'Til Death Us Do....hmmm...I Can't Remember

Well, well, well, it seems that our old friend the Far Right Reverend Pat Robertson has opened his ridiculously inane mouth once again.  Remember he is the one that brought us the "facts" that God sent the Earthquake in Haiti because "their deal with the devil".  Oh yes, and these nuggets:  The gays (especially Ellen DeGeneres) caused Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans AND were the reason the attacks on the World Trade Center happened on 9/11.

Today I read that the Reverend has proclaimed that it is now alright for a Christian to get a divorce if their spouse contracts Alzheimer's Disease.  He states that since marriage is to be "until death do us part", Alzheimer's is a death - the person with the disease is dead inside, so therefore, it is okay for the spouse to divorce them and move on with their lives.

Luckily, my 79 year old daughter never married. Whew! Dodged a bullet on that one!  She doesn't remember what day it is, but I do think she would remember if she were married, because that schlub would be in her room at "camp" everyday!  And if he wasn't, I would have an important part of his anatomy removed.  And if he ever thought of divorcing her...well... I don't know what they would do to him in Iowa, but here in Texas....

I wonder what Nancy Reagan has to say about this.

I don't know, but Betty would say: "That is just awful.  Charles better be glad that he died before me, 'cause if I went Cuckoo, he'd just be stuck with me!'
