction from the State Department has been one of shock and scorn of Robertson's "despicable" comments.

"I lack sufficient capabilities to express my disdain," reacted Richard Boucher, spokesman for the State Department, during a press briefing.

Robertson has long been openly critical of the State Department, which he says works against the best interests of the United States.

But this is not the first time Robertson has called for the destruction of the State Department. In a similar interview with Mowbray in June, Robertson alluded to a desire to blow up Foggy Bottom then as well.

"Well, it looks like Congress had better do something, and maybe we need a very small nuke thrown off on Foggy Bottom to shake things up," Robertson said on his program four months ago.

You forgot to clarify that by "one of them" you mean "a member of their exact brand of islam (i.e. suni muslim)" all members of other brands of islam must be eradicated too.

You have to love our little terrorist watch list. It lets the governments claim anything they want about anyone and act on that information as it were real, without ever proving a single thing. Makes you wonder what kind of watch lists we will have when terrorists go out of style.

So, what proof do you require?

I'd say that's good enough reason to bar him from flying. Can we deport him?

I'll bet he is. Any time someone makes a statement like that, suddenly they start getting some attention from the men in black suits.

However you also have to make a distinction between random blowhards who are just talking out their butt and people who have actually followed through on their threats. So who knows?

So you are in favor of the Kerry method of waiting until they actually blow something up and kill people before taking any kind of action?
