Action Alert: AFA at it again
1/24/2007 10:46:31 PM


With one of their typical, sensationalized headings (Ford Helps Sponsor Explicit, Sickening Homosexual Scene) the AFA (American Family Association – better known to many as Alarmingly Freaky Activists) has appealed to their supporters to take action against Ford Motor Company for sponsoring the January 16 episode of "Dirt," aired on FX.

Also on their list of their perceived, repulsive Ford Company offenses is (hold on to your seats and take a deep breath) they force employees to attend DIVERSITY TRAINING.

The purpose of this notice, which they ask their supporters to forward to friends and family, is to ask everyone to boycott and protest Ford Motor Company for helping to sponsor one of the “most explicit, sickening homosexual scenes ever shown on television”. Because it is SO explicit that they couldn’t even describe it in their mass mailing, they asked their followers to “trust them”, but did include a link to the clip for anyone willing to risk being disgusted to death.

Being of the rebellious, non-sheeple persuasion, and thinking it unfair to pass judgment or take action without seeing this with my own eyes, I registered with U-tube and braced myself. After all that trouble, I discovered I had already seen the clip.

It was not the most explicit scene ever shown on television. I’ve seen longer, more passionate kisses in wedding ceremonies. I didn’t see any skin. I did see two men kiss and their actions after the kiss suggested that something more was going to happen, just as I know something more is going to happen when the characters in soap operas engage in longer kisses, remove one another’s clothes, and fall onto a bed, couch, car hood, or rug.

I think the AFA claims are dishonest and purposely misleading but ask that you not take my word for it. View the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WM85xqGC03w HERE and decide for yourself if this is the most explicit scene you have ever seen on television.

If you agree with me that the AFA claims are dishonest, I hope you will notify their Chairman (name and address listed below), as well as FOX news, the Ford Motor dealerships near you, and Ford Motor Company.
