Pat Robertson does it Again

This man is insane. Please, to my non-Christian friends and readers, don't judge us by this man.
In this clip, you will witness the 700 Club host blame the struggles of Haiti on a pact that the Haitian people made with the devil.
I couldn't believe it when I saw it. I guess next he'll justify racial inequalities by saying they are a result of demon possession. The nation of Haiti is in the midst of another tragedy, and this man feels the need, at this time, to place blame on the victims. He says "they" got together and made a pact with the devil. Who is "they"? Did all of the people in the entire nation of Haiti come together. Did they call a devil-worshiper's convention and exercise the principals of representative democracy?
How does he draw the conclusion that the Haitians of old were in league with the devil? Were they any more ungodly that the Europeans who raped, pillaged, and exploited them and other brown people around the world?
But then, Robertson is part of the school of thought that believes that America is a holy nation (despite being racist, anti-labor, anti-justice, forsaking the poor and the just rule of law, anti-immigration, anti-environment, anti-equality, anti-youth, anti-aged, anti-women, anti-reality, anti-truth, and basically anti anything in the Bible that doesn't promote the dominant groups of society - wealthy white males) and uses that to justify American dominance.
