From the “This Week’s Development That Scares the Everliving Hell Out of Me” Department...

...and I meant to post this way earlier, but the entire week just escaped me...I hate it when that happens...

Bushnev is getting Iran advice from James Dobson.

"I was invited to go to Washington DC to meet with President Bush in the White House along with 12 or 13 other leaders of the pro-family movement," Dobson disclosed on his radio program Monday. "And the topic of the discussion that day was Iraq, Iran and international terrorism. And we were together for 90 minutes and it was very enlightening and in some ways disturbing too."
Never mind that this is proof of the uneven playing field between right and left--if the next Democratic President were to consult with the left's version of Dobson (Michael Moore, I guess?), there would be shock from the media, while this story of the president not only visiting with a religious crazy but talking about Iran with him didn't get even a hint of attention--this is scary on so many different levels. Other countries already think we're as religiously misguided as the 'freedom-hating' bad guys we have taken on (by ourselves)...what are they going to think now?

Then again, Dobson seems to have a, shall we say, tendency for exaggeration, so I guess it's possible that the dinner was just about something silly and frivolous, like, you know, abortion or something.
