Robertson Blames Hurricane on Choice of Ellen Degeneres to Host Emmys Posted Saturday, September 17, 2005 9/17/2005 08:44:00 PM

In a follow-up to my previous articles on hurricane Katrina and Pat Robertson (here and here) is this article in the prestigious news site Dateline: Hollywood. According to the article Robertson is now blaming Katrina on the choice of Ellen Degeneres to host the Emmy Awards. He has a point this time... he notes that last time Degeneres was chosen to host the Emmys, in 2001, the September 11 terrorism attacks took place shortly before the ceremony. We all know that post hoc ergo propter hoc (after this therefore because of this) is one of the most profound logical arguments known to man.

By the way in case you don't get it Dateline: Hollywood is a satire site. Apparently many people didn't get it. But I really don't blame them with Pat's track record. If you want to read some of his memorable quotes please look here. Some of the best:

Feminism is a socialist, anti-family, political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians.

Many of those people involved in Adolf Hitler were Satanists, many were homosexuals - the two things seem to go together

I know one man who was impotent who gave AIDS to his wife and the only thing they did was kiss
