Dobson e-mail painful: Letter on gays stirs unsettling memories for Perlmutter staffer
Jose Rodriguez stared at the computer screen in Democrat Ed Perlmutter's campaign office last Friday and read the letter circulating on the Internet from Focus on the Family founder James Dobson.

"Sen. Perlmutter has become a favorite of gay-rights organizations around the country," Dobson wrote. "They have given him significant financial support and have even hired homosexual youth to work on his behalf."

Rodriguez, a gay 22-year-old college graduate from North Carolina, began to realize this was a letter trying to portray him as a stain on the Perlmutter campaign.

Call Perlmutter, the letter said. "Don't let the abortion industry and advocates of homosexual marriage have their way in Colorado. Make your voice heard!"

1. .
Wow, this compassion and love! So classy.
And the Repubs are to blame for that kind of hate of the bigots and ignorants as well as they abuse it for political gains. That is shameful. And so mighty christian, right?

2. I'm so tired of the hate mongers
All they do is sit around working to spread their lies, their hate and their divisiveness. If they'd spend a tenth of that time and effort on helping people so many would have homes, food and jobs.

3. I am so sick and tired of hearing how people like Dobson
have values and I don't. People who vote for candidates who take hush money from pedeophiles don't get to lecture me about values.
