On FOX no less...
Fear, bigotry, hatred and homophobia lost.
All those who ranted that such a thing, as what happened last night on prime-time TV would "destroy America", are now exposed for what they really are. People like Newt (thrice-married adulterer) Gingrich, Sarah (unmarried pregnant daughter) Palin, Tony (gay kids should just kill themselves) Perkins, and Maggie (hating people is what I do best) Gallagher all got their asses kicked last night. Their fear mongering, lies and outright hatred of other Americans failed.
So what was it that defeated them? What showed the world that everything these hate mongers have said is just ignorant bile with no basis in reality or truth?
Just a tiny little television show.... called Glee
Over the course of today there have been a slew of reactions across the blogosphere, the vast majority of which have are overwhelmingly positive. There were a few comments posted on the Los Angeles Times media blog from people claiming to be "concerned parents" who didn't feel it was appropriate for teens to see two boys kissing. One commenter claimed the kiss was too "confusing" for her teenage daughter.
Really?
If these kids are any indication, it's safe to say that the teens of America were not at all confused by last night's episode.
