Dubya Gets Bombed by . . . Pat Robertson?

Many sources (I've seen it in USA Today and the Charleston Gazette) are reporting that televangelist Pat Robertson warned Dubya of the risk of U.S. casualties prior to the invasion of Iraq. Dubya's response, according to Robertson, was "Oh, no, we're not going to have any casualties." Dubya's handlers, of course, deny he said any such thing and allege that Robertson misheard or misunderstood. I am loath to give Robertson any credibility given his prior idiot statements (the ACLU caused 9/11, remember?), but that statement from Dubya fits in pretty well with his current inability to realistically assess the situation in Iraq. If true, it's just another reason to vote Dubya out next month.
