Rachel Maddow talks to Haitian Ambassador to the United States Raymond Joseph about Pat Robertson's outrageous claim that the earthquake there was a result of a 200 year old "deal with the devil".

As Laffy at The Political Carnival pointed out, it looks like the CBN has removed Robertson's comments from their video embed. Sorry Christian Broadcasting Network, you can edit your video, but that isn't going to keep the public from watching Robertson's extremely offensive statement. Media Matters made sure of that.
