| Well, Barack Obama is way too polite, but I'm not. Dobson lied: Barack Obama said Tuesday that evangelical leader James Dobson was "making stuff up" when he accused the presumed Democratic presidential nominee of distorting the Bible. Dobson used his Focus on the Family radio program to highlight excerpts of a speech Obama gave in June 2006 to the liberal Christian group Call to Renewal. Speaking to reporters on his campaign plane before landing in Los Angeles, Obama said the speech made the argument that people of faith, like himself, "try to translate some of our concerns in a universal language so that we can have an open and vigorous debate rather than having religion divide us." Obama added, "I think you'll see that he was just making stuff up, maybe for his own purposes." Ya think? It's clear that Dobson is a politician through and through. He's political enough to have absolved Newt Gingrich of his many ethical lapses just prior to the presidential campaign. That shows the depths to which Dobson will sink. |
| Zappatero :: Obama: Dobson is a liar |
Dr. James Dobson forgave Newt, yet he won't let Obama - or millions of other Americans for that matter - practice their faith away from his bully pulpit. And he'll shamelessly attack others who dare criticize his methods - a method that included the Doctor fretting about the affects SpongeBob Square Pants on society. He was serious. And who could forget one of Ken Salazar's rare acts of courage in standing up against Dobsie? John Kerry should have stood up to these same kind of attacks four years ago. Barack is doing it now. He has to, it's also good that he's doing it against a perpetual liar who's gotten away with it for far too long. And none of us should be afraid to say it. (made some edits....)
