Well maybe this sort of non caring attitude opens you up to complete gullibility when your government spouts off whatever agenda it wants to get you to agree to go to war.
Ignorance is not something to feel smug about.

This is nothing, but a stupid move. I wonder what would happen if Bush started to take "legal actions" against everyone who said Bush should be assasinated?
Actually the government does take very severe legal action against anyone who threatens the president. I think it's a great idea, what better way to make these right wing blowhards like robertson wake up and realize the what the reprocussions of their blathering at the mouth is...a good old fashioned lawsuit. Also it helps protect Chavez because if anything does happen to him, Bush and company will be the first suspects even if (God forbid) they are actually innocent of something for once.

I will bet that if any one of the people responding on this thread went on nationwide television and called for the assasination of George Bush that they would not see the light of day for a long time. It should be the same way with Pat Robertson calling for Chavez's assasination.

On the other side I really don't understand how could someone who marks himself "christian" call to assasinate someone it just shows the true nature of christian right.

How do you figure that? In this case it is only one man not a group of fanitics, hardly representative of the whole christian faith/religion.

Robertson has apologized, and as a good lil' Catholic that Chavez professes to be, he should simply take it or not and move on. He is acting like a pampered hurt lil' child. Chavez is giving all the appearances of being a hypocritical christian, himself....
