Robertson: judges worse than 9/11 terrorists

On ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos, Pat Robertson, founder
of Christian Coalition of America and host of the Christian
Broadcasting Network's The 700 Club, defended his comments in his
latest book, Courting Disaster, that Democratic judicial appointments
are the most serious threat America has faced in nearly 400 years.
Robertson also recently announced that God told him, "I will remove
judges from the Supreme Court quickly, and their successors will refuse
to sanction the attacks on religious faith."

From the May 1 broadcast of This Week:

STEPHANOPOULOS: But, sir, you have described this in pretty – this
whole battle in pretty apocalyptic terms. You've said that liberals are
engaged in an all-out assault on Christianity, that Democrats will
appoint judges who don't share our Christian values and will dismantle
Christian culture. And that the out-of-control judiciary – and this
was in your last book, Courting Disaster – is the most serious threat
America has faced in nearly 400 years of history, more serious than Al
Qaeda, more serious than Nazi Germany and Japan, more serious than the
Civil War?

ROBERTSON: George, I really believe that. I think they are destroying
the fabric that holds our nation together. There is an assault on
marriage. There's an assault on human sexuality, as [U.S. Supreme
Court] Judge [Antonin] Scalia said, they've taken sides in the culture
war. And on top of that, if we have a democracy, the democratic
processes should be that we can elect representatives who will share
our point of view and vote those things into law.
