“Everyone knows he’s conservative and has come out strongly for the things that the pro-family movement stands for,” Dobson – considered the most politically powerful evangelical figure in the U.S. – said in a phone call to Dan Gilgoff, senior editor at U.S. News & World Report.

“[But] I don’t think he’s a Christian. At least that’s my impression.”

Show the quote-prove we’re liars

Check this out.

The truth is that the infamous "quote" is from a conversational phone interview, in which Dobson confessed that he didn't know much about Thompson's faith, and that he wasn't sure whether or not the man was a Christian. This uncertainty has been mischaracterized by Dobson-haters as some sort of definite statement that Dobson thinks Fred not to be a Christian. That's not what he said.

Here's a more thorough explanation of the mis-quotation.

I suspect few will actually read that, as they prefer to believe the lies about Dobson than to spend a minute learning the truth.

the quote is at the link. I don’t think you’re a liar, though. Maybe you missed it when it happened, or have blinders on when it comes to Dobson. I don’t know. But the quote says what it says.
