According to man named Phillip Busch, Pat Robertson told him that he would kill him and his family

Edited on Fri Feb-09-07 10:38 PM by ck4829

One of Hampton Roads' highest-profile Christians stands accused of a not-so-Christian act.

A plaintiff in a federal lawsuit against Pat Robertson says the televangelist threatened his life and that of his family at a legal proceeding Wednesday in the Norfolk federal courthouse.

The accuser, Phillip Busch, is suing Robertson for misappropriation of his image in the promotion of Robertson's protein diet shake.

According to a complaint Busch filed with the Norfolk police, Robertson entered a room in the courthouse Wednesday afternoon to be questioned for a deposition - an out-of-court form of testimony - and told Busch: "I am going to kill you and your family."

1. Wellllly, welllllly, wellllllly...

Amazing that God didn't allow Robertson to foresee this coming, huh?

As for me, I foresee a pink slip from the 700 club and a niiiiiiice long fishing trip for Pat in the very near future....

5. For a supposed Christian, Robertson sure has a one-track mind.

I feel for the waiter who gets his order wrong. They're next!

Now in three flavors--loaves and fishes, frankincense, and myrrh! Guaranteed results--just THINKING about them takes your appetite away!

But seriously, folks, I hope Busch has another witness besides Robertson's lawyer. He says, "There was no SUCH threat," but that's NOT exactly the same as "He didn't say it," is it? Is he giving us legal doubletalk for "He actually DID say it, but didn't MEAN it as a threat?"
