Pat Robertson's been unusually quiet lately

With all the wingnuttery and birtherism in the air, you'd think our favorite nutjob would be giving us some real zingers.
or is he getting to old?
did he pass the torch on to a new generation of crazy?

and for the life of me, i can't figure out why the virginia dems aren't using him as an albatross against the gop candidate for governor.

1. They've raised the bar on crazy.

With all the competition, he just doesn't seem that unusual anymore. :shrug:

3. Too sane. Sad but true. Pat is sliding to the left of the "mainstream" cons.

He was paling around with Al Sharpton just months ago.

6. He doesn't believe any of the crap he's been slinging.

If you've ever watched the 700 Club where he remotely senses random viewers' ailments and declares that "God is healing you right now," you just know that he's inwardly thinking what a bunch of suckers they are.

He's probably realized that Bible beating isn't as lucrative as it used to be, so he's opting to take it easy in his remaining years.

7. Gog and Magog must have tied him up

to prevent him from speaking on his good friends the C Street Family.

We can only hope.
