      Hello Bob,               LL>> As such, the televangelist had to watch his words so as not        LL>> to offend any members of The 700 Club else it become The        LL>> 666 Club.               BK>> I'll remember that one.               LL>> Give the devil his due. :)              BK>You're not the devil...though I am torn, should I say, "You're       BK>not that bad", or "You're not that good"?              Like Muhammad Ali, "I am the *GREATEST*!"               LL>> As if that was not enough to convince folks that Petreaus is        LL>> a good man who has done nothing wrong, Robertson continued -               LL>> "The man's off in a foreign land and he's lonely and here's        LL>> a good-looking lady throwing herself at him. He's a man."               BK>> IOW, it's only sinning when you're not lonely?               LL>> Of course. Do keep in mind that Pat Robertson and his        LL>> future wife had a child out of wedlock, as revealed to the        LL>> world when he ran for president. You do remember that,        LL>> don't you? Don't you? I know you do. And if you don't,        LL>> here's a reminder -              BK>Yes, I remember. But he wasn't as holy then.              Like Jesse Jackson, he was a "disseminator of public information."       What a strange year that was. Three preachers running for president.       Jesse Jackson, Pat Robertson, and Walter Mondale. And look who won.       God himself, Ronald Reagan.               LL>> Did you hear Pat Robertson whining like Jimmy Swaggert "I        LL>> have sinned!" No way! Pat Robertson is perfect! Not like        LL>> those other preachers and politicians who cannot keep their        LL>> pants unzipped...               BK>> He's a man is an excuse many men have used? "I'm just a man        BK>> after all".               LL>> That's right! The Bill Clinton excuse! And why people        LL>> forgave him!              BK>Like I said, 90% of the men wanted to do what he did, and half       BK>the women wanted to be the woman he did it with.              Bill Clinton left office with the highest approval rating in       American history, even higher than Ronald Reagan. And if he were       to run again, he would win. Regardless of who his opponent(s)       might be.              Not that I expect Bill Clinton to be that foolish. After all,       his wife wants the job, and will not be denied ...              --Lee              --- MesNews/1.06.00.00-gb        * Origin: news://felten.yi.org (2:203/2)    |
