Pat Robertson: Archie Bunker with money.

When you think of Jewish people, you think of successful businessmen. You think of people that are very wise in finance and who are prosperous. And when you think of poor countries around the world, you'd never would consider the nation of Israel...

It shocks people to hear that there's poverty in Israel. We assume Jewish people are very thrifty, extraordinarily good business people. There shouldn't be poverty there. What's the story?...

You know, I'm again in stunned disbelief. How could it possibly be that a country as rich as Israel can have this problem?...


Robertson is to pig-ignorance what Dylan and Neil Young are to rock -- every time you think he must be too old to deliver any more classic work, he surprises you and produces a real gem.
