Why I Want to Bring Back Public Floggings

1. Pat Robertson - "I'd like to say to the good citizens of Dover: if there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God, you just rejected Him from your city... And don't wonder why He hasn't helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I'm not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that's the case, don't ask for His help because he might not be there."

2. Micheal Brown - still on the federal payroll at his $148,000 annual salary; asked "Can we use these people?" when told that medical equipment people have a 42-foot trailer full of beds, wheelchairs, oxygen concentrators, etc. and were waiting for his direction to go into hurricane ravaged areas.

3. Bill O'Reilly - "If Al Qaeda comes in here and blows you [San Franciscoo] up, we're not going to do anything about it," he continued. "We're going to say, 'look, every other place in America is off limits to you, except San Francisco. You want to blow up the Coit Tower? Go ahead.'"

4. Bill O'Reilly (Again? Imagine that...) - "I don't believe most people who aren't Christian are offended by the words 'Merry Christmas.' I think those people are nuts." When guest Philip Nulman, an advertising and marketing executive, said that using the phrases "Season's Greetings" and "Happy Holidays" does not offend Christians, O'Reilly disagreed. "It absolutely does," he said. "And I know that for a fact."

That's enough for now. I'm starting to twitch.
