Breakthrough: Pat Roberston discovers cause of huricanes.

Hollywood – Pat Robertson on Sunday said that Hurricane Katrina was God’s way of expressing its anger at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for its selection of Ellen Degeneres to host this year’s Emmy Awards. “By choosing an avowed lesbian for this national event, these Hollywood elites have clearly invited God’s wrath,” Robertson said on “The 700 Club” on Sunday. “Is it any surprise that the Almighty chose to strike at Miss Degeneres’ hometown?”

Robertson also noted that the last time Degeneres hosted the Emmys, in 2001, the September 11 terrorism attacks took place shortly before the ceremony.

“This is the second time in a row that God has invoked a disaster shortly before lesbian Ellen Degeneres hosted the Emmy Awards,” Robertson explained to his approximately one million viewers. “America is waiting for her to apologize for the death and destruction that her sexual deviance has brought onto this great nation.”

12. Except that that "satire" is actually something he would say.
Really. Isn't that sad? There is NO way to satarize these people.

6. Damn! And I thought it was just an act of nature

Silly me! Since Hurricanes happen every year, I thought maybe it was just a really bad storm. Sorry Pat, next time I'll listen to you. Guess I'm just some dumb ol'non fundie liberal. It's good that Robertson is out there to set us straight. No pun intended, btw.

7. It's been debunked by Snopes.

I wouldn't doubt that ol' Pat has thought something like that, though. He just hasn't said it.

11. They nailed it didn't they? Good satire straddles the line
between fiction and fantasy. This was so believable it probably shouldn't have counted as a satire.

15. This man is a freakin' mistake of nature. Surely people can
see how delusional and dangerous he is. There can not possibly be people crazy enough to agree with this bullshit.

God has got to be pissed that this pervert of a man pretends to speak for him.

19. As pointed out many times, with folks like Pat it really is hard to tell
satire from the real thing.

If you want some more satire:
