Dobson Commends Palins For 'Living Out Pro-Life Values'

Focus on the Family founder James Dobson (an big supporter of the McCain-Palin ticket) released the following statement on Bristol Palin's pregnancy:

"In the 32-year history of Focus on the Family, we have offered prayer, counseling and resource assistance to tens of thousands of parents and children in the same situation the Palins are now facing. We have always encouraged the parents to love and support their children and always advised the girls to see their pregnancies through, even though there will of course be challenges along the way. That is what the Palins are doing, and they should be commended once again for not just talking about their pro-life and pro-family values, but living them out even in the midst of trying circumstances.

"Being a Christian does not mean you're perfect. Nor does it mean your children are perfect. But it does mean there is forgiveness and restoration when we confess our imperfections to the Lord. I've been the beneficiary of that forgiveness and restoration in my own life countless times, as I'm sure the Palins have.

"The media are already trying to spin this as evidence Gov. Palin is a 'hypocrite,' but all it really means is that she and her family are human. They are in my prayers and those of millions of Americans."

God is saving a special place in hell for hypocrites like Dobson. Just look at his financial records.

Now that Dobson's prayer to the rain gods failed, he's now trying to backtrack on his evangelical teachings?

Is this EVANGELICAL now condoning SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE?

While most Americans do not see sex before marrieage as a major problem, and also advocates safe sex and birth control, EVANGELICALS HAVE ALWAYS SAID THAT THIS WAS A MAJOR SIN.

Now it's a MISTAKE because Palin is involved? ..........­..........­. Does Dobson now have 2 different bibles now from which to identify what he considers to be a SIN? ..........­. One for everyone else and the other for McCain/Palin so that they have a better chance in winning this election?

Sad reality of Abstinence only Education! Rather than being proud that she has refused an abortion , possibly the second opportunity in this family this year, she ought to be disappointed that her daughter lacked the necessary education to avoid this situation in the first place.At 17 what is the statutory rape age for the father?

Living out the values and evidencing the failure.

These "family values battles" are nothing more than the right wing wealthy to take over the Supreme Court for their benefit.

[MadeinAmericaProud]

It is very clear the parents cannot teach their children morals, their religious leaders cannot teach morals to the parents or children of these churches. Therefore, the republican party want to pass their responsibility to the courts of how all Americans should control our morals. The right wing or left are both missing the mark on this family values thing. the constitution is enough guidance, I don't need the supreme court to do more.

We must remember true history, back alley abortion did happen. Having it legal, we are not finding young dead girls in those alleys with the aborted.

Sarah Palin, family and the American people who believed in McCain and crew have been used to raise money. August hauled in $47 million. They will try to hold on to her until the money stop rolling in.

The American money system is designed according to Greenspan not to have a surplus. It is good for us to be in debt. That republican mind set and teaching, look around see the results.

American have millions of available working people. yet we only have available a few hundreds of jobs. The rest are with communist china, india and other countries thanks to our past voting record. .

The fact is that ya'll do your stuff in the dark and with shame and hope you don't get caught....­..While, we FREE folks over here do our thing, in the open mind you, and say if you don't like it Kiss my A$$!!!

Now, which one is more real to you?

Not in fantasy land with you old stooges...­...That is why you relate to McIncompet­ent....and you do know that he is banging his new V.P.....Wh­y is it that Cindy looks so cold, and pissed all the time.....H­mmmmm...so­mething to think about.

Dodson said" The media are already trying to spin this as evidence Gov. Palin is a hypocrite". So are you Dobson!

[GSMRaleigh]

uh...well she is.

[Pat15]

It is beyond belief that this man would utter such non-sense most of the time ..& evangicals buy it .. Sometime you have to wonder where are we heading as a nation ...

[Tobiasism]

Does Dobson promote unwed teens having children?

[crutnacker]

Why does this publicity hound continue to be listened to? He's a f***wit.

[blindjester]

They're not hypocrites because their daughter got pregnant. They're hypocrites because they're ashamed of her.

[Msohio]

Dobson is a hypocrite. We should be living out abstinence values. People will follow any quack just because he attempts to quote a scripture. Why do we women allow men to dictate our conscience or morals?

[MadeinAmericaProud]

Men do not raise children, mother do for thousands of years. There limited education, sound bite TV on how to feed, cloth and educated according to men authors calling themselves doctors pass all this crap on to their male children.

The male children like McCain who still has his mother on the propaganda trail with him says it all.

Until mother stop feeding into outdated methods, just like "We the People still using the 1800s voting process, we will never get a different results doing the same thing for hundreds of years.

That is insane. Mothers get busy teaching your male children to treat women better. It is not men fault they treat women the way they do, if women stopped that mind set when they are boys, They would be better men.

[the964kid]

We know! Thats exactly the problem!

[Trogenhorse]

He forgot to mention he supports having babies unless you're young uneducated with more than 1 child living on welfare, and not a republican. Then he wants them off the system and pull themselves up by the boot straps (without boots because they can't afford them)

[bayside]

Listening to the coverage of wars across the world, it becomes evident that religion is tearing civilization apart! Unquestioned beliefs, ridiculous rites, and man-made rules of living set down by clerics of every religion keep people sequestered in unrelenting cultures since birth, with their minds completely brain-washed to resist any other way of thinking or thinking for themselves­.. Dobson, you prayed for rain on Obama speech, it didnt rain.....T­hink God is trying to tell you something.­.
