Dobson is one of America's biggest hate peddlers, so I'm happy that his hate-group is falling on hard times. I torn on the employees. I'm sure most of them are not as hateful as their leader, but they did choose to work for a hate-based group. And if you do that, I just don't think I can scare up the empathy for your
plight:
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.
...
This is the third year that Focus has laid off employees due to budget cuts. In its heyday, the ministry, which relocated to Colorado Springs from Arcadia, Calif., in 1991, employed more than 1,500 people. Many of those employees worked in mailroom and line assembly jobs, processing so much incoming and outgoing correspondences that the U.S. Postal Service gave Focus its own ZIP code.
Especially after this:
In all, Focus pumped $539,000 in cash and another $83,000 worth of non-monetary support into the measure to overturn a California Supreme Court ruling that allowed gays and lesbians to marry in that state.
Which translates to this:
The cash contributions are equal to the salaries of 19 Coloradans earning the 2008 per capita income of $29,133.
No word if Dobson took a pay cut to "help his Family"...
