I watched this last night, and figure there's a lot going on behind the scenes, with ABC and the polyamorous family ganging up on Tea Party member Dr. Gina Loudon and her husband.

Anyone else watch the show last night?

The comments on Dr. Gina’s website tend to be pretty nasty, and don’t consider that ABC probably edited the show to show Tea Partiers in the worst possible light.

I didn’t but I will this weekend with on demand. I wanted to watch but found myself busy and saw that it was already 8:30 and didn’t want to watch just the second half. I love Wife Swap. I asked my wife if she wanted to do the show....lol. (Hit with a pillow). We are too normal for Wife Swap anyway. It would be a pretty boring episode...

I watched it just to see how they presented the TP-er wife. Badly, as usual. The editing was ridiculous and so choppy that you could tell it was deliberate.

Other than, “Look at me everybody. I’m on TV.”, why would anyone volunteer to subject themselves to this crap? Is Dr. Louden that dense that she didn’t realize she was being set up to look like a total idiot? Similar to all Tea Party activist. Disclaimer: i didn’t watch so I probably (again) don’t know what I’m talking about. Will “officials” find anything disturbing about the care and treatment of the child who has Downs? Kind of like all of a sudden the MSA or OSHA showed up in Gold Rush and the AK DNR showed up in Bearing Sea Gold and “officials” showed up in Mountain Men. As of yet they haven’t shown up in Tanana AK or in the bayous of southern Louisiana. That could say something. Things get lost in the swamp and there’s lot’s of bears around Tanana. Yeah, I know. I’m watchin’ too much “reality” tv. LOL!

I watched it. I agree that there must have been a lot going on that did not make it to the show. I wish that they had made it to the round table, but I guess what we don't know is what had influence on that. I hope we will get more info.

I don't watch reality tv, normally, and after watching that, I know why. The wacky liberal family was portrayed in a much more sympathetic light.

Shows like this are part of our moral decline, and conservatives shouldn’t be participating at all.

I watched that show and as soon as I saw the life style of those pathetic New Yorkers I knew it was a set up for the filth that is going on in this world today..These animals should have those children taken away from them..The little friend Ashley went to the house for a party and stayed..Now the three adults sleep in the same bed and sex all around woman on woman and man on both women..Ashley is a sick little girl..Those kids in that house do not know what a normal family is,they have been raised with three animals..

I watched part of it. What a nasty piece of work the husband was. He actually berated Gina as the crazy one and thought that his relationship with a wife and her lesbian lover was perfectly normal. Crazy stuff.

gAyBC and the polyamorous family:

 

"According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.
 
It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages.
 
The first stage being "demoralization".
 
It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism.
 
Most of the activity of the department [KGB] was to compile huge amount / volume of information, on individuals who were instrumental in creating public opinion.  Publisher, editors, journalists, uh actors, educationalists, professors of political science.  Members of parliament, representatives of business circles. 
 
Most of these people were divided roughly into two groups:  those who would tow the Soviet foreign policy, they would be promoted to positions of power through media and public manipulation;  [and] those who refuse the Soviet influence in their own country would be character assassinated OR executed physically, come Revolution.  "
--KGB Defector Yuri Bezmenov
--Soviet Subversion of the Free Press (Ideological subversion, Destabilization, CRISIS - and the KGB)

I have known John since he was an 18 year-old college freshman. Even then, he was a dedicated conservative. I did not see the episode because my DVR messed up. I can only assume that the Loudons went on the show to take their message beyond the usual audience.

“I never watch this show and I don’t even own a TV so I’m going to go out of my way and post a comment on a TV show thread that I’m as detached from TV and this TV show as much as possible - and so that every Freeper knows it!!”

Never fails. (I love this show, thanks Theo!)

Watching this crap is sort of morbid curiousity, isn’t it??

Why on earth would anyone sensable enough to be associated with the Tea Party participate in such a TV show and subject themself to immoral trash? Must pay really well...

We watched it. I assume the Loudon’s thought it would be an opportunity to showcase a normal, healthy family lifestyle. Instead it was used by ABC as an opportunity to screen an hour-long hit-piece on conservatives. The Loudon’s were portrayed as extreme right-wing Bible thumpers, narrow-minded and hateful. By contrast the language used to characterize the slime from New York was loving, tolerant, and accepting.
I agree that child protective services should have been called to remove those children. The Loudon’s clearly saw which way the wind was blowing and bailed out on the production. I’m sure that in retrospect they realize the folly of allowing the degenerate left to use them as it did.
