    @bobbyjoe

    Dobson, like most of his fellow prominent religious right pundits is a phoney-baloney bottom-dweller who wouldn't think twice about selling his soul and his grandmother if it made him more money.

    Your bigotry is showing. Dobson has never taken a salary the entire 30-plus years Focus on the Family has been in operation, and all the royalties from his books sold through the organization are returned to Focus on the Family.

    He also gave up a lucrative medical practice in Southern California in 1977 to found Focus on the Family.

    Next time, check your bigotry at the door and check your facts.

    Oh, wait ... this is Salon. Never mind.
