Likely Next Texas Lt. Gov: ‘God Is Speaking To Us’ Through Phil Robertson

Posted by | October 22, 2014 06:47 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics Religion Top Stories


Dan Patrick is a radio station owner and talk show host who became a Texas state senator, and is likely to win the race for Texas lt. governor.

“This is an exciting time for Christians,” Patrick wrote on his Facebook page. “God is speaking to us from the most unlikely voice, Phil Robertson, about God’s Word. God is using pop culture and a highly successful cable TV show to remind us about His teaching.”

“God has used unlikely people in the Bible before to share his Word throughout history,” claimed Patrick. “He is doing it again. Phil’s words will reach more people than any preacher or conservative leader could. It’s clear God is speaking to us and I find it exciting. Click here to support Phil!”

In 2007, Patrick boycotted the Texas Senate’s first Muslim prayer, reported the Houston Chronicle. He walked out during another Muslim prayer in 2012.

Patrick brags about all of his legislation against undocumented immigrants on his campaign website, but the Texas Observer reported in March that he hired an undocumented immigrant when he ran a sports bar in Houston.

In a 2013 commerical …Patrick promised to “secure the border” if he is elected Lt. Governor even though he wouldn’t have that authority.

In 1999 on his radio talk show, Patrick referred to Connie Chung’s TV show “Eye to Eye” as “Slanted Eye to Eye,” reported the Houston Press.

      Letitia van Putte, the Dem candidate is more than better than this jerk. Unfortunately being a dynamic, smart, politically savvy Hispanic female in Texas is not enough to overcome the bigoted bible faction. She could pull this off but she needs historically high turnout in Texas cities to overcome the rural talibagger vote. Sigh.

    “God is speaking to us from the most unlikely voice, Phil Robertson, about God’s Word”

    Just like you can get a good education in Mississippi, or racism is dead, or rove is a truth seeking sage, or Ferguson police believe in fair treatment to all their citizens…..

    If he had stated that Thor was speaking to us through Spongebob Squarepants, all mythical characters – we would have him committed.

      Wait, SpongeBob isn’t real? Color me crushed.

    Ignorant rural backwards Texans love their hateful bigoted christian politicians that want to turn Texas into a theocracy. It’s a thing here in Texas, sad, very sad.

    “Slanted eye to eye”?
    Totally not racist, of course.

      That Duck Dynasty dude.

        Oh yeah – the guy that looks like an amber alert waiting to happen. I remember him.

      Guy with a long beard who took a very very young wife and says religious things.

      Or was that Mohammed?

    • Larry Schmitt October 22nd, 2014 at 12:19

      A so-called “reality” show, Duck Dynasty, on A & E. That used to stand for Arts & Entertainment, but they haven’t had either for years.

      • androgyne anode October 22nd, 2014 at 12:29

        I remember him now.

    Why is it that god only speaks through the bat-shit crazies among us?

      Only Joan of Arc knows.

    • Larry Schmitt October 22nd, 2014 at 12:37

      For the same reason that UFO’s only visit knuckle draggers in Arkansas. Because they don’t really exist.

    Mr Patrick Isis called, they’re interested
    Thing about religion, you can’t prove he’s wrong. No one knows, unless of course you know the mind of his god.
    This is why I could never ever vote for someone like this no matter what letter they have behind their name. Crazy sob’s

    Got atheism?

    Texas is ‘ground zero’ for crazies elected to public office. Don’t worry, it will just get worse. The Citizens United ruling by the SCOTUS will enable even more dark money to pour into that state. Kim Jong Un could be elected if he had an (R) behind his name on a Texas ballot.
