Stark Raving Robertson

What does Pat know that we don't? Is he privy to plans to "take out" an associate justice? Or is this just another of his "prophecies" that never come to pass? Lucky for Pat we aren't ruled by OT law, or we'd have to drag his false-prophet ass out for a good stoning.

Media Matters - Robertson: "[B]efore the end of this year there will be another vacancy" on the Supreme Court
From the March 7 broadcast of Christian Broadcasting Network's The 700 Club:

ROBERTSON: The way I understand it is that [Gov.] Haley Barbour [R] is going to sign one in Mississippi that would be comparable to South Dakota. And the whole idea there is to get a couple of the circuits ruling on this matter, because if you have a conflict on the circuits, it guarantees going to the Supreme Court. But it does seem that with the current makeup of the court, they still don't have as many judges as would be needed to overturn Roe. They need one more, and I dare say before the end of this year there will be another vacancy on the court. And this case will be percolating up the line to hit the court maybe in a year or so. So, that's what these governors are doing; they're setting up a challenge. But, it does seem pretty extreme. They don't have and rape or incest exception in there; it's just strictly the life of the mother. So, we'll see what happens.
