I think a coordinated activism would help. If we're watching a show and it's pushing things we just don't want, take note of the sponsors and post them. Let's all write and politely tell them our concern and then boycott those who ignore us. Money talks. If they lose money, they won't support these programs. Without support, the shows go away. It's the only power we have. Let's use it.

yes, it probably will take a lot of work on our part. But we gotta stop being silent.

In recent years I have been turned off by so many shows that I had previously enjoyed. The insertion of the gay agenda in any form makes me turn off and tune out permanently. What I have not done and will now do is let my feelings be known by contacting the station and more importantly, the sponsers. Being a 'silent martyr' in these situations does nothing to help turn things around. It's time for us to become as militant as the gays are (within the law) and get OUR points across.

The problem is that even CONSERVATIVES will rarely participate in a serious boycott. Pick a major manufacturer of household goods, and see how many people right here, people who would no doubt agree on the moral issue in play here, will REALLY stop buying a certain brand of dishwashing detergent, or shampoo, or toothpaste, or soup.

I do agree wholeheartedly with you, and I will personally participate in an organized plan, but I just don't believe enough will do so to make a difference. I desperately want to be wrong, but the battle for the heart and soul of this country has been fought over the past several decades. Sadly, we lost. A country that will elect Bill Clinton twice is a country without a moral center.
