Dobson: Shooting the Media Messenger

[and-justice-for-all]

Amid allegations that Ted Haggard, president of the National Association of Evangelicals, had a three-year relationship with a gay male prostitute, James Dobson did what he has taken to doing frequently since the media began investigating reports of increasing voter disenchantment with the GOP even among the most conservative voters - and that is to blame the media for trying to keep so-called “values voters” from the polls next week.

"It is unconscionable that the legitimate news media would report a rumor like this based on nothing but one man's accusation. Ted Haggard is a friend of mine and it appears someone is trying to damage his reputation as a way of influencing the outcome of Tuesday's election -- especially the vote on Colorado's marriage-protection amendment -- which Ted strongly supports.”

1. Hmmm - just how GOOD of a friend is Haggard?

Inquiring minds want to know.

2. Haggard and Perkins look like closet cases to me....

...Everytime I look at them my Gaydar goes off.

3. Of course the fact that Haggard himself said not all of the accusations

were without merit, wouldn't of had anything to do with why it was reported. No, it's all a big liberal conspiracy folks, I'll tell ya, we got trouble, right here in River City.

4. Guess Dobson spoke too soon. Ole Ted's been fired for sexual misconduct.

'..."Our investigation and Pastor Haggard's public statements have proven without a doubt that he has committed sexually immoral conduct," the New Life Church's Overseer Board said in a statement. ..."

6. He only bought crystal meth once and a massage from a gay male prostitute.

What's the problem?

9. Really? How MUCH of a Friend, Jim?

Enough for him to try to nefariously seduce you into "the lifestyle"? wink wink nudge nudge?



C'mon. Ever have a beer or two with the guy? Like "friends" do? Maybe you two went fishin'..



You know, on the mountain.

No! Not THAT Mountain!



But, you know, Jim, you're constantly telling us what an evil, tempting world "the gays" have, where they have inserted the hot turgid shaft of their agenda into every sacred, quivering nook and cranny of our society...



how "the agenda" is so pernicious, we must protect our youth, our society, our selves from the influence of their lifestyle at all costs...



Your organization spends most of its time, and money, battling any sort of cultural, legal, societal or corporate recognition of gays and gay relationships.. as if to breech the levies against acceptance of committed gay relationships and families would create a tidal wave, a free-for-all of gay temptation which no presumably "straight" man could resist. After all, freed from societal constraints and biblical dogma, who wants a naked woman when you can have a hot, hard, naked man?...



...right?



...right?



Is it possible that maybe you, yourself have been affected?



"Ted Haggard is a friend of mine".



oh, reaaaaaaaaally?
