Good Lord, that's heavy

And we quote:

Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson says he has leg-pressed 2,000 pounds, but some say he'd be in a pretty tough spot if he tried.

The "700 Club" host's feat of strength is recounted on the Web site of his Christian Broadcasting Network, in a posting headlined "How Pat Robertson Leg Pressed 2,000 Pounds."

Then they add this little nugget:

According to the CBN Web site, Robertson worked his way up to lifting a ton with the help of his physician, who is not named.

Hello? His god damn doctor is Jesus, obviously.

"Where in the world did Robertson even find a machine that could hold 2,000 pounds at one time?" Travis asked.

Are you saying that the man who turned water into wine can't find a machine that holds 2,000 pounds?

One of the photos Vasko released had a digital date stamp of 1994, although she said Robertson performed the leg press in 2003. Vasko said that perhaps the date was not set properly on the camera.

Hey, the answering machine in our office always thinks it's Sunday at 1pm.



The Story

Inbetween leg presses, Pat managed to interview David Horowitz author of a new book called The Professors: The 101 Most Dangerous Academics in America.

A nice quote from Horowitz:
I estimate that there are 50,000 to 60,000 radical professors who want the terrorists to win and us to lose the war on terror. They regard the terrorists as freedom fighters and America is an imperialist power that oppresses third-world people, and we are the root cause of the attacks on us.

That is because the left got a blacklist in place 20 years ago. It is ruthless and will exclude libertarians and believing Christians and, of course, conservatives, generally. It has been in place 20-25 years. So there is just a dwindling number of conservatives left on the faculties.
