Jesus' General

Jeffrey Toobin’s fascinating The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court (Doubleday $27.95) has everything any political junkie could want. With wit, lucidity and clarity, Jeffrey Toobin relates the history of recent Court history, recounts the major cases, and give incisive profiles of the men and women who serve on the court.
The New York Times Sunday review of the book (and I try not to read too many reviews before writing my own report, so as not to influence my own view) emphasizes a favorite Beltway game of guessing who amongst the Justices talked to Toobin.

Dr. Dobson And I Need Your Prayers

The last two weeks have been the worst I can remember in a long time for the pro-family, pro-life movement. A series of distorted media reports have tried to divide us. Christians and other values voters are taking verbal shots at each other over whom to support in the presidential race. And reporters are “licking their chops” at the dissention and disarray.

Dr. Jim Dobson, my longtime friend and ally, has taken all sorts of unfair hits from the Los Angeles Times and other media outlets. Some of those “hits” quoted unnamed “former associates.” One paper today took a shot at him and attributed it to me. The reporter admitted to me this morning that he made a mistake and will issue a retraction. But the damage was done. It makes me sick, ...   more »
