Incredible Lack of Focus

Here’s a good one (via Jesus Politics) from James “Focus on the Family” Dobson, bemoaning how the “liberal Supreme Court judges” “pick and choose the people in countries or continents that agree with them”. Uhhhhh….. sounds familiar James. You mean like what Bush did with Iraq? You mean like “Most of them” (who’s doing the “picking and choosing here” , Jim?”)

Focus Action – Dr. Dobson’s Action Newsletter: April 2005

Kennedy and his liberal colleagues simply pick and choose the people in countries or continents that agree with them, usually from Europe and Canada, and ignore the rest, such as South America, Asia, and Africa. This is what we call “judicial tyranny!” and for good reason.

Dobson, in the process of backing the idea of capital punishement for Juveniles. Dobson shows his disdain for “world opinion” (his quotes, not mine). This kind of goes to the Religious Right’s rebellion against any authority that is not “bribable” or manipulatable (word?) ; so if the Church stands against something, if it’s not in the right-wing political lexicon, then that authority is questioned and campaigns are mounted to discredit that opinion. How ’bout we give them their REAL wishes and EXCOMMUNICATE them?
