Holy Weather Report, Batman!

Sploid: Robertson: 'God's gonna pummel the coasts': "[And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?]

Professional hate-monger Pat Robertson has warned his television audience that furious storms are going to devastate America's coasts this year.

'If I heard the Lord right about 2006, the coasts of America will be lashed by storms,' Robertson announced on Wednesday's broadcast of the 700 Club. 'There well may be something as bad as a tsunami in the Pacific Northwest.'

If past truly is prologue, Robertson is likely praying for such a horrifying disaster. Last summer, as Hurricane Katrina laid waste to New Orleans, Robertson's 'Operation Rescue' was second on the once-secular American government's list of charities for Americans to send money to. Only the Red Cross was listed before Robertson.

Operation Rescue's board is loaded with Robertson's immediate family, with Marion Gordon Robertson -- Robertson's real name -- listed as chairman. Pat's wife DeDe is vice president and son Gordon Robertson is also on the board. The whole family reaped the benefits of others' misery, as they have their whole lives.

Hours after SPLOID broke the story of this disgusting arrangement last year -- thanks to a tip from privacy activist Bill Scannell -- FEMA moved Robertson's organization down the list. . ."

Well, uh, gee Pat. The National Weather Service says that there is an unusual warm current in the Atlantic which will probably lead to more hurricanes along the East Coast and Northeast in general. I got my information via DirectTV. How'd you get yours, echoing voices in your head? Cryptic notes slipped into your Bible? Bookmarking Revelations? There couldn't be a financial motive lurking somewhere in all this could there?
