Farrakan is no crazier than Pat Robertson
Louie is the distraction of the day-Hannity is obsessing on him.

But does he have a problem when the GOP associates with nutjob Pat Robertson, who wrote the anti-semitic conspiracy book 'end of times?"

or who claimed god gave him the power to turn away hurricanes?
or who claimed that he had a vision from god telling himthat terrorists were going to nuke norfolk within a month (as he did on hannity's show)?

so he tells an asisnine story about a UFO-but is it really nuttier than any belief that dobson, falwell, or marion 'pat' robertson hold?

Farrakan is an ass, but so are the "christian" right. We need to stop furthering this double-standard and call it for what it is.

The difference is that most dems don't hold louie in high regard, but marion, jerry, and dobson are enbedded into the GOP.

2. my point exactly
why does hannity harp on louie all day, but then turns around and lets pat make 'ms cleo' predictions on his show.

at least we see louie for the nut he is (sadly, clinton doesn't, but who gives a shit about bush's boating pal?) the gop has embraced its nutjobs and allows them slots at the convention

4. Funny thing, I heard someone talking on TV today but didn't see who
it was and thought to myself my what a nice, gentle voice that guy talking on tv has. Looked up, it was Farrakan.

16. Pat's not crazy
He's a liar, a common con man, probably a sociopath.
