You can not seriously believe that Dr. Dobson is judging CHARACTER in this case.... he is simply aplying HIS definition of Christian and stating that based on HIS definition of Christian (which many of us happen to share) that Mr. Fred Thompson does not appear to be one.. that is IT.... Do not make it more than what it is... take it or leave it... again I say Mr. Thompson has NO reason to be offended.. IF Mr. Thompson believes that HE is in fact a Christian, it appears that he and Mr. Dobson have different definitions of what it means to be a Christina,.., in this case I would like to hear what Mr. Thompsons definition of a Christian is since he seems to be "offended" that Dr. Dobson said that he does not appear to be one..... IF an atheist were to proclaim that DAVID OSBORNE IS NOT AN ATHEIST.. I would not be offended because it would be a simple statement of fact.. however if I WAS an atheist I would attempt to clarify with that individual our differing opinions of what it means to be an atheist..

IF this is in FACT the case,... which I believe it is...
I would like to hear what Mr. Thompsons definition of being a Christian is since he seems to be "offended" that Dr. Dobson (a well known Christian) said that he does not appear to be one.....
IF a well known atheist were to proclaim that DAVID OSBORNE IS NOT AN ATHEIST.. I would not be offended... because I would accept it as a simple statement of fact..
however if I WAS an atheist I would attempt to clarify with THE PUBLIC.. as well as that individual our differing opinions of what it means to be an atheist..
All your protestations would be slightly believable except for all those postings you have pushing Duncan Hunter. So it really boils down NOT to some look at someone's moral character but just to political competition. You wanted to promote your guy (which is okay) by not so subtlely tearing down another guy (not so okay).
