This kind of crap comes from liberal college professors. I never even came close to saying I hate her. Liberals cannot discern the diffeence between hating the sin and loving the sinner.
It's not as if her sexual preference were dug up by some reporter who outed her. SHE decided to come out on her TV show. SHE decided to make that character in her TV a lesbian. SHE is the one who kisses kd Lang open mouth at the lesbian awards show. SHE is the one who showed up with her girfriend Ann Heche at many of the Hollywood red carpet events.
She is publicly flaunting sinful behavior. That is wrong. That is not good for society. It's all fine and dandy that she gives away cruises which were paid for by someone else, but it doesn't change the fact that she is a very public person and she is sending the wrong message.
Would you spend time here defending Larry Flynt or Hugh Hefner if they were the one's that handed over the cruises (which were paid by someone else)?
Some might consider the price of the cruise a little too high, in that they don't like who they would have to thank - an enemy of ever thing they are fighting for. But I expect they would not have been at an Ellen De Generes show anyway. Must have been that part of the military that voted for the traitor for President. They have no self respect anyway.
