Sunday, on CNN’s Late Edition, they made the mistake of giving Pat Robertson
a larger audience again. This time he used his time in the spotlight to further
taunt Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez.

Robertson made two claims, which are being Venezuela’s vice-President as
irrational. In the first claim, Robertson said that Chavez paid Osama Bin Laden
$1.2 million after the September 11th attacks. In his second claim, he is
accusing Chavez of trying to buy nuclear weapon components from Iran. When asked
where he learned about this information, Robertson said he has anonymous sources
he can not disclose.

Needless to say, the ramblings of “crazy” Pat are putting even further
strains upon United States and Venezuela relations. It now appears that
Robertson is trying to push us into war with Venezuela using some of the same
arguments we heard for the war in Iraq.

The administration needs to come out and denounce all ramblings of Robertson.
In a time where Bush is trying to discredit the allegation that he told middle
east leaders “god told him” to end the tyranny in Iraq, nothing would speak
stronger than a stern denouncement of Robertson’s comments. Further more,
Robertson should be subpoenaed by the Senate intelligence committee and forced
to disclose his sources. He is toying with national security and bordering on an
act of treason. If any reporter was out making these allegations, they would be
expected to answer for it – so why isn’t “crazy” Pat?
