... person as myself. Schaeffer, however, chooses to focus his own guilt-by-association Palin smear on Marvin Olasky, who as former editor of World magazine was for many years Lynn Vincent's boss. (Readers are invited to smile with me at the irony of this. Would you wish to be held accountable for everything your boss ever said or did? And did I happen to mention that I spent 10 years...

... Daniel Akin along with Gary Bauer, Chuck Colson, James Dobson, Jonathan Falwell, Harry Jackson, Marvin Olasky, Tony Perkins, Alan Sears, Mark Tooley, George Weigel and nine Catholic archbishops.
