Pat Robertson's Fig Leaf

(2)

Pat Robertson remains in the news! Amazing. ABC had another piece on him tonight. Seems FEMA places his charity, Operation Blessing, second only to the American Red Cross in regard to suggestions for contributions for the benefit of victims of Katrina. This could mean that Robertson's charity will benefit to the tune of millions of dollars. The ABC piece went on to point out that Robertson had been accused of 'misleading statements to solicit contributions for relief operations in Africa,' and that no action was taken against Robertson after he personally reimbursed Operation Blessing a half million dollars for the use of an OB aircraft which was apparently misappropriated. Seems it was used in some way to further Pat's personal African diamond mining operation.

Did I get that right!? Pat Robertson is into African diamond mining? I knew that Pat was a scam artist, but that much of a scam artist?! I am impressed. If the story is anyway near correct then Operation Blessing is Pat Robertson's fig leaf.
