To hell with being a good Samaritan - Dobson bails on Haggard

meanwhile, back in the land of the tawdry, the country's top evangelical just can't seem to find the time to help out his fallen brother...
Citing a lack of time, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson withdrew Tuesday from the team overseeing counseling for the Rev. Ted Haggard, the evangelical pastor who was fired amid allegations of gay sex and drug use.

"Emotionally and spiritually, I wanted to be of help — but the reality is I don't have the time to devote to such a critical responsibility," Dobson said.

and they live in the same friggin' town... haggard's new life church is even in the same part of town as the fof hq... the two other members of the team are in different parts of the country, fercryinoutloud, but dobson just can't seem to find the time...
The other two members of the team, Pastors Jack Hayford of The Church on the Way in Van Nuys, Calif., and Tommy Barnett of First Assembly of God in Phoenix, declined to comment.

how totally pathetic...
