This is strange. Last week, I posted some info on PETA since they are HQ'd here and my newspaper covers them. So now this. Pat Robertson is from here (Virginia Beach, where he broadcasts from) so we cover this nutbag too. What's up with the freaks in my backyard? Anyhoo, the plane was leased to a seperate company that handles charters. No one on board was associated with ol' Pat. 3 passengers escaped unharmed. It was the pilot and copilot that died, sadly.
But while we're talking about Robertson, the regular pipeline of ridiculousness just doesn't stop. Last week, his website put up the claim that ... drum roll please ... Pat can leg-press 2,000 pounds! That's right, 1 TON! I guess we can say all that holy spirit must be going right to his thighs. ;-)
