James Dobson, one of the nation's most politically influential evangelical Christians, made it clear in a message to friends this week he will not support Republican presidential hopeful Fred Thompson.

In a private e-mail obtained Wednesday by The Associated Press, Dobson accuses the former Tennessee senator and actor of being weak on the campaign trail and wrong on issues dear to social conservatives.

I kind of wish Dobson would focus on his own damn family.

When will these people get over the Falwell Syndrome which has infected our political system with ignorant, out-dated, lopsided religious beliefs? There is a reason for separating the church and state, and one could only wish these people would look at the Middle East and figure it out!

These Christians have no sense of shame. Good old fashioned healthy shame. They are what Jesus called "whited sepulchers".

Dobson's great, and right.

But, ultimately, I'll vote for whoever runs against Hillary or Obama.

Just as you'll vote for whichever of those two wins the nomination.

See how that works?

Apostrophes became question marks, odd little huffington server typos. [?]
once again:

Dobson is interested in two things only:
- A constitutional amendment banning gay marriage
- Overturning Roe v Wade.

That is his Jesus in a nutshell.

It is cash cow, his endless war. And winning would be very bad for business.

For him those two impasse issues are the Limousine he has been riding for years and will go on until the sun sets on his Jesus.

I am a Christian. Dobson is a politician.

He has two faces. I would say give him two hats.
One he can wear when he telling the world what God says.
Call it the Churchy hat.
And the other he can put on, when he is, wink, talking as a private citizen.
Call it the IRS hat.

All summer long my wife and I were as healthy as the proverbial horse.
The kids are back in school and ZAP she's had two colds and I am on my first. Shit!!!!
Maybe I should blame the "duskies" for my problems like Bicky-Boo blames his "duskies" for everything he deems bad for him.
Nah! Can't do it!! That would be acting like an ignorant troll.
Wait troll is a word like ....unique...it requires no qualifier.

Bin Laden is calling for a Jihad to take over Pakistan according to the news. The video was released on the Internet. See what happens when mass media is connected to religion.

Pakistan has lots of nukes, too. Bush has done a hecka a job in "getting the guys who did 9-11." I think the posse turned south to Iraq after Rumsfeld outsourced the Bin Laden hit to the opium dealers who let him slip out the back in hole-in-the-wall aka Tora Bora.

Religion is so fun. Maybe Dobson should rip off that phony robe and grab a M-16 and go after Bin Laden.

OBL has an eight year video deal with Bushco.

He is safe as long as he lives up to the delivery schedule.

And just when the American election season is heating up.

The GOP has a direct line to old Bin Forgotten.

James Dobson on how to be sure you raise hetero children. I for one would be sure to keep my children far from his reach.
***************
"Meanwhile, the boy's father has to do his part. He needs to mirror and affirm his son's maleness. He can play rough-and-tumble games with his son, in ways that are decidedly different from the games he would play with a little girl. He can help his son learn to throw and catch a ball. He can teach him to pound a square wooden peg into a square hole in a pegboard.

He can even take his son with him into the shower, where the boy cannot help but notice that Dad has a penis, just like his, only bigger."

"Who knew the cure for homosexuality was as simple as a game of catch and showers with Dad?"

That a fraud like Dobson or any other religious liar should be influential in the USA is disgusting and unforgivable.
For fuck's sake reform your 'educational system' and stop accrediting places like Liberty U!!!!!

I PRAY FOR THE DAY WHEN 'MINISTERS' RETURN TO
THEIR FIRST LOVE (THAT'S BIBLE-TALK).EVERYBODY
LAUGHS ABOUT THE 'WHAT-WOULD-JESUS-DO' LINES.
BUT FOR THOSE RIGHT-WING PREACHERS & THEIR
'HEAD-IN-THE-SAND' FOLLOWERS, MAYBE THEY SHOULD GO BACK TO THE BASICS OF CHRISTIANITY!
FEEDING THE POOR, HEALING THE SICK, JUDGE-NOT
LEST YE BE JUDGED, 'BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS', RENDER-UNTO-CEASAR-WHAT-IS-CEASARS AND UNTO-GOD-THAT-WHICH-IS-GODS'. IF THE TRULY 'SPIRITUAL' (I HATE THE WORD
'RELIGIOUS' ...ANYONE CAN BE 'RELIGIOUS') WOULD STICK TO LEADING US TO SALVATION & SPIRITUALITY & DOING GOOD TO OUR FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS, AND LEAVE THE GOVERNANCE OF OUR COUNTRY TO THOSE WHO ARE BOTH 'COMPETANT' AND 'MOTIVATED'. I WISH THE EXTREME RIGHT WINGERS WOULD STOP INSINUATING THAT DEMOCRATS ARE IMMORAL & UN-CHRISTIAN OR UN-JEWISH OR
UN-WHATEVER!
FOR THOSE SELF-RIGHTEOUS PREACHERS, HAVE YOU
EVER HEARD THIS SCRIPTURE? 'FOR GOD IS NOT MOCKED, WHATSOEVER A MAN SOWETH, THAT ALSO,
SHALL HE REAP'. 2008 SHALL BE THE YEAR THE REPUBLICANS WILL REAP WHAT THEY HAVE SOWED!
I THANK GOD FOR THAT.
AS FOR THOMPSON...BRING HIM ON!

OH YEAH, AT LAST COUNT, 3792 DEAD!
