Robertson: Judges Worse than Terrorists
And then there's Pat Robertson, who told George Stephanopoulos recently that "activist" judges are more of a threat to our country than terrorists:
When ABC News' George Stephanopoulos asked him, "How can you say that these judges are a more serious threat than Islamic terrorists who slammed into the World Trade Center?" Robertson replied: "I think the gradual erosion of the consensus that's held our country together is probably more serious than a few bearded terrorists who fly into buildings."
This from E.J. Dionne's column on the Senate filibuster compromise in the Washington Post this morning ("'Watch Those Guys'").
