4:41Now Playing"Television evangelist and ultraconservative Pat Robertson doesn't think General David Petraeus should be condemned for his affair with writer Paula Broadwell. After all, she is "an extremely good looking woman" and "he's a man."
Robertson excused CIA Director Petraeus for the extramarital affair with his biographer, Broadwell, on Monday's episode of "The 700 Club," the flagship program of the Christian Broadcasting Network.
"Who knows?" he said. "The man's off in a foreign land and he's lonely and here's a good looking lady throwing herself at him. I mean, he's a man."*
Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian breaks down what evangelist/weird grandpa Robertson has to say, calling back to past comments that haven't exactly been favorable or fair toward women. Jayar Jackson offers his own take.
