Well, Olbermann's smirk will soon be gone. Dr. Dobson sent some of his best intellectual warriors out to do battle with him. Poor Olbermann. The result ain't purdy. Here are a few quotes from the emails he received:
— Chris, Denver, North Carolina:
“P.S. I think Jesus said it best when he said, ‘Get behind the (sic) Satan.’” Right, kids! Come on and show your support!
— Dee, Hixson, Tennessee:
"Your prejudism is definately showing." I can't even contemplate what people who oppose prejudism would be called.
— Lewis, Walla Walla, Washington:
"I am writing to express my opposition to the 'SPONGE BOB' TYPE VALUES THAT ARE TRYING TO BE TAUGHT in education today." Just because you put it in them big letters, Lewis, still doesn't mean it's English.
— S. Stephanie, Shady Valley, Tennessee:
"I won’t respond to any of this about Dr. Dobson, you people aren’t worth the time of day!!!" Umm, Ma’am, I hate to break it to you, but you just did respond.
— Tami & Eric, Dieterich, Illinois:
"It came up a long time ago that Spongebob was gay. It is a theory not a fact. It is a general belief among society that Spongebob is gay." It’s good that even at this late date we can learn where America's "general beliefs" are kept: Dieterich, Illinois.
— Pam, Estes Park, Colorado:
"Our family is deeply concerned by your callous remarks about Dr. Dobson. I believe him to be correct in his assumption of homosexual references in the show. We have watched this cartoon for years and recently, it has appeared to us to be more homosexual in nature. There's several episodes where I just sat there and thought, this is really, really weird. I couldn’t get over the gay undertones." Hang on - Dr. Dobson insists he never said anything about the character or the show or the videotape being "gay" - he claims he was only questioning the motives of the foundation that distributed the video. Gee whiz, if some of his supporters read what he wrote and inferred Dobson was criticizing the show for having "gay undertones," then, golly gosh, didn’t Dr. Dobson infer that there was something untoward about the show and the character? At least he did to Pam.
— Loretta, Vancouver, British Columbia:
"I knew when I herd your reports about Spong Bob… I needed to ivestigate further… and sure enough you not only left out the most important part of the story, but that misrepresented Dr. J. Dobson. I feel that we need to protect the inocence of children. And I feel that right as a parent is being taken away by Homosexuals who slip there docterin in on the sly…" I wish some homosexuals would have slipped in some grammar docterin’ during your inocence.
— Todd, Middletown, Ohio:
Todd's 'subject' line said it all: "Stupid Intellegenece."
