Vince Vaughn Film's 'Gay' Joke Has Hollywood Taking Sides

Director Ron Howard’s upcoming comedy “The Dilemma” came under fire after a trailer was released featuring the film's star Vince Vaughn’s character referring to electric cars as “gay.”

CNN host Anderson Cooper appeared on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” and denounced the language, the joke soon disappeared from the film’s trailer.

But an insider tells Pop Tarts it wasn’t Anderson-on-"Ellen" that initiated the change.

“The decision to change the trailer came two to three weeks prior to Anderson Cooper’s appearance on ‘Ellen’ after learning some people were offended, as well corresponding with GLAAD (The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation,)" said our source.

I saw a comedian the other day who had a bit in his act that was poking fun at Asian's. It was some of the funniest stuff that I have ever heard and every Asian they showed in the audience were laughing their butts off. He also poked at others including Hispanics which I am, and it was all hysterical. But go anywhere near gay people and activists and lawyers come out the wood works. This is ridiculous, but I know there is nothing else expected to come out of Hollywood.

Electric cars are gay. Ron Howard being skewered on the same day Mr. C departs? Something ain’t right in Denmark. Next thing you know Andy Griffith will be out supporting Sarah Palin. Shoosh, end times folks, cats and dogs living together.

Still waiting for Anderson Cooper to ignore his Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell orders from above.

When the lavender mafia refuses to “tell”, they have no right to use the media to demand that the military do so.

The public deserves to know why these are “big news items”. It’s because the journalists have an agenda that promotes their worldview.

If Anderson Cooper had any guts he’d come out of the closet.

Gay people can’t tolerate any jokes or criticisms because they are such incredibly miserable people. They are NEVER happy and they want to spread their misery to everyone.

I always look to Anderson Cooper for my moral guidance... but wait wasn’t it him who said:

Anderson Cooper: It’s hard to talk when you’re teabagging

He probably should have slandered white men. Or Christians.

That’s the safe route.

Most elctric cars are gay, but some electric cars can be cool. The Tesla Roadster goes 0 to 60 in 3.7sec. Image below.

The Tesla Model S is pretty sweet too.

What is gay is all the time is Political Correctness

Well, you ALL are under arrest. You can say ‘the g word’ but not ‘gay.’ And breaking the pc rules is forbidden. Don’t you know anything?

Such an unruly bunch We the People are.

Who would've guessed 1-3% of any population could make such a damn loud noise.

Like the yowling of the neighbor's scrofulous cat.
