OMG have you seen the latest Pat Robertson rant? "Awful looking women" to blame for bad marriages!

You can't make this stuff up. It looks like it's out of a parody. It could be on the Onion without making any changes!

A kid writes into the show asking what he can do to prevent his parents from splitting up, and he goes into this rant about how women are to blame for bad marriages because they are overweight, wear bad clothes... Unbelieveable!

You know, same guy who says hurricanes and other natural disasters are caused by gays? Hell, if I thought lesbians could control the weather, I'd sign up.

Only because he brokered some deal with ABC Family to keep putting him on.

"there is nothing you can do to prevent your parents from splitting up."

To say anything else to a kid is to tell him or her that they are at fault if they somehow prevent the parents' divorce.

If men want their wife to look like Barbie, they have an obligation to try and look like Ken.

That was the rambling response of a confused brain, if I've ever heard one.
