Does no one care about Kerik? (Focus on Family silent)
Column By ETHEL CHANNON
Assistant Managing Editor

We have had a fax machine here for years. Usually we consider it more curse than blessing because of the abundance of junk faxes.

Among the regular-one might say repetitive-purveyors of faxes, as the organization sends numerous copies,is Focus on the Family, Dr. James Dobson's group of spirited moralists.

Back in the Clinton days, the group was more than happy to offer the fax on its opinions of the various scandals ilvolving the President and First Lady, sexual, financial, familial or otherwise. The group focused on the moral decline of the nation evidenced by the immoral behavior of our civic leader and his various compadres.

Of course, other individuals and groups were critical as well, as they have a right to be. The moral values crowd used to be chatty.

Where are they now?

I ask this because sin does not seem to rise to the same level of offense for their own as it does for those whose political persuasion they don't share.

1. Gee, you know, in retrospect, Clinton was a saint compared to the
heretics we're dealing with today.

2. Dear Mrs. Lady:
What they are on about has nothing to do with anything moral or ethical. In fact, it is the complete antithesis.

It has everything to do with personal destruction in the service of gaining temporal power. The sooner you understand that and begin to speak to that fact with regularity, the better off we all will be.

4. I've been wondering, too.
"What shall we tell the children?"

5. Ah, you forget that Jackoff Jimmy says Republicans do God's will!
Republicans CAN get away with murder and Bible thumping dog beatin' Jimmy Dobson says that's OK!

Ask Rev. Sicko why he is silent over Killer Pickles, yet he was one of those who repeatedly accused Hillary of killing Vince Foster.

ER, Rev. Jackoff Jimmy, ain't YOU breakin a commandment there about false witnessing?
