On Monday night’s Last Word, host Lawrence O’Donnell tried to make sense of a recent Sarah Palin interview with Pat Robertson‘s Christian Broadcasting Network, calling in a little backup in the form of “Sarah Palin translator” Alex Wagner. It’s a tough job, to be sure, but in deciphering Palin’s baffling assessment of the crisis in Egypt, I don’t think they quite nailed it. I’m getting pretty good at this, though, so I’ll happily take a stab at it.

Pat Robertson, founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), appeared on the 700 Club to reveal his annual list of predictions that “the Lord” shared with him. In addition to our country being “in grave peril,” Robertson warned American will be led into bankruptcy and “in two years will come a time of reckoning.” Let the good times roll.

An article on CBN.com that alleges, among other things, that “most of the candy sold during this season has been dedicated and prayed over by witches” has been removed by the site after becoming an object of mockery by The Huffington Post.
