Pat Robertson - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site Robertson's ties to the Republican Party, especially his failed bid to be that party's candidate in the 1988 presidential election, have led to charges of partisanship. Robertson is proud of his family history and has traced his family to such ancestors as governor of Virginia and signer of the Declaration of Independence Benjamin Harrison V, and United States presidents, William Henry Harrison and Benjamin Harrison VI. Robertson is also founder and president of the American Center for Law and Justice, a public interest law firm and education group that defends the First Amendment rights of people of faith, holding the view that separation of church and state is superseded by an individual's right to worship as he or she chooses. www.factbug.org /cgi-bin/a.cgi?a=49908   (2003 words)

Pat Robertson Robertson has referred repeatedly to his time "in combat" in Korea, but years later Indiana Congressman Pete McCloskey, who also served in Korea, remembered hearing Robertson brag that his father, the Senator, "had gotten him out of combat duty" and that Robertson had done his clerical work in a quiet administrative office. Robertson said he and his wife had always celebrate their anniversary in March, on his own birthday, "because our son was conceived that day." In more recent public biographies, Robertson's wedding date is listed correctly, but now his firstborn son is frequently listed as having been born in 1955. Robertson was ADC's founder and sole stockholder, and he had a close working relationship with Zaire's brutal dictator, Mobutu Sese Seko. www.nndb.com /people/552/000022486   (1293 words)

Roberson, Pat Marion Gordon (Pat) Robertson is the leading religious broadcaster in the U.S. His success has made him not only a television celebrity, but a successful media owner, a well known philanthropist and a respected Conservative spokesman. Robertson brought his family to Portsmouth Virginia in November 1959, with only $70 in his pocket, and a year later bought a $500,000 bankrupt UHF station in Portsmouth for a mere $37,000. Robertson was the first religious broadcaster to understand the importance of having his programs carried on a satellite transponder so that they could be down-loaded to the nation's 600, rising to 800, cable television systems, coast-to-coast. www.museum.tv /archives/etv/R/htmlR/robertsonpa/robersonpa.htm   (893 words)

Hinduism Today | Jul 1995 Robertson was already a well-known figure in the conservative Christian community when his 1988 bid for the US presidency shot him into national attention and effectively anointed him leader of the Christian right wing. Robertson and his son are found in the midst of the scene, observing and mocking the early morning prayers of Hindus. Robertson and the Coalition are probably the single most effective Christian voice in American politics today, as demonstrated by their recent demands to Congress for a "Contract with the American Family," including "voluntary [ie, Christian] prayer in public schools"-something presently forbidden by law. www.hinduismtoday.com /archives/1995/7/1995-7-04.shtml   (3305 words)

Pat Robertson's Katrina Cash Robertson recently ignited a media firestorm when he called for the assassination of Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez during a broadcast of The 700 Club.

Roberts Jr.'s confirmation as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. www.thenation.com /doc/20050919/blumenthal   (1435 words)

Where goes Pat Robertson’s network after Pat? Robertson’s various ventures became successful in large part because of his charisma and talent, said John Green, a University of Akron scholar who studies the religious right. Gordon is also the founder and president of the Asian Center for Missions, a nonprofit group based in the Philippines that trains Asians as missionaries. Gordon’s high profile is a clear sign he is being groomed as Robertson’s successor, said Mark Rozell, who has watched the religious right as a professor of politics at Catholic University of America. www.religionnewsblog.com /3297/where-goes-pat-robertsons-network-after-pat   (1199 words)

Robertson, 60, is currently the managing director of Remote Marine Systems in Malton, North Yorkshire.

CHRISTIAN PAT ROBERTSON DENOUNCES HINDUISM AS "DEMONIC" Although Robertson mentions the naturally deep devotion of the Hindus, he apparently fails to appreciate that any religious preacher in India gets the same reception, whether Christian, Hindu, Jain, Sikh or Buddhist -- though it does help to be white, American, famous and rich. Robertson and the Coalition are probably the single most effective Christian voice in American politics today, as demonstrated by their recent demands to Congress for a "Contract with the American Family," including "voluntary [ie, Christian] prayer in public schools" -- something presently forbidden by law. Pat Robertson is a disgrace to the Christian community. www.sullivan-county.com /news/pat_quotes/hindus.htm   (3680 words)

Media Matters - Falwell, Gordon Robertson repeat false information on judicial nominations Robertson also claimed that "for the first time in the Senate's history the Democrats are using the filibuster rules to block judicial nominations." While it may be the first time Democrats are using the filibuster against judicial nominations, it is not a "brand new" phenomenon. The claim by Robertson, son of 700 Club host and Christian Coalition of America founder Rev. Pat Robertson, that use of the filibuster against judicial nominees is "brand new" and has "never happened before" is false. Falwell and Robertson would be in the mob wating to lynch Jesus. mediamatters.org /items/200504280003?offset=20   (2390 words)
