Predictable.

The American Family Association has launched a boycott against Hallmark over the company’s new gay marriage greeting card line. [Good As You]

These people have become a parody of themselves.

I dismiss their petty boycott.

Maybe Hallmark should make a Very Special Moments card just for the religious right: I envision a front photo of misty sunbeams through tree leaves, with “Sorry You Hate Us” in over-wrought script. Inside:

We’re sad to hear
Your hate our cards
So go to hell
You bunch of ‘tards.

Since the asswipes aren’t the target market for the cards, what’s the problem? Just another way the homos are undermining “traditional marriages and families” I suppose. Get over yourselves … You don’t like them, don’t buy them.

Does Hallmark have a “GO F*CK YOURSELF homobigot” card?

As if Hallmark did not anticipate that they would catch hell from
the Christian right. I am sure Hallmark figured out that the potential financial benefits outweighed the potential consequences
from Christian bigots. After all its business. When did these religious organizations become so grandiose as to think that they can control everyone and everything? Religions eventual downfall
will come, not because people accept or do not accept homosexuality, or any other thing they preach against, but because people will eventually get tired of the tyrannical methods they employ to control everything and everybody.
