During a recent telecast of The 700 Club, the world’s oldest living dinosaur host Pat Robertson responded to a viewer’s question by suggesting that the Supreme Court’s Obergefell ruling is merely an opinion that will impact the “couple of people” involved in the case.

The ruling, Robertson insists, would only have a larger impact if Congress or state legislatures pass gay marriage bills:
“In the legal system, party A sues party B over marriage, ‘I want to get married to them,’ and the court says, ‘Okay, you can get married.’ That doesn’t mean that I’ve got to get married to homosexuals, it doesn’t mean that you have to, nor does it mean that it’s the law of the land. Congress didn’t pass any law. Your state legislature didn’t pass a law. So you’re not under anything, it’s a decision of the court having to do with a couple of people. Now they would like to make it bigger than that but, in terms of the Constitution, it isn’t.”

Michael Brantley
They probably told him but he forgot
Brian JC Kneeland
Don’t give this guy any more press!
John Malin
Poor lost old soul, actually thinks anything he has to say is relevent, or even close to the truth.
Cynthia Gilletti
Why is he so concerned with a court ruling that has nothing to do with him? Tend your own garden and see what happens.
Stephen Meeks
Who will rid me of this troublesome “priest?”
Dick Haskamp
Is it just me, or is he sounding and behaving more and more like the ‘Fruitcake Lady’?
Lee Hogan Holden
when is this idiotic old coot finally going to shut up and die?
Erven Cote
what an idiot
Stephen Hulls
We have one of these trolls here in WI and she works at Wisconsin Family Action. Seems anything to do with the fay community Julaine Appling has to put her two cents in.

Am I the only one waiting for a secret male lover of his to come forward?

The dementia must be setting in but how could anybody tell as he’s always been as mad as a cut snake !!
Richard Holaday
Sounds like he needs a good old fashioned lesson in High School Civics ð???
Giancarlo85
He’s a 103 years old. Dementia set in 20 years ago. The man probably doesn’t even know how to tie his shoe laces. Queerty should stop discussing this clown. He serves no real purpose anymore.
Douglas Schlitz
The wacko is at it again .
captainburrito
Just goes to show that gay marriage has affected him so little that he isn’t even aware it is legal. Let him live in his fantasy land.
Kevin White
And we care, why?
Jim Philbrick
Pat remains a moron
Rob Scoundrel
Just hearing his voice makes me wanna punch someone.
Danny Garcia
What a loon!
Skip Mackall
It’s obvious he has dementia

@1EqualityUSA: Of course the republican party as a whole tries to appeal to the rapidly aging religious right (most of the republican party is over the age of 70). The republican party never cares about younger people. Gay people who vote for them are self haters. I just don’t quite get it. Voting for the same party that supports Pat Robertson makes no sense.
Darnell Hill
I’m concerned about People who are not willing to grow and change with the World. Pat Robertson, Isis, Kim Davis are all the same.
Shaun Adams
with all the gun violence and assassinations that happen in the great old US of A no one has killed this guy yet!? come on you “great old” amarican boys, use you amarican “right” to own a gun and use it where it counts!

One can’t tell this bone head anything.

His loved ones should help him

This poor old man! Dementia is terrible! Why are his keepers allowing him on tv?
Ross Nippoldt
According to my version of 2015 Pat Robertson was irrelevant 9 years ago.
Robert Walsh
He wouldn’t remember anyway. He’s still waiting to see if Lindberg made it to France.
Ty Halen
Martin Hladky
What? He’s still alive? Someone please, help him to meet his God.
Robert Zakem
He’s a washed-up has-been who is never going to face reality.
Richard DeFeo
The man is senile and has been for years. I have watched the show recently and he honestly looks half dead. It must take hours to wind him up and they trot him out for his fund raising value. Very cynical way to treat vulnerable listeners who think they are being saved.
Maxie Grant
Why is he still on the air? The 14th Century ended a long time ago.
Ashton Lisby
Ughhhhh

Put a camera and microphone in front of any rest home resident waiting for their next meal and you will hear pretty much the same thing. Once that generation passes, the republican base will be gone and all that will be left are the baggerz.
Curtis McDonald
How much longer will he be able to roam the earth with his ignorance and stupidity?
Kevin J Desmond
Why isn’t he dead yet ??

Alzheimer’s is kicking in…..this guy will end up bottoming in Hell, while Sweet Jesus looks down from above

The only tragic things about Jerry Falwell’s death in 2007 were that it was by natural causes, and that he didn’t take Pat Robertson with him in a violent murder-suicide gay lover pact. I would have paid handsomely for a time share in a condo at that crime scene just so I could make an annual pilgrimage and pay my respects to that hallowed ground.
Robertson is and always has been a walking dog turd. The only good thing I can say about him is that, whenever I see him, it rekindles at least the muscle-memory of my long-gone belief in God. I look at him and reflexively say to myself, “Lord, if you really do exist, please prove it by making this cancer cell in a business suit suffer tenfold the anguish and pain he wishes on the rest of us.
Michael1500
He lost his mind years ago, yet he continues to haunt the set of the 700 Club. I predict that the thing that will finally get him off the set and off the air will not be his loss of cognition—- it has long since left him—- it will be because his ears will finally elongate to such a length that he won’t be able to hold his head up.
youarekiddingme
You know he has all his “minions” writing his scripted answers to these questions and they couldn’t even come up with a “bible verse” to contradict the one that the woman gave in her letter to him. Interesting huh? Perhaps because there is no contradicting verse in the bible…
Truth hurts huh Dickhead?
Mitch Bankston
idiot
CWM85
@tsginamarieva: Yes when will he join his Brother in anti gay religious crusader Jerry Falwell?
Jane Elliott
about time these old guys retired because the world is changing to fast for them to keep up with it all
L Streeter
Look on the bright side, he’s 85-years-old … each day he is one day closer to death. And his relevance, if he ever had any, expired two decades ago. Feel free to ignore him, now if only the media (including Queerty) would just do so.
silveroracle
Not another Bible belter.
I would like to belt him with the Bible because that’s the only purpose is the dam things serve.
Keith Kibler
Just die
robho3
Poor thing who let him out of his assisted living compound?
Wanda Ferguson
He is a lawyer and is giving a lesson in how our laws are made. You are ignorant and are being fooled by our politicians.
GayEGO
Uh duh, Patricia Robertson doesn’t know that Marriage Equality includes same-gender marriages. Oh, does he know that the word gender is related to the sex of a human? :>)
