Dr. James Dobson Condemns Abuse of Impeachment Inquiry to ‘Score Political Points,’ Calls on Politicians to ‘Seek the Good of the Nation’

October 25, 2019 — Dr. James Dobson, president and founder of the James Dobson Family Institute, issues the following statement in response to the cynical use of the impeachment inquiry by certain self-seeking politicians:


“Over the last several weeks, we have witnessed the dark side of our political process in action. It is abundantly clear that certain politicians are more concerned with using the impeachment inquiry to score political points rather than to honor our constitutional system and seek the good of this nation.

“Recently, the American people have had a front-row seat to an ongoing media circus, featuring calculated leaks, endless speculation, and behavior we would admonish in our youngest children. Ours is a government of the people, by the people and for the people. I urge Americans to contact their representatives and demand that they start thinking more about their country and less about their thirst for political power. And then pray! Pray for our country, pray for all of our leaders, and pray for God’s will to be done.”
