Wow, it took Don Wildmon and the wingers at American Family Association almost no time to go ballistic over Hallmark Greeting Cards' introduction of gay marriage cards to it line of offerings. I expected it to take a week or two, not a matter of days. All too typically, Wildmon is not accurate in the fear mongering information released to his lemming like followers:
*We've all given or received Hallmark Cards – remember their slogan – "when you care enough to send the very best." But promoting same-sex marriage for profit is not the very best for families or our nation.
*
Hallmark is a private company obviously driven by greed. Let them know you do not appreciate Hallmark promoting a lifestyle which is illegal in 48 states. American Greeting Cards, Hallmark's competitor, does not offer same-sex marriage cards.
*
I'm not sure where the "lifestyle which is illegal in 48 states" comes from. The sodomy laws were struck down nation wide by the ruling in Lawrence v. Texas, and a number of states have civil unions besides the two states that now allow full marriage rights to same-sex couples. Or maybe Wildmon is only voicing wishful thinking on his part since he advocates re-enacting the sodomy laws.
