Focus on the Family founder Dr. James Dobson announced he will be starting a new nonprofit group and will host a new radio program.

73-year-old Dobson will host the new radio program with his son, Ryan.

Dobson's Facebook page says the show will be a daily, 30 minute program to be carried on numerous stations. The show, "JCDs Family Forum," will be much like what has been on the Focus on the Family radio broadcast, including discussions of marriage, children, and finances.

Dobson will take over the new show in March 2010.

Dobson will leave Focus on the Family and his last radio broadcast with that organization will be at the end of February.

Jim Daly, president and CEO of Focus on the Family, says although Dobson is leaving the Focus on the Family broadcast, the organization will continue to grow and continue the work Dobson had started.

Dobson founded Focus on the Family in 1977.

And you, youi know nothing, need to learn how to spell. And if you learn to communicate just a fraction of how well Dr. Dobson does, maybe people will listen.

Gee whiz! Just what we need! Another self-righteous hypocrite from the radical right preaching to his dittoheads across the airwaves alongside Rush Limpbaugh! Maybe he can hire Mr. Haggerty; The former pastor from the new life church as his leading commentator now that Mr. Haggerty has been "HEALED" from homosexuality!

Dr. Dobson is, and has been, a faithful man to God, his wife, his family and all of us who want a future for our children, filled with godly decisions and just doing what is right, no matter who is watching. Keep up the good work because our marriages and children and grandchildren are worth it.
