Pat Robertson

I keep reading about Pat Robertson's fatwa against the democratically elected leader of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez. And it's all well and good that Robertson's call for assassination is creating a shitstorm. But I have to ask: what will happen next?

I'm guessing that Robertson will either issue a tearful non-apologetic apology for how his words were misunderstood, or that he will just lay low for a while.

But this guy is a thug, and he should be receiving some earthbound retribution for his evil words and actions. Maybe The 700 Club and the CBC needs to be sued for inciting violence or Robertson needs to be arrested for soliciting a murder.

I suspect, however, that he will weasel out of this circumstance
