Hallmark channel flips, then flops on hate group's pressure over lesbian kiss commercial

One Million Moms is an anti-LGBTQ division of the American Family Association, listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. According to its website One Million Moms is "fed up with the filth many segments of our society, especially the entertainment media, are throwing at our children." What does One Million Moms consider filth? Certainly not our pussy-grabbing, thrice-married, cheating-on-his-wife-with-a-porn-star president. They love him to pieces.  Here's what they consider filth: a television commercial showing two women celebrating their wedding by kissing. One Million Moms threatened to boycott the Hallmark Channel for airing the commercial, and the poltroons at the network actually pulled the commercial. It didn't take them long to realize the utter stupidity of capitulating to the Sisters of Gilead. In short order Hallmark decided that they liked running the kissing ladies commercials after all and started re-airing them. Now everyone thinks the people over at Hallmark are idiots.

Because when people get married, they kiss. I knew that at 3.

While the ad should never have been pulled in the first place, #Hallmark has done the right thing by apologizing, reinstating the ad, and vowing to do better by working with ⁦@glaad⁩ to become more inclusive of the #LGBTQ community. #loveislove https://t.co/AHH2ckj9yt

Hallmark was smart because they know we can’t boycott a network we weren’t watching in the first place
