If this is from American Thinker and the author is conservative, then why hyphenate the word God ???

I have also noticed this many times. It seems that some think it is irreverent to spell the whole name. I don't understand it. Maybe someone else has an idea and can chime in.

I've heard that but I don't understand it either.

It is a Jewish way of showing respect to God by not mentioning His Name since only the high priest could mention it and only on the Day of Atonement.
