Associated Press - May 17, 2007 9:03 PM ET

An evangelical Christian leader says he won't vote for Rudy Giuliani if the former New York mayor wins the Republican presidential nomination.

In an online column for WorldNetDaily, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson calls Guiliani an "unapologetic supporter of abortion on demand" and domestic-partnership benefits. Dobson adds that there are other "moral concerns" with Giuliani, including that he's on his third marriage to "his mistress" from his second marriage and "appears not to have remorse for cheating on his wife."

Dobson said he was speaking as a private citizen, but his words carry considerable weight with the some seven million listeners to his radio broadcasts.

Dobson previously said he won't back John McCain because of the Arizona senator's sponsorship of campaign finance reform and opposition to a constitutional ban on gay marriage.

Dobson calls Guiliani an "unapologetic supporter of abortion on demand" and domestic-partnership benefits. Dobson adds that there are other "moral concerns" with Giuliani, including that he's on his third marriage to "his mistress" from his second marriage and "appears not to have remorse for cheating on his wife."

But the Bush regime should continue the torture and genocide in Iraq. Dobson has no opinion about that.

I don't know what Dobson's position on Bush's war may be. I suspect that he is supporting Bush because, he believes, Bush is nominating more judges that are opposed to abortion and pro-family and abortion and family issues are his main concerns. That's probably why his organization is called 'FOCUS on the FAMILY'.

I believe that most anti-war organizations, that are focused on ending the Iraq war, don't care much about limiting abortions or lowering the divorce rate.

Nevertheless, his own position is absolutely non-negotiable. As an adherent of the classic Augustinian "just war" theory, he is convinced that this is a case where the biblical and theological justifications for the use of force are fairly obvious.

Thank you for the interesting article. Is Dobson still making statements in support of the Iraq war? I am not following his organization much.

The event was a meeting of the Council for National Policy, a secretive club whose few hundred members include Dr. James C. Dobson of Focus on the Family, the Rev. Jerry Falwell of Liberty University and Grover Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform. Although little known outside the conservative movement, the council has become a pivotal stop for Republican presidential primary hopefuls, including George W. Bush on the eve of his 1999 primary campaign.

He's on the same page with the late Rev. Jerry Falwell. His position on the war has not changed.

Well... if he can help knock off McCain and Giuliani, I'm not complaining.
