know-it-all to old-fart astonishment.
Author/Psychologist James Dobson stopped short of endorsing presumptive GOP nominee John S. McCain today but warned the traditional American family could soon be a thing of the past if Barack Obama becomes President of the United States. It was the first time Dobson has mentioned the Illinois Senator from his "Focus On The Family" headquarters in Colorado Springs. "You're all waiting for me to say Barack Hussein Obama, aren't you?" chuckled the folksy, consersative 71-year old spiritual guide for tens of millions of Evangelical Christians. "But I don't need to."
Taking questions at a scheduled press conference, Dobson was at the podium with California psychologist, Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, who Dobson refers to as America's top authority on pre-verbal and early childhood homosexuality. Dr. Nicolosi, Founding Executive Director of NARTH,


"Where the rubber meets the road is yet a new threat to decency and tradition," continued Dobson. "Can Mom and Dad expect the Lord to bless dinner when Grace is mocked by a Junior or a Sis who dress and look like this?"

"I don't claim to know the Lord's will," concluded Dobson. "I'm as good a sports fan as the next man. But the Democrat Party's nominee can set traditional family values back to the hippy 1960s. Can we afford this? I speak as a psychologist and call it an Obamanation." Dobson concluded with several YouTube videos of head-band wearing slam dunks http://blackfivesblog.com/?p=401 and excoriated filmmaker Spike Lee's "He Got Game" for naming a high-school basketball star Jesus http://www.imdb.com/title/tt012471

Hi Dr. Bawb,
Do you have any links or specifics on this press conference that we could investigate? I couldn't find anything but it looks worth checking. My email is david@exgaywatch.com if you do.
You don't need to post this as it's not really a comment. I also couldn't find any email addy for you so this was it ;)
Thanks!

Mygawd, David -
APOLOGIES! I wrote this as a "dead-pan" spoof on BOTH Dobson AND Nicolosi!
First; I was in Grad School at USC about two-years behind Dobson. He was '66, I was '68. With from-birth cerebral palsy you'd have to be Comatose NOT to recognize me. Dobs and I had ZILCH in common. We might have nodded in passing but nothing else. Was ONLY after he became semi-famous [ca. 1980s] that I vaguely recalled him.
Nicolosi was, literally,
"something else." I'd been licensed, worked at an LA outpatient clinic and had a reputation as a good Pre-and Post-Doc supervisor. Joe showed up among 6 great pre-docs. He was
amazingly "Obtuse."
Wasn't just a Gay Thing: He was "So bad, he was good!" to papaphrase film critic Dwight McDonald. I phoned his school to ask: "How did this guy get into any college much less Grad School?" Nicolosi was gone the next week.
Hey! Don't blame me:)
