After remaining silent on the calls from hate group “One Million Moms” for JCPenney to fire Ellen DeGeneres as its spokesperson, the out comic has hit back at her detractors with a hilarious segment.
First, Ellen delivers the good news about California’s Prop 8 being declared unconstitutional. Then she moved onto the One Million Moms debacle.
“I usually don’t address my haters,” she joked. “But today, my haters are my motivators.” She continued:
“This organization thinks that I shouldn’t be the spokesperson because I’m gay. So, for those of you just tuning in for the first time, it’s true, I’m gay. I hope you were sitting down. I hate to break it to you this way. So they wanted to get me fired, but I am proud and happy to say that JCPenney stuck by their decision to make me their spokesperson. It’s great news for me, because I need some new crew socks.”
Oh, Ellen. Never change.
How about we take this to the next level?

I just laugh. These groups are the ones who say that we shove our sexuality down everyone’s throats, but when push comes to shove, who is it that is making someone’s sexuality make the news? Do they really think JCP hired Ellen because she’s gay?
Oh well, what with the progress in California and Washington, it’s hard to imagine these groups being around, or at least influential, for too much longer.
