<p>After years of softening up by the walking hairpiece with teeth known as Sean Hannity, it was my turn to challenge Fox&#8217;s in-house liberal Alan Colmes on his nationally syndicated radio talk show. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="text-align:center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="533" height="300" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="src" value="http://downloads.cbn.com/cbnnewsplayer/cbnplayer.swf?aid=10545" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="533" height="300" src="http://downloads.cbn.com/cbnnewsplayer/cbnplayer.swf?aid=10545" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></div>
<p>Pat Robertson understands traditional values &#8212; perhaps better than anyone else. The conservative evangelical founder of the 700 Club knows that women should submit to their husbands, that God thinks that assassinating foreign leaders is OK and that evangelical Christians in the liberal United States are just like Jews in Nazi Germany.*</p>
<p>But Pat is a tolerant man. He spoke of the redemptive quality of God&#8217;s love when confronted with the evils of men having their timbers shivered by Jack Sparrow at Disney World during &#8220;Gay Days.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>I would warn Orlando that you&#8217;re right in the way of some serious hurricanes, and I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;d be waving those flags in God&#8217;s face if I were you, This is not a message of hate &#8212; this is a message of redemption. But a condition like this will bring about the destruction of your nation. It&#8217;ll bring about terrorist bombs; it&#8217;ll bring earthquakes, tornadoes, and possibly a meteor.</p></blockquote>
<p>It is precisely because of Pat&#8217;s stronger-than-average grasp of traditional values, that I was thrilled to find out that we were the <a href="http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/us/2009/September/Calif-Man-Wants-to-Ban-Divorce-/" target="_blank">lead news story</a> on Pat&#8217;s Christian Broadcast Network! I was so excited that I could have kissed Pat &#8212; and maybe taken him for a trip on <em>Mr. Toad&#8217;s Wild Ride</em>.</p>
<p><em>*All real Pat Robertson positions</em></p>

While I was deeply offended by the sarcastic tone put forth by the news bunny, I think the most important thing was to get our ideas in front of a nationwide audience.</p>
<p>There isn&#8217;t much new content here, since they basically repackaged the News10 story and made it shorter. But now that the national media has seen the passion and righteousness of our cause, it&#8217;s only a matter of time before we&#8217;re on <em>Face the Nation</em>.</p>
<p>P.S. &#8211; We&#8217;re hosting the video on our new <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/RescueMarriage">YouTube channel</a>.<br style="clear:both;" />.</p>

I haven&#8217;t been able to sit down all day&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;due to the traffic that came our way after we were <a href="http://www.boingboing.net/2009/09/10/interview-with-john.html" target="_blank">featured on the front page</a> of <em>BoingBoing: A Directory of Wonderful Things</em>.</p>
<p>BoingBoing linked to <a href="http://www.cockeyed.com/citizen/divorce/divorce.php" target="_blank">the interview we did with Cockeyed.com</a>. Cockeyed.com linked to us. And that spillover traffic was still  almost enough to kill the site. We flipped a bunch of switches behind the scenes so hopefully that won&#8217;t happen again.</p>
<p>Skip the interview if you have already read it, but there are some <a href="http://www.boingboing.net/2009/09/10/interview-with-john.html#comments" target="_blank">fantastic comments</a> on the BoingBoing article. Those are worth the price of admission alone.</p>
<p>EDIT: We also got <a href="http://www.fark.com/cgi/comments.pl?IDLink=4629581" target="_blank">FARKed</a>. We had a really, really good time last night&#8230;</p>

And no one has helped the rash spread faster than our good friends over at &#8220;Twitter.&#8221;</p>
<p>We looked into getting our own Twitter account, but then discovered that we had a better attention span than an over-caffeinated squirrel &#8212; so were disqualified for medical reasons.</p>
<p>But for those of you on stimulants or off your meds, check out the following Twitter searches to see what has been twatted about us:</p>

I can&#8217;t tell you about the first one, yet. But the second was an online chat with Rob Cockerham of Cockeyed fame. We covered the main points of the initiative and what we hope it will accomplish</p>
<p>Becasue Rob is a machine that doesn&#8217;t appear to need sleep, he posted the entire interview on his site late last night. It was done viat Gtalk, and you can play a fun game where you try to spot my typos.</p>
