3. That seems to be Pat Robertson's MO and of course what....
...Pat Robertson says, does or invokes in front of his TV audience is repeated and reinforced over and over again by his loyal and often many mindless followers, well beyond any retraction which Robertson does. In this case Robertson only apologized for his comments, but made no retraction. In fact along with his apology, he continued to justify and excuse what he said and in effect neutralizing the whole apology. The 700 Club's members for the most part still agree with and believe Robertson's original statement and will continue to bear ill will and hostility toward the target of Robertson's comment.

As far as Pat Robertson is concerned, it's "Mission Accomplished" and the millions of dollars of donations just keep rolling in. An IRS audit would be a good first step to begin the investigations.
