Just replace the pot with Jesus dorms! “We did it with video,” Pat Robertson says. Let’s do it with video! All we need to rehabilitate pot smokers is a VHS with some trippy video sequences. Glenn Beck agrees, actually.
The only problem with all of this, of course, is that it would make the Mexicans and the pot-smoking teenagers less scary. We need all the scary things we can get in this country. Because when you’re not scared, you actually take a look at yourself and your surroundings. And that’s a very unproductive, POTHEAD thing to do. [YouTube]

You know… I have more respect for what he says in this video than for a lot of the right-wing bullshit on the so-called "War on Drugs."
I can't believe I just said that about Pat Robertson.
/Don't get me wrong. I don't actually think we need to do anything to "these people". But we'll always be wanting to do something, and if it's a choice between jail and a Jesus-commune I'd plump for the latter.
In jail they fuck you in the ass; in a Jesus-commune they fuck you in the mind.
I think you might be underestimating the buttseks at Jesus communes.
First you, then Negropolis. I've fixed it below – hope you nitpickers are satisfied.
You've never been to a Jesus-commune, have you? The only difference is that at a Jesus-commune they call it "therapy".
Oh, fine – "In jail they only fuck you in the ass; in a Jesus-commune first they fuck you in the mind.
Is that better?
Hey, Mr. Rev Robertson: if you want to do the stoners a favor, just get their trials moved to Montana.
I suppose we found out who was clamouring for the Phish reunion.
The slurry speech, doddling head, non sequiturs, all the symptoms of advanced addiction are there.
Clearly, Pat has taken up a little smoking habit.
You will not be able to see his eyes because of Tea-Shades, but his knuckles will be white from inner tension, and his pants will be crusted with semen from constantly jacking off when he can't find a rape victim. He will stagger and babble when questioned. He will not respect your authority. The Dope Fiend fears nothing. He will attack for no reason, with every weapon at his command — including yours. Beware. Any officer apprehending a suspected marijuana addict should use all necessary force immediately.
"Jesus dorms" …a modern Auschwitz ?
Even toasted on Bubba Kush, Glennnn Beck is not watchable
Guess we'll have to call him Pot Roberston from now on.
Thank you , thank you. I'm here all week.
I always pictured Pat as a mushroom kind of a guy.
Yeah, but galerina autumnalis rather than liberty caps. Or toadstools really, too, also.
Hey, it worked pretty well for John of Patmos,.
Mushroom cloud, maybe.
Decriminalization is a great idea except I am against anything that might make Beck more paranoid.

That comment officially wins the interwebs
I pretty much made up my mind about Mullah Robertson when I was about seven years old. I happened to catch a few minutes of the 700 Club, and I heard him talking about single mothers, how wicked and sinful their lives are and how much they make the baby Jebus cry, etc. I thought, "wait a second, my mom is a single mother, and she is good people."
I'm a bit older now, but I've never really gotten over hearing my mother bashed on TV by a sanctimonious right-wing fraud who pretends to have even the faintest clue as to what my mother and her family have gone through.
That being said, even a stopped clock is right twice a day (for once I kind of sort of agree with him about something.) And he's tied up with Lieberman in the contest for "best Droopy Dog impersonation."
All he needs to say is "ya know what, I'm happy," and he'll get my vote.
"That being said, even a stopped clock is right twice a day"
Well said. It makes me want to spew that it's Pat Robertson offering a saner – not sane, just comparatively saner – alternative than jail time. WTF
Fine. But this is a century clock and it's a digital set on military time. Pat Robertson is, by my count, right exactly once per century.
Oh, but it shows the years as well. Pat Robertson is actually right once, and once only.
And all this time I thought both of these wads were imaginary characters invented to scare kids away from teh DevilWeed.
Wait a minute, you mean this stuff is illegal???
*gets all paranoid*
In fact, Pat is going to officially change the name of The 700 Club to The 420 Club.
Still not as awesome as George Reker's PEN 15 Group.
Both these guys know they make a lot more sense if we're stoned.
Wow, not only is Jesus a "wine-guzzling vagrant," he's a pot-smoking hippie, too! I wouldn't have believed it if it hadn't come from the two people who constantly have him whispering in their ears. (Well, they're definitely hearing somebody's voice in their heads. Could be the dog.)
30 years ago, the "secret sign" of the pot-smoker in the Navy was "hair parted down the middle." One night while I was on watch in Damage Control Central (also the CHief ENGineer's office), a thusly-coiffed sailor had come by for some reason. After he left, the CHENG muttered something about "dope-smoking hippies with their damn hair parted in the middle." I said to the CHENG "But Mr Mac, JESUS parted his hair down the middle!" to which he responded "Yeah, him too."
They always seemed to sleep through scheduled man overboard drills.
I dunno. The last thing we need is obese Americans with the munchies.
Good thing Noah also had two of each kind of weed on the ark. Or maybe one of his sons brought that on board — I'm looking at you Ham. I wonder if they'll include that in the Noah's Ark Ride. Mmmmm, ham …. I'm getting kinda hungry.
Wait, Noah's son was named "Ham"? I thought he was Jewish?
Well, Leviticus is pretty clear about not eatin the Ham.
Ha! The old miser is just thinking of a way to make more munies for himself. If he can get all the grannies and trailer trash fundies hooked on pot he'll clean up by selling his special "Righteous Jesus Weed" to them.
Why should all those evil Messican drug lords make all the big bucks?
"Righteous Jesus Weed"
"Two tokes and you'll think you've been raptured!!"
Aren't you supposed to cue it up to start playing when the show goes from B&W to color? Or am I confusing this with something else?
OK, which of Pat's grandkids just got busted?
The blood diamond industry must be drying up.
It's called diversification.
Does that mean it's now okay to proudly display my Jesus-shaped Holy Water Bong in the nativity scene?
Oh, please say that is a real thing.
I was just reaching for some nachos when the video ended. Pat's tie is so yellow.
Seeing the 700 Crub reminds me I need to call my mom and dad today. I guess it's time to start drinking as well.
Pot heads are scary…just look at t Willy Nelson and Cheech & Chong!
Los Hermanos Rodriguez don't approve of drugs.
Neither do I, but it's Jesus' birthday.
Next thing you know, Beck will be calling for the reintroduction of cocaine into Coca Cola. Original Intent and all that.
Bet your ass there is a payoff somewhere in this wrinkled old fuck's plan. Money is what this turd worships.
Next video I'm expecting to see on Wonkette: Rush Limbaugh Argues for Racial Sensitivity.
Never happen. Rush is from the Missouri Bootheel, a part of Missouri even more backward, bigoted and blighted than the rest of the state. They had plantations there. They'll never forget.
That fucker looks dead.
But we've been so winning this war on pot for that last 50 years.
We the potheads? Totally!
$120 for a qoz of the good is not a win.
That is so not a dime bag. Nor a nickle bag either, also, too.
Now we know what Pat's been smokin' all these years. Beck uses it to cool that first Chrystal meth rush.
America, listen to your Christian leaders. Even though you won't hire convicts, or let them vote, or carry weapons, at least they have God.
While I was watching the PR video I was thinking, "you know what, this is about the pot-smoking Jesus-freak baby boomers who are getting near round retirement age." And that's what it is – more olds who were swingers in the 60's and 70's are retiring and getting scared about death and stuff so they are returning to the church; ol' Pat wants to make sure he gets his piece of the boomer pie.
This makes a lot more sense then me actually having to agree with Pat Robertson.
Minimum mandatory sentencing has been around for quite a few years now, nice to see Robertson is as up-to-date as he normally is.
When did Pat Robertson convert to Rastafarianism?
I'm getting a sneaking conspiracy theory that the old Mexican drug lords and cartels are going to be smoked themselves soon as big corporate money takes over the Mexican trade, also they'll be some last stand for RICO as all the land in California and Oregon gets seized, and then they'll be legalization once the best land is owned and operated by some major corporation; meanwhile the whole tea-party right will find "common ground" with the potheads based on shared "libertarian" values and that's how Sarah Palin will get into the White House.
Wow, I am so stoned that when I watch this video with Pat Robertson he looks and talks like Glen Beck. OMG, what a bad trip.
pot or whatever, … yes or no, … I just want that red leather indoor coat.
Pat, you won't convert the stoners until you convert the communion wafers to Doritos.
When Glenn Beck and Pat Robinson are calling for the legalization of marijuana we are all potheads!
Dude, wheres my 4:20 club??
Right here!
i can't watch 4 minutes of glenn beck.
DID WONKETTE JUST BLOW MY MIND??? Yeah, not so much.
Good media-whores can smell a big new sponsorship opportunity from upwind – & they know when to roll along with public opinion. If the masses decided cannibalism was suddenly kewl, these choads would be pimping a Soylent Green sponsorship faster than you can say "moral deficit."
