Procter & Gamble heard from the g-ys, then changed its rules

Company changed procedure after allowing g-ys time to call

May 6, 2008

Following its support for the h-mos-xual agenda, Procter & Gamble established a toll-free number for people to register their opinions for or against P&G’s promotion of the g-y agenda, including open mouth kissing between g-ys. It gave a toll-free number which was heavily promoted on g-y Web sites for a week to give those favoring the promotion of h-mos-xuality an opportunity to call. Monday, after AFA had put out the word that P&G wanted to hear from AFA supporters, P&G abruptly ended it.

AFA is encouraging supporters to call P&G and ask the company why it is promoting the g-y lifestyle and why it quit using the toll-free number to receive opinions only after AFA notified AFA supporters about it. We urge you to spend a few cents to register your complaint with P&G. Here is P&G’s corporate number to call: 513-983-1100. (Please get others to call P&G at this number!)

P&G has added h-mos-xual lovers to its soap opera “As the World Turns.” The soap opera now includes scenes of h-mos-xuals with passionate open mouth kissing. The motive behind P&G’s push is to desensitize viewers, especially younger viewers, to the h-mos-xual lifestyle. The ultimate goal of h-mos-xual activists is h-mos-xual marriage.


Take Action!
* Call the main number of P&G (513-983-1100). Call between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Central time.
* Forward this e-mail to family and friends and urge them to call.
* Reproduce this letter and distribute to others — Sunday School class, church, coworkers, etc. Ask your pastor to put this information in the church bulletin and newsletter.
* If you have not already done so, send an e-mail letter to P&G opposing its promotion of h-mos-xuality.
* Sign up to get Action Alert updates from the American Family Association on the P&G response. Sign up here to stay informed. (AFA.net).

11. Puritanical pornography
same deal as bleeping words out and hiding breasts (all the while using sex to promote every product from SUV's to toothpaste).

2. I see what's going on
You got on their newsletter for fans of "Wheel of Fortune". It's edited by GOP supporter Pat Sajak.

12. Maybe they're suggesting that g-ys are sacred and holy, just like G-d.

Hell, maybe they're talking about goys. :shrug:

13. AFA is a terrorist sleeper cell..

People with imaginary friends are the real issue.
