James Dobson accuses Barack Obama of “distorting the Bible.”
My, my. And here I was thinking that Obama was running for Commander-in-Chief, not for Pastor-in-Chief.
That’s one.
Two is, look who’s talking here? Dobson, the man who preaches intolerance and hatred himself accuses someone else of distorting the Bible. That’s ironic.
PoliGazette Comments Policy
PoliGazette encourages comments from all viewpoints, especially those that disagree.
Comments submitted must, however, adhere to the following standards. Comments that violate
these standards may be edited or deleted without notice at the sole discretion of the editors.
Commenters who repeatedly or egregiously violate these standards or who attempt to argue
publicly with editors regarding the comments policy may be banned from commenting further.
(1) Comments should address the substantive content of the post. Comments that repeatedly
or blatantly misrepresent the content of the post or of others' comments are not welcome. Comments that
respond to something other than which the contributor or commenter may have said are irrelevant and should
not be posted.
(2) Comments should avoid vulgarity as well as racial, ethnic, religious, or sexual bigotry.
(3) Comments should not personally attack the character, personal integrity, or professional
reputation of any PoliGazette contributor or of other commenters.
(4) Comments should reflect the contributions of the commenters themselves and should not
include extensive cut-and-paste reproductions of others' words except insofar as necessary to supplement
the commenter's own arguments. Link spam, trackback spam, and propaganda spam will be instantly deleted.
(5) Public figures are considered open to all substantive criticism of their policies and statements.
Comments that present objectively false factual information about public figures (i.e. "Obama is a Muslim") or
that attack public figures by attacking their families are not welcome. Comments that merely repeat
slogans for or against a candidate without engaging in substantive comment are not welcome.
Questions or challenges to these policies or their application should be directed to the editors
by email only.

Heh. Is Leviticus not the first place conservative Christians point when making their case against homosexuality?
Declaring something to be bad, wrong, or immoral is not the same thing as preaching hatred or intolerance…unless your definition of "tolerance" includes avoiding all criticism of others.
And while Senator Obama may not be a minister, as someone who may well be President isn’t it a good idea to review his moral/religious beliefs to determine how he might govern?
