Focus on the Family--a bunch of grifters

I wrote earlier in the year about Focus on the Family's lies in 2008 about how Obama would destroy America.  Focus on the Family was wrong on all 34 predictions and yet will not apologize for their outright campaign of lies and fear.  Bill Maher called them grifters--which I believe to be true of Focus on the Family and many, many rightwing alleged Christian organizations.

The definition of a grifter is someone who makes money dishonestly, such as a swindler or in a confidence game.  http://www.thefreedictionary.com/grifter

Isn't that exactly what Focus on the Family is doing?  They are playing with people's hopes, but especially fears and show nothing for it but keep coming back for more cash.  They will burn in hell for their crimes.

Anyway, here is a link to Bill Maher taking Focus on the Family to task for their lies and not apologizing.  Beware there is some vulgar language in this piece.
