Limerick Ode To Pat Robertson, Marriage Counselor

Pat Robertson can always be counted on to say weird things and give bad advice. Yesterday’s “700 Club” TV broadcast was no exception.

In response to a spurned wife’s question, Robertson essentially said that a man strays because he’s a man. And that instead of focusing on spousal cheating, a wife should make the house so enticing that her husband doesn’t want to stray.

Pat counsels spurned wives to appreciate the positive:

“Does he provide a home for you to live in,” Robertson said. ‘Does he provide food for you to eat? Does he provide clothes for you to wear? Is he nice to the children… Is he handsome?”

Limerick Ode To Pat Robertson, Marriage Counselor
By Madeleine Begun Kane

Dear gals, if your husband has strayed,
There’s no need to feel mad and betrayed:
Be grateful instead
That he pays for your bed.
That’s Pat Robertson’s notion of aid.

    Pat’s woman, can you understand her?
    Her husband is prone to philander.
    But she stays in his bed
    ’cause he plays with her head.
    She’s vulnerable to his pander.

  2. JulesPaige says:

    Double standards are the rule
    especially if you are a fool
    education notwithstanding
    The man that is ‘demanding’
    more than his own wife, is a mule
