If you think this lady is bad...

In case you haven’t heard the news, “family values” group One Million Moms urged its supporters to petition against Ellen DeGeneres being named the new spokesperson for JC Penney and demand that she be replaced by someone not openly gay, Radar Online reports. A statement on OneMillionMoms.com reads, “Funny that JC Penney thinks hiring an open homosexual spokesperson will help their business when most of their customers are traditional families.”

If these ladies think that hiring Ellen DeGeneres was a bad move on the part of JC Penney execs, here are five more companies these women might want to avoid, thanks to the risky, non-traditional and frankly UN-AMERICAN choices they’ve made for celebrity spokespeople:

Barnes & Noble
For hiring Jane Lynch (also a big ol' out and proud lez!) to shill the Nook. (It's okay, I bet these ladies don't read, anyway.)

Is the same as that “Million Moms” campaign where everyone was telling their birth stories?

This post is ridiculous. I personally am against homosexual relationships and against people who openly promote them. However I have absolutely nothing against a single one of the other ones you mentioned. I am not racist at all. I just have an opinion about issues that involve a moral choice. That being said I have no objection to them using any actress or actor to promote any product they choose. But to indicate that everyone that is against homosexuality is also stupidly bigoted and racist is just NOT RIGHT.
