A couple of rules about Pat:

1) He ALWAYS apologizes the next day, sometimes on the same day, if it's real real bad and it's clear to him that his revenue stream is in danger. This is like a dog that constantly pees on the rug. You know the dog is sorry, so you forgive the dog, and the moment you do, it interprets your forgiveness as permission to do it again. The difference is, eventually the dog might learn NOT to pee on the rug.
With Pat, seeking forgiveness gives him license to wait till the next great tragedy and another opportunity for him to sink his fangs into the bodies of the suffering.

2) Pat will sometimes forget stark historical realities.
No, wait a minute, I must be insane for thinking that.
In order for that logic to work vis a vis his latest attack,
(the deal with the devil to be rid of the French thing)he would want us to believe that French rule was benign, either that or that French slavery was "God's work", or he's counting on all of us to be so damned ignorant that we don't realize that the Haitians were SLAVES who, like most good God fearing people, yearned to be FREE.

Yes, that's it, he's counting on our ignorance.

But after all, it's OUR ignorance that constitutes the reason he still gets enough money to maintain his media pulpit.
