If you ever doubted that Dr. James Dobson of Focus on the Family was part of the extreme right, all doubt has now been erased.
This morning, I had the extreme displeasure of finding the Focus on the Family broadcast on my radio dial. I heard an interview with a female, and I recognized the voice. It was Ann Coulter.
During the interview, she and Dobson opened their usual bag of tricks, saying that "liberals" (to them, a.k.a. 'Democrats') want to "appease" the terrorists. They said that "liberals" were doing the same thing for Hitler in World War II, and that they want "600-thread count sheets" and "nice music" and "a full eight hours of sleep" for the current detainees at Guantanamo.
So because us "liberals" are against torture, (which really must be a Christian ideal that St. Paul forgot to write down in the Bible,) we must want nice sheets and music for detainees at Guantanamo.
After the taped interview, Dobson talked with his producer about Ann's newest "book" which, with all the plagiarism accusations, really has to be put in quotation marks. He said that Godless is an accurate title because liberals tend to be atheists, adding "not all liberals are atheists, but many are as polls have shown." If you were waiting on specifics on these "polls" you'll be wasting your time.
So Dobson is still blindly supporting the extreme right and the Republican party even after the book Tempting Faith by David Kuo is released. Kuo worked for the Bush administration from 2001 to 2003 as a special assistant to the president and the second-in-command of the Office of Faith-Based Initiatives. Kuo also identifies himself as a "conservative Christian."
In his book, Kuo writes, "National Christian leaders received hugs and smiles in person and then were dismissed behind their backs and described as 'ridiculous,' 'out of control,' and just plain 'goofy.'"
So we have learned that Dr. James Dobson is a tool of the right, a 'ridiculous,' 'out of control,' and 'goofy' tool, and all we can hope is that his sheep will one day see him for the tool he is.
