Obama waffle story won’t die

Christianity Today September 24, 2008

James Dobson scolded Whoopi Goldberg and ABC’s “The View” for linking him and Focus on the Family to Obama Waffles, a product sold at the Values Voter Summit earlier this month (See CT’s earlier coverage).

Goldberg linked Obama Waffles to Focus on the Family last week on their show.

“We had absolutely nothing to do with the Obama Waffles,” Dobson said. “This is a classic example of the liberal media attempting to marginalize us and other conservative voices in a political season.”

David Waters writes on the Washington Post website:

“Conservative bias meet liberal bias. Goldberg and company apparently didn’t bother to check whether Dobson actually was involved in the gag (he wasn’t). Dobson didn’t bother to mention that the two men who created Obama Waffles used to work for Focus on the Family.”
