Dobson served with FOIA request

Atheist Group Files FOIA Action to Force White House Disclosure of “Dobsongate” Records

An Atheist civil rights group announced today that it has filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to force the release of any documents and other records released by White House senior advisor Karl Rove to James Dobson and other evangelical leaders in an effort to boost support for Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers.

Last week, Dobson – head of the “Focus on the Family” group – boasted that he was “privy” to “confidential” information that led him to support the Miers nomination, and that the insider information originated with administration operative Karl Rove. Rove is already the subject of a federal grand jury probe in another matter for his alleged leaking of the identity of a CIA agent. </i>

Gonna be interesting to see what Mr. “Show your son your penis” heard from the Rove White House.
