Quotable 2 | Robertson is an Embarassment

Open quotation markEvery time he opens his mouth he's an embarrassment to Christianity. 
-- The Rev. Joseph C. Hough Jr.* on Pat Robertson (in 2003).

I would say that Robertson's actions/words have a wider taint than simply embarrassing the whole of one religion. When folks in other countries hear about Robertson, they probably believe that most, if not all, Americans think the same way. And this certainly puts our nation in a poor light.
