A Money Grab For The Family?

Displayed Prominently On The FOF website. It seems Dobson has found a way to whore more money for his Church built on fear, uncertainty, an doubt. Yes right now even non-Katrina charities can... well lets let them tell us:
The Hurricane Katrina disaster has dramatically affected not only those living along the Gulf Coast, but Americans all across the country.

In an unprecedented move, Congress has recently made temporary tax law changes to encourage more charitable giving. The Katrina Emergency Tax Relief Act of 2005 (KETRA) includes a number of important provisions pertaining to charitable giving. Among these provisions are incentives for taxpayers who give gifts of cash between August 28 and December 31, 2005. It is important to note that KETRA is not designed to benefit only those charities specifically involved in hurricane relief efforts. Rather, one of the goals of KETRA was to ensure that charities in general don’t suffer from a downturn in giving as they did following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Well, isn't that interesting, because as FOF points out :
Focus on the Family is not a disaster relief organization and is no longer acting as a conduit for donations to the relief efforts. (Link)
Nice, if I were a different kind of person I might insinuate that FOF was engaging in a MONEY GRAB THAT WOULD DENY MONEY FROM DISASTER RELIEF AGENCIES.

Hey Dobson, I hear there is going to be a Teletubby/Spongebob Gay Marriage Ice Spectacular why don't you go take care of that for us.

There! That should keep him busy for a while.
