American Family Association has once again...

...shown Americans what a bunch of gay-bashing, hateful bigots they are!

A few years ago I decided to put myself on the email list of the AFA so I could see what these assholes send out to their whackos...and wow!...it's been quite a ride. For instance, this past summer ole Don Wildmon, who is the Founder of this hateful group, sent out letters insisting that his readers start the 'war on Christmas' debate and go after any company that refuses to put "Christmas" anywhere outside or inside their companies. It never ends with these people and they make sure to get the dialogue started months ahead of time too!!! Bunch of hateful weirdos they are...

Anyways, I just got their latest email and ole Don is going after Wal-Mart again because of Wal-Mart's refusal to be a bigoted, hateful gay-bashing company like Don and his group is, so Don's head is spinning on it's axis and fire is coming out of his mouth and ears!! Here's what the fire breathing dragon had to say about Wal-Mart:

Wal-Mart Rolls Out Red Carpet For Homosexual Marriage

Dear Kay,

When Wal-Mart announced their support for the homosexual agenda a few weeks ago, they meant what they said. You will remember that Wal-Mart asked for, and received, permission to join the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC). The company announced they were giving two large grants to NGLCC. The world's largest retailer was rewarded with a position on the board of NGLCC. Wal-Mart also announced they would give preference to homosexual-owned businesses in purchasing products.

Justin Nelson, president of NGLCC, said he expects Wal-Mart to use its influence to pressure suppliers like P&G, Johnson & Johnson, and Gillette to give homosexual businesses preferential treatment. Wal-Mart is also working on a plan to provide domestic-partnership benefits to homsexual employee "partners." The NGLCC is a leading promoter of homosexual marriage.

A quick search for books sold by Wal-Mart found the following related to the promotion of homosexual marriage:

What God Has Joined Together: The Christian Case for Gay Marriage

Gay Marriage: Why It Is Good for Gay, Good for Straights, and Good for America

Legalizing Gay Marriage

Why You Should Give a -amn about Gay Marriage

Civil Wars: A Battle for Gay Marriage

Gay Marriage and Democracy: Equality for All

Defending Same-Sex Marriage

Why Marriage Matters: America, Equality, and Gay People's Right to Marry

Gay Marriage, Real Life: Ten Stories of Love and Family

A quick search of Wal-Mart's website turned up the following number of items for sale:

Gay - 1148
Lesbian - 468
Transgender - 40
Bisexual - 38
Gay Marriage - 26


Donald E. Wildmon, Founder and Chairman


I'm no fan of Wal-Mart, but I have to say, I think it's terrific that this company, being as right wing as it is, has an open minded CEO and he understands that having gay employees or having distributors/manufacturers who have gay employees is not the end of the world!!!

As a liberal, I believe we all have a right to live free and without harm just because we're all different. I am not gay, but my cousin Johnny was (he died of AIDS in March of 2000 and he is still very much missed by all of us! He was the light of our family!) and I am so thankful that his 42 years on the planet were peaceful ones. For some reason, Johnny was never exposed to gay bashing and the hatred of the religious right. He had it good. I would have loved the opportunity to go shopping with him if he had found 'Mr. Right' (no pun...God no LOL). It would have been great fun.

So, I spit on the people at the American Family Association and this is why I have them under the "American Taliban" link on this blog. They truly are the American Taliban because they wouldn't think twice about stoning a gay to death in the streets, especially if it was a lesbian with her ankles showing from under her burka!!

Comments:
The American Family Association is nothing more than a creation of Dobson and Falwell.

They use the word family to portray to America that they are supposed to be better than anyone else.

Their leader was on Hardball during the Foley sex scandal and wouldn't denounce Foley or the Republican coverup.

I don't want to be part of this "family".
 
Me neither Larry. I like my family....full of fun loving rational and non-discriminating people!!!!

Yuck. I despise the AFA and all their hate.
