Dear fellow bears
Foundha flyer this morning at a local bear's Bagel shop, from a nearby
Baptist church. Uh oh...
It turns out there is an article in today's "USA Weekend" magazine about
"Baptists, Gays, and the Disney Boycott". USA Weekend gets inserted in
the Sunday paper in 3/4 of the major markets in the US. If you didn't know,
the Southern Baptists are boycotting Walt (Disney, not my Walt) because
they DARE to offer same-sex health coverage. Shit happens. Anyway, USA
Weekend is asking your opinion about the Southern Baptist boycott of gay-
friendly Disney. The
church just handed out a couple hundred flyers telling people to call the "I
wanna boycott"
poll for USA Weekend.
Now you know the Baptists. They aren't bastions of independent thought,
so they just do what they're programmed to do. Kinda like Windows95 if it
actually worked.
To cancel out the local church of, would you please vote
"NO, DO NOT BOYCOTT DISNEY": dial 1-800-446-8406 BEFORE July 24 (Thursday
).
Your name/phone number WILL NOT be added to any mailing list, and all you
get is a recording. Also, only ONE VOTE per phone line is counted. If you
have two lines at home, one from each would be neat. (Same goes with
multiple lines at work, cell phones, fax lines, etc.)
