The problem with Dobson’s complaint wasn’t that he believed Thompson disagreed with him on the substance of the issue, Dobson expected Thompson to follow the ‘how’ of the issue to. The problem with Dobson’s expectation is that a lot of good, Christian conservatives don’t want to cross the line in modifying the Constitution because you are opening the door to ignore the basic federalist principles of our government- a can of worms that could backfire on Conservatives.

Dobson may not like that Thompson believes that marriage is a legal issue that is mandated to the States, but it is. Yes, there is a problem with run-away judges, but the answer is to get good Conservatives in there to appoint good judges, not change the Constitution to remove power from the States.

Well, it looks like on the issue of Marriage, both he and Thompsom are on the same page. The disagreement lies in HOW BEST to strengthen the institution given activist judges.

But as I said before, Dobson is talking this way because there are other candidates on the list who are closer to his approach than Thompson.

But if Thompson BECOMES the Republican candidate, the choice then boils down to Fred or Hillary. No price for guessing who Dobson will support then.

There are no good judges anymore.

To repair the damage done by judges the other branches of government must regain their balance.

Waiting for “good judges” is hopeless - the universities are only producing feminist lawyers.

We need a new plan or we won’t survive.

I thought that Dobson’s beef with Thompson was that Fred wouldn’t wear his religion on his sleeve.
