Anyway, while you’re correct, their job is to deploy their particular brand of crazy, they need people to make that happen. Now, no matter if you’re making cars or wacky statements about the gays, you still need people to go about your business. But somewhere along the line, FOTF lost sight of that and spent so much money going after a gay marriage issue in another state that they had to lay off a bunch of people. In any other company, this type of behavior would get you shit canned, but instead, the people running the show there were given an even larger donation to run a super bowl ad.

Now, I will give you the idea that this will in fact bring in a lot of dough for them, but given this organization’s record, it won’t be used for recovery, but to spend unwisely until even more people lose their jobs.

You can question if CBS looks like a pack of right wing assholes all you like, but given the fact that only the extreme right thinks that there is a liberal slant in everything else but FAUX, I would think you would be in the minority.

Not only is it OK, it’s what people handing over the $ intend them to do, get the message out with no concern as to how many people it employs. In fact, I would be willing to bet that many people think this is their wisest spending decision- by your same bailout=money back in spades, then for focus on the family mass market super bowl ad will likely mean getting donations in spades, which can then be used for more ads, not to employ more folks. Honestly, if one person could get the message out as effectively by himself, would people donate less? Doubt it.

I question the notion that CBS looks like a pack of right wing assholes as a result- in fact I would say they are probably more liberal as is typically the case with media bias (CBS is not FOX) and took a conservative ad because they are proving more important than their politics is the almighty dollar, they are greedy TV executives. If the policy had changed during good times, then it would look like they approved of the message.

lol

Lil oversensitive about the champ thing. While the “pops” thing was cute I’m female.

Focus on the Family's (possessive) money can come from pixies and it still wouldn't make it OK for them to use it to spread the word with a massively expensive Super Bowl ad when they had laid a bunch of people off work… especially since they ad isn't going to help them sell more product. Maybe they'll see some more donations from this, but given their history of poor spending decisions, they'll probably screw that up, too.

Now these Most Americans did not want the bailout, but then again, this group has a memory of about a second and a half and forgot that generally, when we bail out someone, we get our money back in spades, like we're already started to see happen with the banks. I'll tell you who did want it, all the people that Chrysler kept in employment from not shutting down.

And, why yes, I did see that the policy changed and if you would have paid attention you would have seen that my point was that this was ALL ABOUT MONEY and had little to do with the message that this goofy ad was throwing out there. The problem is that the policy needed to change during the good times, not just the bad, so CBS just looks like a pack of right wing assholes rather than greedy TV executives.

But, thanks for stopping by… um, “Pops”…
