From The Colorado Independent

UPDATE: Focus on the Family announced this afternoon that 202 jobs will be cut companywide ? an estimated 20 percent of its workforce. Initial reports bring the total number of remaining employees to around 950.

Evangelicals will be amongst the hardest hit by the economic downturn. So you you can expect those funds to these whack-job organizations to dry up and blow away in the wind. Poof.

We’ve lost over 50 million fellow Americans through what’s known as “choice”…

With the “messiah’s” passion to let newborn babies die on the table after they’ve survived a botchced abortion, I know many will sleep better…

I guess he's both unemployed and mental, eh?)<br /> <br /> I'm happy to see some pragmatism coming from the anti-abortion camp. I'd like to see the number of abortions reduced, too, and supporting pregnant women is the way to do it. A blogging friend of mine who happens to be a pastor in the mid-west was a huge supporter of Obama because it was clear that he'd actually do more to create a culture in which life is valued and abortions will be reduced. And he wasn't alone. There are reasonable people among the churched who understand the issue in all its subtleties; it's why Obama won. (Lordy, this phucker is tiresome.

Seriously, though, the rate of miscarriage, or spontaneous abortion, is at least 25%.
