And "cured" gay pastor Ted Haggard is number 11. Hat tip RussBlib.
The BEAST 50 Most Loathsome People in America - 2006.
15. James Dobson
Charges: Hey parents! Is your boy a bit...you know...fashion conscious? Is your daughter a little too...mechanically inclined? Well, not to worry! Your Tomboy--or Nancyboy--can still develop into a fine, upstanding, internally conflicted and miserable heterosexual, if you just follow the advice of twisted fundie shithead James Dobson. Meticulously avoiding the glaringly obvious fact that no child would choose to be gay, Dobson offers instructions on how to steer "pre-gay" kids right into the closet. Nothing triggers our gaydar like a guy that devotes himself to "curing" homosexuality, especially one that warns that same sex marriage "will destroy the earth."
Exhibit A: "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."
Sentence: Massive dildo falls out of pants leg onstage at the next "Justice Sunday" event.
