Education Secretary Takes Stand For Your Family; Bombarded By Homosexual Activists
American Family Association ^ | Donald E. Wildmon, Chairman AFA

Posted on 02/01/2005 6:59:20 PM PST by Iam1ru1-2

A spokesman for PBS said that the government-funded network had agreed not to air the cartoon. "Postcards From Buster" shows the title character, an animated bunny, on a trip to Vermont, a state that recognizes homosexual civil unions. The episode included two lesbian couples.

Spellings told PBS (1) that her department's seal or any statement linking the department to the show be removed, (2) that PBS notify its member stations the nature of the show, and (3) that a refund "in the interest of avoiding embroiling the Ready-to-Learn program in a controversy that will only hurt it."

PBS, unlike other non-commercial stations, receives hundreds of millions of tax dollars. Other non-commercial stations depend on their listeners for financial support. PBS's viewing audience is basically affluent and well educated, but give only a small amount to support PBS.

Secretary Spellings has been ridiculed in the media and bombarded by the homosexual community because of her stand. The Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest homosexual activist organization, blasted Spellings for criticizing the episode.

HRC's Winnie Stachelberg said, "The secretary's first act in office denies children an education about the diversity of American families. Teaching children about respect for differences promotes tolerance of their fellow human beings."

The homosexual community has long used PBS and public schools to promote their agenda.

Please send a thank you to Secretary Spellings for her bold stand. Homosexuals are using their public attack on Secretary Spellings to keep her from taking similar actions in the future and to scare others from following her lead. We must not let that happen.

Thanks for caring enough to stand up for your children and grandchildren.

Sincerely,

Donald E. Wildmon, Chairman, American Family Association

I am not so ready to hail her as a hero. That episode should never have been made and it should not have gotten this far. Of course the people with children are not going to like it. She was trying to get that episode under the radar and it didn't work.

I used to be very tolerant of people who liked to have sex with the same gender as they are themselves, but THEY turned it into a political radical thing.

I still believe that the homos can raise their children any way they see fit- and so will I. Nonsense like this sneaky children's cartoon encourages me to teach my children that homo activists are jerks who are obsessed with robbing people of their freedom to decide for themselves.

And I homeschool so I think I will start tomorrow.

If you read the article carefully ...

"The secretary's first act in office ..."

She was just sworn in yesterday!

Let's be careful who we "beat up" verbally! The woman did the right thing by pulling the plug ... and the homosexual radicals went crazy ... and the conservatives SHOULD BE thankful, not tossing stones!

I want to make a cartoon that shows that Hitler was a homo and he killed jews because of it. Think the government will fund it?
