You Talkin' To Me?
"Unelected and unaccountable and arrogant and imperious and determined to redesign the culture according to their own biases and values." - James Dobson, describing himself, Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, and their henchmen who are working to eliminate the seperation of Church and State and fulfill their lifelong lust to destroy the infallible work of our Founding Fathers.

Dear Radical Cleric (Dobson)-
So many times I hear you speak and I am forced to look at one of the best documents, the Declaration of Independence.
And I quote:"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
I, as a veteren of this fine country, feel that radicals like yourself should be defined as a "enemy" of our freedoms. Please just shut up. Can't we all just get a long?

This is at the website of the Evangelical Christian Academy. It has apparently gone out to every Colorado member school of the Association for Christian Schools International (there are 74 of them in Colorado). It is entitled "Colorado Legislative Alert" on the main (toplevel) page of the ECA here in Colorado Springs, and that is a link to

>this PDF:
http://ecaeagles.org/COAlertSexualOrientation205.pdf
As you can see from the URL, it is a homophobic rant with detailed instructions on how to pressure your legislator to vote no on any kind of bill of rights for homosexuals. It includes a "Focus on the Family Fact Sheet on Sexual Orientation Bills." You see, giving them rights means infringing on the rights of employers and landlords to fire or evict them on the basis of their sexual orientation. Wouldn't want to infringe on property owner or employer rights, they are usually so put upon by the great hardships of living from the labor of others! (and I say that having been a landlord during a time we were traveling and wanted to keep rather than sell our house - tenants can be a pain in the rear end, especially the really nutty ones, but so can landlords who want to tell you who you can and cannot date...!)
Feel free to spread the URL, and take countermeasures by calling in support of this bill. This is exactly the Dobson kind of approach to erasing the separation between church and education and state, and we have to tell him "no," since for too long people have indulged him in his empire building.
>Dobson and his ilk are, as you know, quite well-organized and militant. Even his own people find him oppressive and controlling (see, among many web offerings, the book, "James Dobson's War on America" by his former radio cohost and right-hand man, Gil Alexander-Moegerle).
Did everybody read the piece by Diane Carman in the Denver Post on Sunday? "Salazar is the One Keeping the Faith"
She got some nice quotes from Focus on the Family spokeswoman Amanda Banks. "The religious right has control of the legislature and the presidency, Banks said. All they need now is the judiciary. The filibuster is all that stands in their way."
No, Jay, I don't think that "live and let live" is in their philosophy once they begin to sense they might be able to get the upper hand. Only when they are clearly the minority do minority rights suddenly become important to them. It's bully behavior, and very disappointing in people who are supposed by so many others to be actual Christians.
Lol, yeah, that quote applies to them much better than judges.
As a Democrat, I consider myself a "person of faith". I believe in the Constitution of the United Sates.
