Number one Christo-fascist, James Dobson of Focus on the Family, apparently tried to sway the GOP primary voters and released an anti-McCain statement this morning. In my opinion, the man is a hate mongering nut case with a serious case of megalomania. He is anything but Christian and certainly never heard of the saying “pride goes before fall.” His ego would be difficult to contain in the Super Dome. Of course, given Dobson’s hate based religious views, I suspect he would not vote for Jesus Christ if he reappeared and did not subscribe to Dobson hate filled agenda. In any event, here are highlights of his statement via AmericaBlog.com ( http://www.americablog.com/2008/02/religious-right-leader-james-dobson-i.html):
"I am deeply disappointed the Republican Party seems poised to select a nominee who did not support a Constitutional amendment to protect the institution of marriage, voted for embryonic stem-cell research to kill nascent human beings, opposed tax cuts that ended the marriage penalty, has little regard for freedom of speech, organized the Gang of 14 to preserve filibusters in judicial hearings, and has a legendary temper and often uses foul and obscene language.

"I am convinced Sen. McCain is not a conservative, and in fact, has gone out of his way to stick his thumb in the eyes of those who are. He has sounded at times more like a member of the other party. McCain actually considered leaving the GOP caucus in 2001, and approached John Kerry about being Kerry's running mate in 2004. McCain also said publicly that Hillary Clinton would make a good president. Given these and many other concerns, a spoonful of sugar does NOT make the medicine go down. I cannot, and will not, vote for Sen. John McCain, as a matter of conscience.
"But what a sad and melancholy decision this is for me and many other conservatives. Should Sen. McCain capture the nomination as many assume, I believe this general election will offer the worst choices for president in my lifetime. I certainly can't vote for Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama based on their virulently anti-family policy positions. If these are the nominees in November, I simply will not cast a ballot for president for the first time in my life.
