Nutjobs never sleep.

"Christian" cult leader James Dobson's Focus on the (white suburban) Family is already trying to cash in on Barack Obama being elected President of the United States.  Not waiting to even let him serve one day in office, they have started attacking him in a fundraising email and are already comparing him to the Nazis. Info here.

What the fuck is wrong with these people?

Barack Obama is a Christian.  He has elucidated his faith in Jesus Christ many times over.  Just because he does not accept your narrow, strident and WRONG interpretation of Christianity does not mean that his faith in Jesus Christ is lacking in any way.  And even though Dobson is "grieving" for the  our country,  he offers NO repentance for his support of the Bush Administration, an Administration that has done more to undermine the greatness of America than all of our enemies could ever have hoped to do.  His pathetic take on the election is  here.

The attacks of FOTF do not in any way make me question Barack Obama's faith in God.  It only makes me question what FOTF really believes in.

Love is stronger than death.

I don't know what it is about homosexuals that scare fundamentalists so much.  According to Tony Perkins, head of the Family Resource Council, the MOST important issue on the ballot this week is Proposition 8 in California. It's more important than the Presidential election, he says.      Read it here.

Now, I don't what he's been doing but after the last four years but I think the Presidential election is pretty damn important.  George W. Bush has been a disaster for American and religious hacks like Perkins wholeheartedly supported him in 2000 and 2004.  Now that it looks like they'll lose their White House guest passes, they figure the Presidential election is not really that big of a deal.

I have to wonder if any of the thousands of families who lost love ones serving this country in Iraq and Afghanistan think a couple of gay caballeros shacking up and calling it marriage is the most important thing on the ballot.  I wonder if the hundreds of thousands of people put out of work this year think gay marriage is the most important thing they will voting on.  Or how about those millions of people who do not have any form of health insurance?  Do they really care about what whether homosexuals call their unions "civil union" or "marriage"?  Because that's all this issue is about: what we call it.  Both sides of this issue are wrong and it's a waste of taxpayer time and money.  It's also distracting from things that really matter.

There are life and death issues that we need to deal with on a National level and which direction this country goes in depends on this election.  But Tony Perkins, James Dobson and the rest of those who deal in religious fear mongering think that the most important thing we have to deal with is what we call it when two people of the same sex decide to love one another. It's pathetic.  

Perhaps these guys don't know that you're never going to change people through the law.  Read Romans.

You change people through love.  They need to love the gays just a little bit more.  Although if they did that, it's possible that they might just like it a little too much.  Maybe that's what's scaring them.

James Dobson has lost his mind! He thinks he's a nut job from the future.

The ultra right wing fanatic, Dr. James Dobson, has always been a very strident, divisive voice in the Christian community but his Focus on the Family released an imaginary letter that is one of the most idiotic things I have ever seen.  It is supposedly a letter from a Christian in 2012 about all the evils beset upon us by an Obama presidency--as if anyone could be worse than George W. Bush, great personal friend of Dobson, has been.  It lists all the terrible woes that come upon America if Obama were to be elected.  It reads like a bad high school fiction project. 

Obviously, Dr, Dobson and his ilk are not very good at determining who will or will not be a good President because they were against Bill Clinton (who was a pretty good President) and for Dubya (who has been an abject failure).  In fact, if Dr. Dobson were a prophet in the Old Testament, we would have stoned him to death a LONG time ago because he prophecies have time and again proven to be false.

I sure wish this evil doer disguised as an angel of light would go away because his actions turn more people away from the Lord than just about any single person I know of.   This letter is beyond ridiculous and John McCain should denounce it.

Read it here if you can bear the stupidity.
