Misinformation, Dobson Style

In my ever so humble opinion, the Rev(?) James Dobson is one of the most morally bankrupt and evil men in American public life, so it comes as no surprise that this bastion of moral superiority (I mean, have ANY of these fundies idiots READ the New Testament?) should come out and lie to try and minimalize the Foley saga. From Media Matters:

DOBSON: We condemn the Foley affair categorically, and we also believe that what Mr. Clinton did was one of the most embarrassing and wicked things ever done by a president in power. Let me remind you, sir, that it was not just James Dobson who found the Lewinsky affair reprehensible. More than 140 newspapers called for Clinton's resignation. But the president didn't do what Mr. Foley has done in leaving. He stayed in office, and he lied to the grand jury to obscure the facts. As it turns out, Mr. Foley has had illicit sex with no one that we know of, and the whole thing turned out to be what some people are now saying was a -- sort of a joke by the boy and some of the other pages.
