You notice how just about any group with the word, 'Family' in its name is for bigoted, hypocritical, prejudiced values? Yes. I wouldn't say they "caved like ninnies," simply because from their point of view, the people who will bancott if they run the ads are greater in number than the people who would bancott if they didn't. The goal is always "maximizing profits," not "getting more than adequate profits." This. Unfortunately a lot of companies do put profit before values.

"I'm telling Mom" is a more serious threat than a boycott. Boycotts never achieve anything. What I have learned from this is that I should call their mothers.

Funny. You were almost pretty, then you opened your mouth and showed us what "ugly" really means. And I'm sure you'd still be saying that if they pulled their advertising from a show about Christians. That's right! You should only lay down to the real religious oppressors. Too bad you didn't learn anything while watching. You know what the cumulative result of prejudice and hatred is? Hint: You witnessed it ten years ago while you were in New Jersey.

I like how number 5 is about not pushing religion on others, and several of the surrounding entries use the word CHRISTmas in order to EMPHASIZE CHRISTIANITY.
Lots of them are of course moronic, but 20 strikes me as particularly hypocritical.

I like the one who talked about freedom of speech.

John Stewart just put out an episode tearing down the whole argument the FFA are giving. I'd link it, but due to being in Canada, I'm not sure what website the majority of you can watch it. Just look for the Dec 13 episode.
