Really? What about the thousands who are members of the Christian Coalition or who watch "The 700 Club" nightly?
"Thousands" is about it too. Not much clout there. But lets give the media's assassination attempt request a pass though. Saddam was in office whenever they said it.
Robertson's rhetoric plays write into the hands of anti-American propagandists abroad.
Much like Cindy Sheehan's "the USA isn't worth fighting for, Bush is the biggest terrorist on earth" media driven bilge or Newsweek making up a story about US soldiers pissing on the Koran? But everybody takes aim at a tv preacher
I understand your point PK but the vast majority of people take him about as serious as Al Sharpton. What they claim to be and what they are are two different things. And it's so obvious too. Yet the same "hawks" who begged for somebody to waste Saddam are shocked that a tv preacher with less viewers than CNN calls for the same thing only his is directed toward another dictator. To me that is the hypocrisy here.
