Nutcase of the Day: Let's Retire Pat Robertson, for God's Sake

Pat Robertson: Retirement time?
OK, it's time to collect some money, buy a small ice flow and put Pat Robertson on it. He's been batshit crazy for years, but now he's become totally unhinged and even cruel.

His latest target is a wife who won't obey her husband. His solution is to have the couple move to Saudi Arabia and become Muslims so this wimpy alpha male can legally beat her.

Here's part of the story from the Huffington Post this a.m.:

On Monday's broadcast of Robertson's television show "The 700 Club," he answered a question from a viewer named Michael about how to repair his marriage to a woman who "has no respect for me as the head of the house." 

Robertson's response: "Well, you could become a Muslim and you could beat her ... I don’t think we condone wife-beating these days but something has got to be done to make her." He called the woman a "rebellious child" who doesn't want to "submit to any authority." Since the Bible doesn't allow for divorce, Robertson urged the husband to "move to Saudi Arabia," where beating the woman would be permissible.
