The only thing those television shows do is 1) make people who were polled think that 30% of all American's are homosexual (actual figure is 3%); 2) lead people to accept the false premise that homosexuality is normal (if it were, why would Hollywierd have to push it so hard to get people to accept it); 3. It will turn the American public more against Hollywierd. Are their movies selling now? Not so much, yet movies like Fireproof and Courageious are selling and getting awards. Of course Glee is going to have a homosexual biase: one of the actors, the blonde woman, is homosexual. No, America will turn off their TVs and vet movies form now on, unlive the media with O'Bama, and the divisions that had started to go away will be rebuilt.

No one will care if you stop watching. You are as silly as liberals who said they would leave the country if Bush was reelected in 2004.

Hollywood Won 2012?

The television industry loves to claim that all of the sex, violence and foul-mouthed language it displays has zero harmful effects on children. On the other hand, they would never dream of telling their advertisers that their paid messages on TV have no effect. So does the entertainment industry have an impact or doesn't it?

The answer is that Tinseltown certainly has an effect, and when that effect is felt in the political arena, the hell with pretending they don't. They openly celebrate.

After the 2012 election, the surprising (if narrow) victories for liberals drew a thumbs-up commentary from former...
