Justice Sunday

“Dr. James Dobson, founder of the conservative Christian group Focus on the Family, whose political sister group was a sponsor of the event, defended Mr. DeLay and his attacks on the judiciary, calling the Supreme Court "unaccountable," "out of control," and a despotic oligarchy.… The founding fathers, he said, intended for the president and Congress to "check the judiciary and it hasn't done it," he said.”

I don’t know where or how Dr. Dobson received his doctorate, but if the above is a true account of what he said, it’s certain that it never involved any studies in history or civics. Or, so much time has elapsed since his last constitutional studies class that he has forgotten the material…it may be kinder to simply say that he forgot.

    Perhaps he should just stick to "his ruling power" and Focus on the Family.
