I cannot be the only one noticing that Obama's "talks" are looking more and more like he is compromising current military strategy and is very possibly becoming a threat to national security…..

So McCain is courting the endorsement of a Bigot? Guess selling your soul to the devil is a valid way to the white house after all.

You children play harsh on the play ground of politics. Name calling, judgement calls, and so much hate. What is in this man that puts fear in us when we talk this trash about anyone, especially the candidates. We as Americans can and are able to articulate without slurs and name calling like children who don't get along. TSK TSK, let play nice.

Good! This levels the playing field. Obama has Wright and McCain has Dobson. Equals even!

Obama threatens everything he believes about the institution of family? HA And McCain having an affair and leaving his first CRIPPLED wife somehow up his place as family man? how laughable is that!!!! God gave us all free will, and if a woman chooses to have an abortion, or if a mn or woam chooses to be Gay, then that is between them and God, and is none of mine…OR OUR GOVERNMENT"S business. I refuse to vote for someone soley on their stance on abortion and gay rights. GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!! I am a Christian, and Dr. Dobson does not spea for me.

P.S.

To Brandon Hillary, and the rest of you "Obama is Muslim ididots" Please make sure you watch Anderson Cooper tonight. Maybe he can shed some light on your ignorance. There is WAY TOO MUCH infofmation on this subject for reasonably intelligent adults to still be promoting that garbage as fact. You all are making this country look cultural inept to every Mulsim in this world. GUESS WHAT… ALL MUSLIMS DO NOT ENGAGE IN TERRORIST ACTIVITY. Just like all African Americans don't eat watermelon, and all white people are not rythmically challenged!!!! OPEN YOUR MIND!!!!!!!!!!

yawn

Do I hear Barrabam again?

Charlatan's like Dobson remind me why I'm an agnostic.

To Richard, Fl…and James Dobson——————————————————————————————-
I was raised in a Baptist Church with learning religion from the Bible, but after these so call Preachers and Priest finish poisoning the word of God and his temples, I guess you will get the pleasure of slandering a lot of us and lie and blame us as you have about Obama, we are Muslim, radical Christian, Socialist atheist religion belief also.

When these so call men of God finish using the Bible to fool the American people into voting for their favor or their own personal agenda, is so pathetic. That's why it's WISE for us to read the Bible for ourselves and let God guide us to have a intelligent mind to see when someone of public influence, think for ourselves.

Since I sense that so many of you think highly of religion and will probably use religion as your reason for voting for McCain, Didn’t Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani both have wives when they were committing adultery, James Dobson? Uh…… Who religion should really be questioned and slandered?

Is this suppose to be news?

THE PREACHER OF HATE AND THE DISLIKE OF ANYONE UNLIKE HIM. BUT HE IS A CHRISTIAN. WHAT A JOKE .

now who is flip flopping. you high and mighty types always think you can point the finger but never have it pointed back at you. this guy is sad.

Well, given enough time… Dobson may change his mind again and support Obama. Anyway, he side he didn't agree with Obama's interpretation of some scripture… I wonder, does he agree with Mitt Romney's interpretation of scripture, who may well end up being McCain's running mate. Really, what's up with this guy?

Church and state must be kept separate!

I cannot trust anything this man espouses because he has a basic problem with honesty.

He cannot even admit that he's balding! Surely God would not have directed him to wear that comical comb over.

Get a life Mr. Dobson, and stop trying to use your "pulpit" to encourage more hatred, lying, and INEPTITUDE.

Clock out–your 15 minutes are up.

Just another flip flopper like McPhony

With Americans like Shivvy, who needs enemies.

A very arrogant, egotistic, selfish man in my view. Why would anyone follow him at all.

"There's nothing dishonorable in a person rethinking his or her positions…," Dobson said.

How about using that type of thinking through life! Believe what you want, sure, God bless you, but stop condemning those who do not!

Christianity?

Don't ask, don't tell.

Keep your myths, legends, lies and bigorty to yourselves.

Just like their candidate, the Religious Right flip-flops on support for McCain. Indeed, McCain and his followers change their mind so often that flip-flopping in the McCain camp has come to be known as being consistent!

Hypocrisy, no? I seem to remember BEFORE McCain was nominated, all of these so-called religiuos leaders wre dead set against McCain. Not to mention a lot of Republican leaders like Santorum and his ilk. Like I said, Hypocrisy, no?

Remember,McCain in 2000 called the leaders of the christian right "agents of intolerance". What has changed?—he lost then–now he kisses up to them to have a chance of winning.The good news—it wont work for Mcflop.

Oh well….OK. Dobson is free to endorse whoever he pleases. This does not mean that all evangelical Christians will do the same. Everyone will need to search their hearts and souls and decide who will be the best man to make this a better place to live for ALL Americans, not just a certian group. In the end, Obama will be their choice. GO OBAMA !

Ofcourse Dobson will endorse Mc Cain he may not like his moderate postions but at the end of the day he wont put a guy who sat in the pews of Trinity Church.Llistened to the flith of Jeremiah Wright into the white house.
He wont let a guy into the white house whos religious background is unclear to many. A man who grew up muslim and then claimed to be christian….Which is it obama?

CHANGE??????? BO - null null - otherwise known as Dr. NO!

"CHANGE"……What I Believe BO's Definition of Change Is!

C = COMMUNISM
H = HATRED
A = ABORTION
N = NEGATIVE
G = GREED
E = ELITISM

"Change" is fleeting! Positive and Negative - Good and Bad. Obama's self-serving "change" born from contempt and controversy, is like a wrecker destroying in a day or two, what it took noble builders - our founding fathers - years to construct.

The tale of the sinister scorpion, mirrors BO's blueprint of deceit.

The scorpion, a poor swimmer, asked the turtle to carry him across the river. "Are you mad?" exclaimed the turtle. "While swimming, you'll sting me and I'll drown."
Laughed the scorpion, "If I sting you, you would drown and I would go down with you. Where is the logic in that?"
"You're right. Hop on!" said the turtle.
Halfway across the river, the scorpion gave the turtle a mighty sting. As they both sank to the bottom, the turtle resignedly asked, "You said there'd be no logic in stinging me. Why did you do it?"
"It has nothing to do with logic," the drowning scorpion replied. "IT'S JUST MY CHARACTER."

MORAL – “IT’S NOT WHAT I SAY, BUT WHAT I DO”

LOVE MY USA

Dobson–Me and plenty of other real Americans knows that a real patriot never changes his mind. You was right to reject McCain and of course you cain't support Obomma cause he ain't no Christian. So why don't you just sit this one out and not vote. I'd invite all other true patriots to do the same thing! Ain't no good choices, and if we's luck judgement day will come befor election day ennyways.

The GOP does NOT have a lock on the Christian vote.

Yes, abortion is wrong and I don't think gays should be married, but there are so many other ethical issues that the GOP has either ignored or taken the wrong position on.

Educate yourself people. A vote for McCain is NOT a vote for Jesus.

Do NOT let people like Dobson tell you that it would be a sin to vote for someone that they wouldn't vote for.

Christians for Obama 08!

Just plain BS… America! Wake up!

Frankly does it really matter about Dobson, CNN can open up for comments about Dobson but to address Jesse Jackson about saying the N word and about cutting off Obama's testicles, did you happen see CNN open up anything for comments on that? If CNN doesnt give equal time to comment on all Reverands, why then is this even relevent especially since the Republican party with Dobson has endorsed has literally push this county to the very edge of falling into a depression what promises to be something that will make Hoover look to be a great President next to Bush

Alice in Florida———When will Obama agree to debate? When will the whining crybaby man up??????
Obama will debate Old HOG JAW …..when he stop pandering call him out on tv …..10 town hall debates he choose the location and proably have his friends staged to ask ?s He should call him and they decide together….McCAIN is in no position to say jump and Mr Obama SAY HOW HIGH !!!! …….(and Michelle is 3 X a woman in camparison to YOU) IDIOT!!!!!

I think the fruitcake is Dobson and his notion that he is the spokesman for Christ. He needs to get back to the message of Christ, feed the poor and protect those that need help. Drop the mega church mentatlity and get to work.

I doubt that many people will be upset if Mr. Dobson doesn't endorse Senator McCain.

Does anyone really care about whether Dobson supports McCain or not. We should stop sorrying about the religious leaders' position in politics.

Dobson is pathetic, he wont change my vote

What a flip-flopper!

Don't you just love when white people use other excuses for not supporting Obama. Instead of just saying we "God's Children" will not vote for a black man. How can people of the cloth be so narrowed minded. As I have said before the election has nothing to do with what people want, it's about the time. That race has corrupted this world so badly that it is time for a change and God knows it.

Tell me Dobson, how it is that the man who challenges his community to step up to the responsibilties of parenting becomes himself anti- family?

Tell me Sir, how is it that the man who advocates peace and resolution thru diplomacy and spoke out against a distractive and futile war in Iraq has become himself dangerous?

Tell me….

Who is James Dobson to say that Obama is distorting the bible? He not a trained theologian and not even a seminary trained clergy person. He is in fact someone who presumes to instruct others on how to live their lives and how to understand the bible…presumptious at best. The reality is that Obama is not distorting the life and words of Jesus who was in fact a radical leader with a very strong social justice orientation. Jesus to Dobson…"Go and sell all that you have and give it to the poor." When that it done I will be able to hear far more clearly what Dobson has to say.

Now what kind of "back room" deal did John McCain strike here? We have just had almost 8 years of secret back room dealings and now John McCain promises more of the same!

This country needs a change of direction - we need to get the republicans out of the White House!

Please CNN, let it go through!!!!

Praise God, He has opened the eyes of his true children in the end time. God has not called those mercenaries in the ministry they just get in to make profit, remember this is one of the best paying jobs in the 21st century. They all have to answer on judgment day and they will pay the eternal price for having led astray the flock of God. The greatest command is Love. Love teaches to love one another but not to kill, not to rob, no to hate and not to be selfish. If Dobson at least were a christian he would know to stay out of politics because his leader would be Jesus in heaven not a man on earth, unfortunately people don't recognize their call in life. Those so called christians are displaying the character of Jesus but the one of the dragon described in Revelation 12.

Thanks to God Jugdment day wil be here anytime soon for the greatest deception in existence.

An authentic follower of Jesus Christ

Why is this man news? Who really cares about Dobson anyway. Separation of church and state please.

rural Kentucky July 21st, 2008 12:07 pm ET

Id rather have Rev. James Dobsons endorsement that Rev. Louis Farrahan and Rev. Jerimiah Wright

I am with you all the way. Rev. James Dobsons will bring in 4-5 Million votors t the McCain side!!! Add another 4-5 million Latinos vote and I see a Landslide!!!! PA, MI, OH, FLA, NJ, NH, that is already Thrre Blue states going RED!!!!

Latinos for McCain!!!!

"Barack Obama contradicts and threatens everything I believe about the institution of the family and what is best for the nation. His radical positions on life, marriage and national security force me to reevaluate the candidacy of our only other choice, John McCain."
- the reverend Dobson.

Excuse me, but as a mere observer of this political process, can I ask in what way Obama's family circumstances, happily married (once) in a Christian God-fearing family with two charming young daughters, represent a "radical" departure from the reverend Dobson's ideas of the family? The reverend Dobson is not a Mormon believer in polygamy, is he? Could it be, heaven forfend, that rather more cynical motivations lie behind his unsubstantiated attack on the probity of this decent all-American family?

Right. I don't know about the guy who's still married to his original wife, forged his own legacy, and is raising two beautiful kids… I might endorse the fella who dumped his wife after she became hobbled and fat.

Why is CNN reporting on this guy?

McCain = War in Iraq
Obama = War in Afghanistan

There's going to be a war somewhere.

Obama is more of a family man and man of God than hate-filled Dobson will ever be.

Obama 08′

Who cares what Dobson thinks or says?

I am an evangelical Christian . . . that has to do with my faith and world and life view, not my politics. Dobson should speak for himself and not try to speak for anyone else.

IMHO Dobson had a good run when he stuck to giving advice on dealing with strong willed kids . . . but the lure of MONEY and self-importance and an organization has gone to his head.

What I really find funny is that Obama is very evangelical, only socially minded as well. Unless everyone agrees with Dobson . . . I guess he thinks they aren't "Christian". Who made him evangelical "Pope"??

I am a moderate republician and feel that Dobson and his right wing idiot followers are destroying the party.

Yech, that's a good enough reason for me to vote for Bob Barr…if McCain wants to align himself with crackpots like Dobson and Hagee, he doesn't have the sense to be a President.

Dobson is a backward fool with little to no grasp on reality. He lacks the ability to think critically and is nothing short of a shister trying to hock his books to the knuckle dragging evangelical community.

It's time for people like Dobson to be put in their place: A quaint corner of history when superstition was king and anti-intellectualism was queen.

America has had enough of religious leaders.

CNN = Clinton News Network….now and forever

Ian: "I thought we were at war with religious extremists."

Well said!

The only people that care are those wooing this guy. He calls himself a leader, but in fact all he is a rebel rouse. Making noise to promote his own agenda. I used to listen to him regularly on radio. But now that he has exposed himself for who he rally is, I will never listen to him again.

Disgusting o fan!

So Mr. Dobson want's to support a true "family values" person to be our President. How many times has McCain been married? How many times has Barack been married? Did McCain live with his current wife before his divorce was final from his x-wife? Isn't that adultery so says the Bible - only the Christina Right can do that and get away with it.

It is time for the Evangelicals to get out of Politics - because of them, we have George W as our Commander in Chief; we have a war in Iraq, the economy is down the tubes; gas is over $4 a gallon. When will it stop? When George leaves the White House and we elect a Democrat!

Id rather have Rev. James Dobsons endorsement that Rev. Louis Farrahan and Rev. Jerimiah Wright.

Who cares!! One nut job considering endorsing another nut job for President!! I for one feel that religion is being brought into this election way to much. Will he still endorse McCain if Romney is his VP pick, LOL, LOL.

I always thought we were supposed to have seperation of church and state. And yet all these so-called religious bozos keep popping up in the political limelight. Can't we please just ignore them and get on with the real business at hand?

…..Electing a president!

Please, please, please endorse McCain.
We are so tired of the religious right, the evangelicals and all the other religous groups choosing our government.

good for him. who cares. separation of church and state, remember news people? my endorsement should count just as much as his does. i endorse Barack Obama. let's take back our country.

I thought we were at war with religious extremists.

Doesn't every preacher "twist" the bible to make their point? And what's the difference? Its a work of fiction. Nothing in it has been proven to be true, and for all we know it is the work of prehistoric plawrights.

Seperation of church and state was instituted to seperate the state FROM the church, not from eachother…that's why the pilgrims left England…THAT is what the nation was founded on, keeping the government out of religious matters. Our lack of remembering history twist and compartmentalizes truths so that people now say that TRUTH should have no part in government (whoops, I said it)

News FLASH Dobson,

There will not be any FAMILY to worry about if McCain gets in the White House in November because we will all have to pack up and go to Iraq and Afghanastan to help our troops fight seeing how they will be there for 100 years!!!!!!

Dobson is a part of the old way of thinking. Remember the media named called anyone voting for Obama, Latte drinkers; implying that we were too young to understand, yet when you look at the soldiers who are there fighting, they are all young!!!! Go figure.

Dobson is free to endorse anyone he chooses, but it is difficult to understand how it would help McCain. Does fidelity mean anything to Dobson's endorsement? It seems to reveal a certain level of hypocrisy that many Americans have grown suspicious of from these neoconservatives that have taken over the Republican Party. It leaves some of us to question the validity of their tax exempt status.

I am voting for true family values this time with Obama. He's a man of faithful decency as a Christian and understands the importance of respectfully upholding our religious freedoms in this country for all belief systems.

So it comes back to religion again? What happened to "seperation of Church and State?" and why have our lawmakers not learned? To see what religious fundamentalism leads to, one need only look to the war we are fighting now, and remember 9/11. "God" should not be the basis for electing a president. Unless he shows himself and wants to run.

Who cares what this d-bag thinks?

Like there's any doubt who the Focus on the Family nuts would vote for anyway.

If Dobson doesn't agree with McCain's principles from a morale basis. He doesn't have to endorse him simply because he's not endoring Obama. He could stay out of it. But… Dobson's more political than he is religious. He's kind of like Jesse Jackson.

When will Obama agree to debate???????????? When will the whining crybaby man up??????

One good thing at least - he's hiding Michelle now, so at least we're not subject to listening to her stupid statements while he's gone on his Magical Mystery Tour followed by his Merry Band of Besotted Reporters.

Come to think of it, Michelle should join him, and they should both just stay overseas somewhere for good. Let them bore another country to death with their boring speeches. Maybe they can find a country that Michelle will be proud to be a part of.

PUMA PAC

i like when o bama says he worked his way through Harvard law school when in fact he took out Two student loans from the government……….if that is work GIVE ME SOME////phoney thin man

What?????????? Dobson bases a decision to change from endorsing Obama to McCain because, "…"Barack Obama contradicts and threatens everything I believe about the institution of the family…" McCain cheated on his first wife, tossed her under the bus because she was injured in a car accident, by his own admission was incapable of maintaining his vows, by his own admission ran around while married, by his own admission disrespected his military rank by choosing to NOT act as an officer and a gentleman, and Dobson is willing to endorse McCain's behavior because Obama contradicts and threatens what he believes about the institution of family???? Obama has not honored his family as a devoted husband and father. Dobson you need to look again at your reasons.

How many interpretations of the bible are there?
If you don't believe in my interpretation then you are wrong! And I will Kill you in the name of god. Radical extremists say I will kill you back in the name of allah. So we get a war based in different believes of a supreme being..Sounds pretty moronic to me.

…

So Dobson is pro-killing.

McWar= War in Iraq

what a whimp. He feels closer to McCain but supposedly does not agree with most of what he stands for. He could of kept this news to himself.

Now this is really exciting! How can anyone put the least bit of hope that this possible endorsement means anything? Mr. Dobson just exemplifies all the corruption, sexual improprieties and illecit behaviors that are rampant in our government and by people we are told to respect. He is just like most all politicians who bend with the wind after they see who can do something for them. It's disgusting and this is one reason this country is in such a mess here and abroad. If we don't move in a totally different direction with Obama then we are all doomed. Sometimes I think that Americans (me too) are a bunch of bumbling idiots who are so easily lead by the nose. Whatever happened to independent thinking where we all use our brains that "God" gave most of us? This is 2008 and Dobson and McCain are living in the past. I doubt they will ever get into the right century with their thinking and actions.

What an EGO!

I am a Republican Mom of 3 , who supported Bush and have always been republican.
I have to say that is seems as is Bush, McCain and Maliki are moving towards Obama's position.
Obama, who has not been there as much as they have seems to have a better plan for Iraq and has been right that the focus should have been on Afghanistan which Bush and McCain are also now coming to.
Obama has earned my vote !!!.

Also notice that Bush has now decided that we now need to engage our enemies such as Iran which they started to do.
For once this Republican is going to cross party lines and vote for a Democrat, I may not agree with all the Democratic Positions but looking at the Economy, Iraq and the way both men have run their campaigns, Obama has certainly earned my vote. I also like the way the rest of the world is responding to us, our image has been so tarnised abroad, Obama has gone there with humility and a willingness to dialogue with people.
Let's us restore America's image and show that we are the true leaders of the world and vote the best choice-Barack Obama.
This republican from Georgia and her entire family will be doing so.

This guy's endorsement is another reason for voting for CHANGE. He should have stuck to family counseling!

Who cares who this character Dobson endorses. Just like the rest of those religious right rogues Dobson is just another hypocrite who's family values stop at the ballot box. Isn't Mccain the one who found his second wife while still married and living with his first wife. Isn't Obama the the one who has been married to the same woman and appears to be faithful and a good husband and father. It's never truly about family values or religion with people like Dobson. They use that as a cover up just like the Republicans do. Anyone his endorsement will mean anything to is already a lost cost not just for Obama but for society as well. The "do as I say not as I do group" of religious hypocrites always end up refvealing their true colors.

WHO CARES ABOUT A PERSON WHO MAKE BUSINESS WITH GOD.

OBAMA 08.

Great! One more reason to avoid the republican candidate.

Millions of people listen to or watch Dr. Dobson on radio and tv, and whoever he endorses should be very thankful. It was Christian conservatives who were greatly responsible for electing Bush (both times), and they will help elect John McCain also.
Religion and politics should be separate, but according to the Bible it will be the main issue in the last days, as a power that is both religious and political will be in control of the One World Government-aka: New World Order.

How cute, the obamaphiles are out bagging on religious figures. If Dobson where black, they would all be excited about how BHO reaches everyone. Such tools are the obamaphiles.

If Dobson endorses McCain it will tell me who to vote for. I hadn't made my mind up yet, but I always vote the opposite of Dobson!

I think Mr. Dobson should just FOCUS on the family because we have a lot of dysfunctional homes in our society. As a religious man , he should know that Christ was more concerned about saving men's souls than politics.

Just another nut job. Evangicals go AWAY! You have no business participating in our government.

Mr. Dobson, you are no Reverend, Pastor, or Bible scholar, although you play one on the radio. The last time I checked, Sen. Obama is a professor of Constitutional Law and you are misleading and totally off base with your opinion of Mr. Obama's "fruitcake" interpretation of the Constitution.

Nobody cares what you think since you and the evangelicals are once again trying to derail the election system by appealing to people's religious fears. It won't work—NOT THIS TIME, Mr. Dobson. Your Old Testament law doesn't mix with New Testament grace.

Dobson has no clue about Christianity and faith. He is the spirit of the antichrist

Dobson said …. "Barack Obama contradicts and threatens everything I believe about the institution of the family "

How can any thinking evangelical respect Dobson, he'll say ANYTHING.

Who among us believes this of Senator Obama? He will strengthen the instituion of the "traditional family" with is loving, devoted, dedicated wife, his two well behaved, intelligent, balanced children, his almost 20 year marriage, no divorces (unlike John McCain) and clear CHRISTAIN FAITH.

Dobson can not have any credibility with his outlandish statements and no thinking man or woman will follow his lead on this.

This man has no place in politics. Clergymen and women unite and speak truth. The nation needs you to keep radicals like Dobson "honest" as he seeks to pervert the gospel for his own twisted mission. Obama is a man and Jesus is Lord.

You can be 1 of 30 good men through whom Jesus can change the world.

Dobson look like Ponce Pilate'..

Must be a slow news day when the top Political Ticker story is an announcement that there MIGHT be a potential flip-flop from some religious guy of dubious influence.

Should have gone with the far more interesting "Batman beats Spidey at the box office."

I don't see what is so radical about saying legislation should not be based on the Bible. I am a devout christian whose congregation would be considered "conservative", but I don't believe that Amercan law and policy must follow the Bible. One of the reasons that this country is great is because of the religious freedoms we as Americans have. People who are not of a certain faith should not have be forced to follow a law system based only on Christian principles.

Do I think the world would be a better place if more people were Christian…yes. But that doesn't mean we should force Americans to adopt a view that isn't their choice. That's what Dobson and handful of other so-called "conservative Christian leaders" would have you believe. You can be a conservative Christian and still believe in Obama.

Obama/ Hagel 08

Does anyone really care?

Who cares what he says. This election is not about religion but about the future of america.

Dobson - Go to Hell

Dumbson… What a surprise (sarcasim if u missed it) who cares…crawl back into the hole you came from.

Another Baffoon joins the ship of fools.

Dobson also endorsed the devil. Big surprise here.

In a high profile situation like running for president, if a candidate proves to someone that he is in line with their beliefs, what's the harm of "changing" their mind.

After all obama says he is for "change" in America…why pan this.

NOW THIS IS BIG … ONE HYPOCRITCAL JERK "POSSIBLY" ENDORSING ANOTHER HYPOCRITCAL JERK!

Way to go James Dobson, just like John McBush first I am against you and now I am for you. Join the parade John Hagee,Rod Parsely,Phill Gramm , just like a circus , what a bunch of clowns.Barack Hussein Obama 08

Connie"Hussein'Sturgeon from Indiana

not news….please don't try to make mcain relevant this wk. we want to see more pictures about obama's trip…help us help your ratings

This is little more than parroting what Dobson has said. You still don't get what it means to report the news. If you had listened to the video that you reference in this article that Dr. Dobson sent out a few weeks ago you could have mentioned that the statements accompanying that video - the ones that splashed across the news - statements about what Barack Obama was saying were at best inaccurate and more likely simply untrue. We don't need to be reading about what 'he said and then she said' so to speak. That is just gossip dressed up like news. Do a little investigation and if you've already done that then show a little backbone and write about the way things are not about the way some people would like it to be.

Another crazy "man of God"! What normal, sane, intellectually adequate person cares what he thinks? This is the same crazy who as a Christian "parenting expert" advised parents to hit children as young as 18 months old with implements, "to purify" children through pain, and if they cried too long afterwards to hit them again. This is a religious leader? No wonder Jesus wept!

I hope he does endorse Senator McCain.

Dobson is a partisan Republican operative and a chronic liar. His propaganda supports the Republican Party because it makes laws that increase business profits at any cost. Like McCain, he's not honest about his real reasons for being a Republican. Take from the poor and give to the rich. Support for uncontrolled business at the expense of ordinary Americans — that's why Dobson will support McCain, and it conflicts with what the Lord told us to do in the Biblle.

Interesting, Rev. Dobson. So believing in and having a sound marriage as opposed to running around on your wife is….radical? Then, let's elect this kind of radical in November.

Of course he's going to endorse McCain. He's definitely not going to endorse anyone who doesn't have the same hue as he does no matter what he/she stands for. If he's such a Christian why would he endorse a man who not only cheated on his disabled wife, but left her for a younger woman and married the younger woman? Dobson is a hypocrite and a biggot.

This guy is such a jerk.
Who cares which candidate, if any, that he endorses?

For someone who claims to be so Christian, he sure is hateful and intolerant. Seems like he ought to go back and re-read his own copy of the bible.

Would Jesus vote for McWar? No way.

Dobson’s perspective on family values more closely mirrors Obama’s, then McCain. Yet he leans towards supporting McCain, which undermines what little creditability he has.

Dr Dobson is just all talk – no substance. Obama, not only sets an example of strong family values, but also openly encourages fathers to take responsibility for raising their children. McCain on the other hand dumped his first family and started over to suit his own shellfish desires and political aspirations. He dumped His First wife a former beauty queen, when she was no longer extraordinary beautiful and then opening played the field while he was still married. He abandoned his teenage daughter at a point in her life when girls are the most emotionally frail. He adopted his first wife’s, then latter just turned his back on them coldly.

Yet, this is the man Dr Dobson is thinking about supporting – what a hypocrite.

Well, it's about time!! I could not believe you would be supporting the current Democratic candidate. That would go against absolutely everything you broadcast and believe in!!

This is a surprise? why is this news? guess ya got do something for Mclame due to BO looking presidential in Iraq ect.

Great, so for the rest of us non-protestants, this still doesn't make any difference at all.

How is this news? Is Dobson even relevant anymore? The conservative jihad has been defeated.

Who cares………..Obama will be the next President Of The United States!!

No matter what that old, senile, Depends-wearing racist fanatic Harriet Christian says.

Focus on GOD Mr. Dobson —FOUCS ON GOD!!

"His radical positions on life, marriage and national security force me to reevaluate the candidacy of our only other choice, John McCain."

So I guess abusing and cheating on your wife is considered normal??

Flip-Flop!
Jim White

McCain is still the best for the job even if Dobson does endorse him.

McCain '08!!!

"His radical positions on life, marriage and national security force me to reevaluate the candidacy of our only other choice, John McCain."

So I guess abusing and cheating on your wife is considered normal?

Who cares what Dobson has to say……In October, he will endorse Obama…..then on election day he will vote for McCain

Who care if this idiot endorses Mccain, this guy calls him self a evangelical leader and envolves him self in politics, he should stay away from polictics if his job is to serve God, God is for all people he does not care weather you are Republican Or Democrat. This Guy is an idiot and bigot and needs to be treated as such.

The arrogance of James Dobson is such a disgrace to the religious community. I hope he does endorce him…that will only go to show is continued ignorance and bull-headedness. While the polls show the race is close, I really hope that when the choice comes down to "different" or "the same", people choose "different". Dobson has his own political agenda and his influence on politics got us two George Bush terms - HELLO!!!!! He clearly has no concept of separating church and state and continues to influence government to legislate morality based on his own principals. A fruitcake interpretation of the Constitution would be not honoring "equal rights" for everyone, including freedom of religion - for which he has no respect. CNN - stop empowering him by giving him a platform for his nonsense!!!

There are poeple who will not like Senator Obama. We learn to accept that and move on..

Who?

I'm sick and tired of these religious "leaders" influence our politics and laws. Isn't this why America was formed in the first place … for freedom of religion as well as freedom FROM religion?

I don't agree with this guy's spiritual views and I don't want him or any other religious leader impacting our politics and laws.

Am an Evangelical but am voting for Barack Obama

Obama's religious beliefs ARE VERY QUESTIONABLE.

OBAMA ADMITTS HE WAS NOT RAISED TO BELIEV IN ANY RELIGION OR GOD. — HE WAS RAISED AS AN ATHEIST.

Does anyone put any credence in who Rev. Dobson endorses? We've had a 'real' Christian (Carter) and one pretender (Dubya) - now how did those two work out? Religion doesn't have squat to do with the price of gas or the endless war in Iraq.

He saw the light! Smart man.

Let's see…what's the definition of "Flip-Flopping" again?

Seems Dobson has decided he'll get more press coverage by doing this than disavowing McCain. "Go where the winds blow you", Doc.

"Not a preacher, not a minister"…just another Politician. What an opportunist!

…( Cindy McCain- " former lobbyist" - once a lobbyist always a lobbyist)

And this is news because……?

Does anybody really care what this old bible thumper has to say?

Whatever. Another reason to vote for Obama! I hope more of these ultra conservative nutjobs endorse McCain.

Flip flop surrogate

Who is this clown anyway? Who said he speaks for evangelical christians? We christians aren't one issue voters - I oppose abortion, but also support the use family planning to prevent abortions in the first place.

Dobson should read the Bible - he just doesn't get it!

WHO CARES? YOU LOST YOUR CREDIBILITY.

A conservative christian? I'm surprised he hasn't been on the MCCain bandwagon from the get go. Not really news. . . to me.

McBush grabs the endorsement of another "evangelical" right wing nut job.

So many articles on John McCain this weekend at Obama News Network. Is the editor away or have the shareholders started feeling the heat about the partisanship of this network? Perhaps the editor realized that ONN would not be endorsed by the Obama campaign and it it would go to the OBC (formally known as NBC)

CNN is working hard against Obama
Over the weekend all the coverage is for McCain and his supporters…
For a momenet I thought I was watching Fox news and not CNN

Rev. Dobson says that Obama is taking a "fruitcake interpretation" of the Bible. I suggest he look at himself. I lived for many years in Colorado Springs Colorado, and it is well known in that entire city that "Focus on the Family" has a "fruitcake interpretation" of the Bible. There is no Church or group that has a nuttier interpretation than they do.

Obama 08

While conservative Christian leader James Dobson hasn't officially endorsed McCain, he says he doesn't rule it out.
? please advice what church does McCain attend?or what domination is he Just curious

Doesn't this count as a flip-flop???
No one surrounding McCain is trustworthy.

Why? He's in a pandering mode and going to go back to his old self when elected.

Endorse Barr

He has to endorse otherwise religious zealots will not vote!

Holy Cow…You're kidding!!!!

Boy I didn't see this coming!

After the wildly disproportionate amount of heat Obama got for Rev. Wright, I wonder if McCain will get ANY for accepting this endorsement.

"contradicts and threatens everything I believe about the institution of the family and what is best for the nation."

What planet do these people live on?

Obama 08.

************************************************************
Dobson is a neoconservative, who strongly supports war, and not peace.

He was a strong advocate for the invasion of Iraq. If you think pastors usually hate war…. well not Dobson.

Dobson is a hypocrite, he has on many times quoted from Leviticus -when he goes on his anti-gay rants, but when Obama quotes from Leviticus, he says the teaching in Leviticus are obsolete, and Obama is giving a "fruitcake interpretation”

We all know Dobson, is one of the GOP "Far-Right" attack dogs.
He heavily attacked Al Gore & John Kerry, so I'm not surprised see Dobson, join the McSame, on the Flip-Flop Express, taking on his usual Attack Duties.

Dobson has the blood of thousands of innocent Iraqis on his hand, for helping Bush to start a war based on lies.

GOP = Grand Old Pharisees
FOX = For Obama's eXecution
********************************************************************

Flip-Flop at it's finest

Is this man's opinion even relevant to this election anymore? If he does endorse McCain it is obviously just a show of opposition to Obama for the religious right. It certainly isn't going to do anything to 'energize the base' since he has already expressed so much disdain for McCain. His remarks for McCain are lukewarm at best. Who cares??

hmm…ok

Mr. Dobson is just another person who would attempt to put God in a box. Those who choose to force their own vision and their beliefs of God's will on others do the opposite of God's will. Mr. Obama deeply believes in God despite what others may seek to have you believe. I believe the truth of the matter is that Mr. Dobson for all his religious and moral rantings does not want to see a non-white in the White House.

Come on Dobson…flip-flop for me baby.

I'm at a lost for words. How can Dobson, a "supposedly man of faith and family", endorse McCain? You would think that Dobson and Obama being "brothers in Christ" would have more in common than McCain.

If he does, then this is apropos:

"Welcome Mr. Dobson, to the epic "Moral FLIP-FLOPPERS Club", where we do or say anything that is politically expediant, even when those things conflict with our core principals or that which we've believed in our entire careers - lead by none other than John McCain himself."

Flip - flop

and we care because???1!!!

Where exactly is the 'Iraq/Pakistan border' ?

Asked by ABC's Diane Sawyer Monday morning whether the "the situation in Afghanistan in precarious and urgent," McCain responded:

"I think it's serious. . . . It's a serious situation, but there's a lot of things we need to do. We have a lot of work to do and I'm afraid it's a very hard struggle, particularly given the situation on the Iraq/Pakistan border," said

Dobson is a radical pig whose deep contempt for women's rights, gays and lesbians, minorities, and other religions is both disgusting and dangerous. He makes me absolutely sick.

MCCain, run from Dobson. These radical so called christians are nothing but a bunch of haters. They hate anybody and anything that does march lock step with their twisted vision of the world.

His interests are economic and political, not religious. He's a radio personality whose success (i.e. ratings and therefore advertising revenue) is based on statements designed to get media attention. This his endorsement — or condemnation — of any candidate is about as relevant as the rantings of Ann Coulter or Howard Stern.

Ok, your next poll - see who cares?

A flip flop of the finest kind… what you can still believe from politicians like that ?

dobson is on of the biggest hypocrites ever. he'll fit right in with the mccain camp.

Nine out of ten religeous fanatics support McCain.

Who cares….

Get lost you morons… who cares. We are suffering from recession and all you can think is about conservatives, liberals.. You guys preach something and do something else.
OBAMA (2008 -16)

Dobson and other evangelical leaders unimpressed by McCain increasingly are taking a lesser-of-two-evils approach to the 2008 race.Good Dobson and the other_______ are not GOD

And Dobson's endorsement means what?

Whoa! What a RINGING ENDORSEMENT!

(Worthless)

If this blowhard is having a hard time endorsing McCain, then in essence he isn't endorsing him after all.

What's less evil than McCain?

Who cares, Dobson? You are divisive and do not represent an iota of Jesus' all embracing love. Bush shifted to the right to try to appease you and your colleagues and look at the mess we are in. Gridlock and the worst dictatorship in the history of America. This is the so called born-again way?? What would Jesus do? I don't think He would approve of you, Dobson or any of the Evangelical holier than thou, axis of vile righteousness!

Dobson is an idiot. Whho cares what this blowhard thinks or who he endorses. Again, Dobson is an idiot.

The wing nuts have had eight years of George Bush. Nobody cares what Dobson or his ilk think anymore.

Would someone please look into how this Republican hack keeps his tax exempt status as a religious organization.

I never though I would hear myself saying this, but even I cannot support Obama.

Odd that the candidate that will govern with the New TEstament love of Jesus versus the GOP's bastardization of the Old Testament is not getting this man's support.

Seems hipocritical to me.

As a Christian, I really don't care to listen to this guy. It appears to me to be his Christian or no Christian. I prefer to listen, and read, and then use my OWN mind as to my beliefs.

If you are picking the "lesser of two evils" as this article suggests, then what do you really stand for?

He's criticized Senator McCain, who by the way hasn't said one thing on his faith, now Dobson wants to endorse him.

What does that tell you?

And……………….

WHO CARES????????????????????????????????????????????

Moral Majority is for sale … cool.

Who gives a crap what you intolerant bible-thumpers say, anyway? Too bad the sheeple didn't learn anything from the televangelist scams of the 1980s, PTL,Jummy Swaggert's daliance with a hooker, etc. May the Rev. Ted Haggard be with you, punk!

I'm sure there are a lot of evangelicals who think different than Dobson and won't vote the ways he says.,

How does this crazy keep getting air time?

God, guns and gays, simple as that

Oh…um….goody?

Bet McCain can hardly wait to have that dangling over his head like the sword of Damocles.

James Dobson has proven himself what I always thought him to be - a self-seeking, self-serving, hypocritical charlatan and flip-flopper who has no clue what the Bible teaches about the Christian and politics. Jesus Himself teaches us to render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's and unto God the things that are God's. Dobson has chosen to align himself with the Kingdom of McSame and not the Kingdom of God. May others who have been blinded by the false religion of this false prophet have their eyes opened to the truth.

To Dr. Dobson I say it is the right thing to do as millions of evangelicals look up to his leadership and value his opinion. McCain is soft on abortion we know this but not voting for McCain is a sure victory for the extreme leftist attitude Obama is sure to bring into the white house. The hall mark of a great leader is his/her ability to acknowledge the needs of the many out weigh the needs of the few or the one and in the end I think Dr. Dobson will do the right thing for the many who follow his lead.

I hear a lot of Republicans referring to McCain as the "lesser-of-two-evils". So so so wrong. McCain thinks we've succeed in Iraq, yet there could be a huge terrorist attack during the general election. That sounds evil to me! Trying to win the election with fear. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
