Christian conservative and "700 Club" televangelist Pat Robertson today endorsed former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani for President.
No, we're not kidding.
Apparently Robertson has a more forgiving heart that we imagined. After all, he has to forgive Rudy's three marriages, messy divorces, and left-of-center positions on gay rights, gun control and abortion. That's a lot of forgiving of a lot of key issues, especially for a guy like Robertson.
But stay tuned: There's bound to be some fallout on the Christian Right about this endorsement.

As with the "Values Voters Summit," the question is posed:
What's more important, power or principle?
Big surprise, it's power.
In the end, we are men and women. Regardless of political orientation and personal philosophy, we are vulnerable. As we consider our common humanity, we are struck by what unites us far more than what splits us apart. In the case of Robertson and Giuliani, we are talking about prostate cancer. The two chose different prostate cancer treatments: Dr. Robertson had prostate cancer surgery. Rudy Giuliani had prostate brachytherapy. Any man can have prostate problems. As these two prominent Americans have shown, be it by prostate removal or prostate cancer radiation treatments, you can beat prostate cancer, the most common cancer of men. When we work together, with the sensitivity and compassion that all patients deserve, everybody wins. These two men understand that.
I am prost(r)ate with gratitude for that link farm response.
