Obama: Dobson "Making Stuff Up"

Says Senator Barack Obama in response to Dr. James Dobson's criticism yesterday of his June 2006 speech on religion and politics:

I think you'll see that he was just making stuff up, maybe for his own purposes.

For more on Dobson's willful deceptions, see also "James Dobson Doesn't Speak for Me," a website created by a group of religious leaders comparing statements from Dobson and Obama.

Update 18:10: Escapee from the "soft theocracy" Frank Schaeffer writes "Dr. Dobson Has Just Handed Obama Victory." Schaeffer says Dobson is simply lashing out, alienating more and more evangelicals as his power wanes with the Bush Administration. Sweet!
