I'm about ready to stain some new doors (Douglas Fir wood). Does it make
a
difference whether I use water based or oil based stain?

Nope

That's right, since stain looks like sh*t either way. I wish more
people would buy the right wood in the first place.

Dave, aniline dyes might be a better choice if you MUST discolor the
wood. Then a couple nice coats of Waterlox will seal it nice and
tight.
