CBN (Christian Broadcasting Network), The Family Channel, The Fox Family Channel and The 700 Club:

...In production since 1966, it is one of the longest-running television programs in broadcast history. The 700 Club can be seen weekdays in 96 percent of U.S. television homes, and has an average daily audience of nearly 1 million viewers. It is currently hosted by Pat Robertson, Terry Meeuwsen, Kristi Watts, and Gordon P. Robertson, two of whom (one male and one female) will host on any given day...

CBN Broadcasts currently reach over 100 nations in dozens of languages, and are viewed by more than 360 million people each year. CBN's primary strategy is to develop television shows produced by local staff in selected countries. Programs are culturally sensitive, relevant to the ethnic audience, and presented in their native language...

Changing The Family Channel Cable Network Plans To Expand Programming


The number of cable subscribers grew from 28 million in 1985 to 49.6 million in May 1990. The network, the nation's 10th largest cable operation in terms of viewership, is carried on cable systems available to 55 percent of all American homes.

In the 1990s as the GOP was taking over just about everything, it was said the program reached nearly 50 million American homes. It migrated to various networks, such as FOX, ABC and Disney. This is the block of voters that powers the GOP.

and that's why they oppose immigration so vehemently...

They fear losing power (to wreck everything for profit).

They are in every state and making laws and a mess for Democrats. I agree with the rsason you give but they are wreaking havoc now. We can't rest because they won't. I even see more of them in my once thoroughly blue area, pushing their regressive measures and sabotaging us. Last election was very close, too close. A cornered animal is very dangerous. And they are not all old and dying off. There is an entire generation of them since Reagan. We must do all we can to encourage and support the young people who are not following their path. They are the future, and a better one than we've seen for a while.

That sounds so totally like what Jesus would have said about Obama. He would have been flabbergasted about him trying to tear down the rich.
