    The poisoning of our Armed Forces in Colorado Springs among their worse blasphemies and heresy..

    Rev. Dobson and these other zealots of Colorado Springs have committed one of the worst acts in the annals of America's military history...

    That being spreading dissension among our Forces especially at the Air Force Academy based upon religious orientation belief and or the lack thereof..!

    Equally disgraceful was the failure to respond properly and immediately by our poor excuse of a Commander in Chief, who should have appeared there immediately and put an end to this abomination and pernicious trend within one of if not America's finest military school and establishment..

    None other than George Washington dealt with this without equivocation when faced with General Benedict Arnold taking issue with Catholic's celebrating St. Patrick's Day during the Revolution prior to Arnold's betrayal...

    That letter to Arnold is must reading, and predates the Constitution and Bill of Rights..

    No church or other organization that seeks to be seen as patriotic would ever sow such ignorance and hatred within our armed forces as Rev. Dobson and these blaspheming heretic zealots of Colorado and Colorado Springs especially are guilty of..!

    It is still a problem there due to Bush's failure as a Commander in Chief, and also symptomatic of decay and growing blatant incompetency within our Air Force, which according to the Army and Marine Core have also not "pulled it's weight" in the on going war on terror..in Iraq and Afghanistan primarily..
