Dobson hypocisy

I wonder if Dobson ever edits himself. He appeared on the steps of the court building in Montgomery Alabama, and said" The liberal elite and the federal judges and some members of the media are determined to remove every evidence of faith in God from the entire culture. They are determined to control more and more of our private lives, and it is time that we said 'enough is enough.'

Three things emerge here, but I want to focus on one. So like Letterman, I'll start at the bottom. Third: Notice the veiled reference to the not-so-liberal media - "some members of the media...." Not the blanket liberal media because it doesn't exist any more! Second, if all this evidence is removed, will that mean that faith in God doesn't exist any more? That would mean by extension that their faith is idolatrous. So I say remove, and force the faith to be real and where it belongs. However, the thing that strikes me is the phrase, Number one: "They are determined to control more and more of our private lives...."
