COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) - As Barack Obama broadens his outreach to
evangelical voters, one of the movement's biggest names, James Dobson,
accuses the likely Democratic presidential nominee of distorting the Bible
and pu****ng a "fruitcake interpretation" of the Constitution.
The criticism, to be aired Tuesday on Dobson's Focus on the Family radio
program, comes shortly after an Obama aide suggested a meeting at the
organization's headquarters here, said Tom Minnery, senior vice president
for government and public policy at Focus on the Family.
The conservative Christian group provided The Associated Press with an
advance copy of the pre-taped radio segment, which runs 18 minutes and
highlights excerpts of a speech Obama gave in June 2006 to the liberal
Christian group Call to Renewal. Obama mentions Dobson in the speech.
"Even if we did have only Christians in our midst, if we expelled every
non-Christian from the United States of America, whose Christianity would
we
teach in the schools?" Obama said. "Would we go with James Dobson's or Al
Sharpton's?" referring to the civil rights leader.

It's good to see that Hussein is as ignorant of the Bible as he is of
economics and foreign policy. Maybe if he didn't spend 20 years in a
hatemonger's church and instead sought out a pastor who actually teaches
the
Bible, he wouldn't make such stupid statements.
