DR.Dobson (as guest) properly slams The "media royalty" of FACE THE NATION -Hurray for him!

CBS news | 2/15/04 | Jack Armstrong

[Jack Armstrong]

Sundays Face the Nation program was put in its place by the honorable Doctor James Dobson of Focus on the Family. Host Bob Sheefer could not force any of his pre-arranged "trapdoor" questions in an interview with Dr. Dobson.

[Jack Armstrong]

I was elated to witness a great "face" appear on TV . The headline was to promote their CBS Face The Nation , which proudly boasted to have conservative Dr. Dobson, on the show. I watched the interview, and happily enjoyed Dr. Dobson answer ever question with perfect wisdom & integrity. The good doctor defended President Bush without falling victim to being trapped into responding as a KOOK to the interviewer Sheefer. Sheefer attempted to make Dobson appear as a radical closed minded BOOB.In fact Dobson halted all the propoganda with a fine pare' of facts and issues instead of presumptuous retoric, which was all Sheefer had to present. Dr Dobson would not let the interview detract from the real facts. I say , Thank You to the wise Doctor for his Facing the BOOBS on CBS with the true wisdom of a conservative mind. Praise the LORD!

I just caught the last minute of the interview. I wish I would have seen the whole thing.

[Jack Armstrong]

OH well , I was very delighted to witness the whole thing. Dr. D- was very aware of the pit vipers, he kept his cool and struck hard as he made all his points without flinching or side stepping. In fact at one point he clairified the recent civil partnership actions as part of Kerry's agenda!

[CROSSHIGHWAYMAN]

That smug Bob Schieffer!

Right after Dobson concluded by saying the Bush National Guard thing was overdone and should be finished, Bobby smirked and started a new segment on Bush's Guard service.

Talk about chutzpah!

If that's what the Sunday morning talk shows think is the top subject, they are really lazy and old fogy dolts.

[Jack Armstrong]

I certainly hope some one from the Focus on th efamily group up in Colorado will click on this and be aware that we appreciate all the good stuff Dr. Dobson does , he is a very strong cornerstone of the moral majority, which by the way , still exists !

[sausageseller]

Who was the woman that also asked Dr. Dobson questions?

He would not let her distract him from making the point about Kerrys' vote against the DOMA!

[Abcdefg]

Bob is a self confessed liar by ommission.
He has a book out "This Just In: What I Couldn't Tell You on TV"

[Jack Armstrong]

Those "DOLTS" of the media elite are pompus SOBs.
I have not respect for them.
Ever hear the expression,
There are 4 branches of US Federal Government...
1] Judicial
2] Executive
3] Legislative
4] Media

The media is un-elected.The media is forcing their liberal "face" on the stature of the "news", by not simply reporting "FACTS".
The media is without checks & balances, aside from boycotting commercial products. They can not be removed, I believe news anchores must be held to "TERM LIMITS".

[Twinkie]

You are "right on"! What is wrong with the media elite?
They couldn't be more transparent if they held Kerry
campaign signs as they spoke.

[Jack Armstrong]

I did not get her name, she was a "ringer", that Bob had sided her for the purpose to try to get the liberal "VIEW" over onto the "dumb" public sheep. I guess he needed a second / specialist in order to make sure Doctor Dobson was harassed and flustered.
HE WASN"T !

[Jack Armstrong]

Twinkie
The plain reality is if a person is interested in becoming a "journalist" it is because they wish to be just like their idols, or they want to report truth.
After being brainwashed by the liberal education system (NEA) most of these little brains filled with mush , are completely void of all logic.
To even graduate from a university now days, one must become a liberal, or face the demons of the ten-year. 99% of all "journalists" are flaming liberals! The media makes sure of this by only allowing their closed minded narrow secular views to be propogated all over the press. The US schools of higher education are inbred breeding grounds for socialist/liber theology. University is supposed to allow "multiple" points of view. They do not , if you do not agree with the "PARTY LINE" you are dead!

I wish I could have seen it. Dobson is excellent. Any particular exchange that stands out?

[Jack Armstrong]

at the end Dr D wrapped up by simply pointing out (with great gusto!) that the media had picked the National Guard (Pres Bush) topic as their lead headline for "DAYS now"...
then... Sheefer went to his next topic, of ...
You guessed it ...
The National Guard deal!.
It was pure poetry, I think th eHoly Spirit directed Dr D to say that!

[camas]

her name is karen tun--ty or something like that. didn't get the spelling of her last name.

[Searching]

I too was thrilled to hear honest, straightforward answers from Dr.Dobson when replying to Bob Sheefer and FACE THE NATION. No matter what your political leaning, the media owes it to the public that they are supposed to serve (ha!) to tell the news and NOT create it.

[jwalsh07]

LOL, pretty good timing.

[Hebrews 11:6]

her name is karen tun--ty or something like that. didn't get the spelling of her last name.

Tumulty? Another shill for Time Magazine, iirc.

[TheSpottedOwl]

I've read Dr. Dobson's books. I wish I had seen the interview.

[Guenevere]

#2..I have considered Dr.Dobson an esteemed standard bearer for years!!
God bless him!
