God Speaks to Pat Robertson. Again.
In what has become an
annual tradition of prognostications, religious broadcaster Pat Robertson said
Tuesday

that a terrorist attack on the United States would result in "mass killing" late
in 2007.
"There might be a few similarities between Iraq and Vietnam. But there is a difference. ... Vietnam's anti-war movement was so unbearably strident that many Americans hated hippies even more than they hated the war. The result? They became Republicans." --Stephen Colbert
