Last Saturday, I turned on the TV to watch a Ask This Old House episode

The show started with the plumber (Richard?) entering a house occupied by two women. When the first woman introduced the second one as "my wife", it was off with the tv and back to the computer.

I thought that there was suposedly a homosexually oriented channel on pay TV now. If so, why don't folks air their homosexual pandering commercials and programmes there. Oh wait, that would mean that their agenda would stall...

On what channel did you see this commercial, may I ask?

...Add Palm Springs to the Banned list. This ad was on the Orbitz site.

Gay couples are of course disproportionately double income, no kids. Which means that they have a lot of money to spend. That's why they concentrate in expensive cities so much.

Orbitz runs ads aimed at a variety of audiences, not just homosexuals. I've seen all kinds of Orbitz ads on different cable stations during the past year.

I've have no interest in their services regardless of their advertising target demographics.

[I still care]

Last year we saw one of the Orbitz gay commercials. It was one of the puppet ones, where one was staring at another male puppet through the binoculars. I was watching with my teenage boys, and we all looked at one another - did you see what I saw?

Needless to say, when I went to the computer looking for a plane flight this year, Orbitz was one of the ones I skipped. I doubt they care, gays are one of their target audiences. They have too mamy popups also.

They are free to market to whomever they please. I am free to go out of my way not to ever use their service.

What a bunch of homophobes! What's your rational? "I don't use Orbitz, cause they cater to queers!" You better lock the doors and not leave your house, you might cross paths with a gay person. Thanks for living up to the conservative/Republican stereotype.

Homosexuals and everybody else should keep their sexual activites, preferences etc where it belongs...in the privacy of their own home and stop trying to push it on people. It's a free market. Orbitz can market their services to homosexuals, shuffleboard players, dog lovers (as in pet owners), cultists, lawnmower technicians or whomever the heck they want to.

I saw that commercial the other day at work.....

For a second I thought.."Naw, I didn't just see that, did I?"

Then I just filed the company name....under "Who NOT to Ever do Business With"

FWIW-
