One Million Mean Girls

Okay, can we talk for a minute about these One Million Moms?  You know, the ones who are boycotting/protesting JCPenney because they hired Ellen to be a spokesperson.  In general, people's ignorance has never been anything that surprises me, but for some reason these  broads just set me off.  Maybe it comes with age, but the acceptance of ignorance is harder and harder for me to hear, or maybe it's because I know that One Million Moms ( I've heard that they are really only 40,000, so come on ladies....isn't one million a bit of an exaggeration?)is made up primarily of those high school mean girls, who pick on the weaker people to make themselves feel better about themselves. (You know the one's who are popular in high school, only to find that life beyond high school can be very cruel...it's called karma ladies)  Did I spell karma correctly? 

Always one to consider both sides, I went to their little website and couldn't believe the front page was a rundown of all the things they want people to boycott.  Macy's (because their wedding registry clearly showed...gasp 2 Men), JCPenney (for the Ellen thing) and Modern Family because there was a swear word or something.....ladies you exhaust me, but okay.  Let's just say you are right and JCPenney was to go ahead with their plans to put Ellen and Portia in lingerie in a loving embrace during a commercial that I'm sure will most definitely air during Saturday morning cartoons.  Let's consider a new spokesperson...Okay, here we go....Oh, I know how about M.I.A., a nice young rapper that young kids today can admire.  What?  oh, yes, that whole Superbowl, flip the bird thing....okay, okay, lets think.  I've got it.  How about they hire wholesome Hanna Montana herself, Miley Cyrus.....oh, that's right, I forgot about those pictures of her with the bong, oh and the latest one of her licking the penis cake....there is someone for your children to aspire to be!  Okay, Okay, I give up ladies.  Who should the spokesperson be? 

Let's move on.  Ladies, it's 2012.  The nice married, gay couple that moves in on your street will soon blend in with the couple whose husband beats his wife, or the nice couple with the teenage son who is selling drugs to your beloved children after school, or maybe even a serial killer who is chopping people up and putting them in his freezer ( I bet Jeffrey Dahmer's neighbors wouldn't have liked Ellen for JCPenney's either).  What I'm really saying ladies is "get over yourselves".  There is way more to boycott in life than who someone that has nothing to do with you chooses to love.  You should instead be taking the responsibility to teach your children respect, acceptance and kindness to others...because, 40,000 moms, in the future when your son or daughter comes to you and tells you that they are gay, your one hope should be that the world they live in will show them kindness and acceptance.
