It just amazed me that ABC Family Channel aired that movie. I'm a live and let live type of person, but I feel like those type movies should be saved for adults, if they so choose to watch.
ABC's so called Family Channel is a sham, in my opinion.

[Texas Eagle]

I'm not all that surprised. ABC owns Disney (or Disney owns ABC....I forget) and Disneyland and Disneyworld gives its employees who engage in homosexual sex acts health benefits for their partners in sodomy and Disneyworld hosts a Gay Pride Day every year. But they don't announce which day it's going to be on so normal people can't plan to not be there on that day.

We cancelled Showtime about six months ago because their programming was so bad that we hadn't watched it in three months.

Please take me back to the days when Disney was so innocent! I remember watching the Mousekateers when I was a little girl.....

I don't get it. How do you boycott something that you paid to sign up for?

I have never subscribed to it. My parents have a subscription to it at their home because of some package they got during a promotional event (substantially discounted fee, etc.) a year or so ago (a considerable time before the flap about The Reagans). My father says he's going to call up the cable company to drop that channel tomorrow. If they had kwnown ahead of time about some of the garbage that Showtime shows, I doubt they would have subscribed to it. He just wanted to know if anyone else were going to drop a subscription to it.

By the way, several months ago, he dropped his MCI long distance at the office. He dropped the service mainly because he almost always calls out of town numbers with his cell phone and saves hundreds of dollars a month in long distance fees. I happened to mention to him all the anti-American things Danny Glover, who did several commercials for MCI, was doing. When an MCI survey called to ask why he had dropped MCI's long distance service, he said it was because of the Danny Glover ads. The interview said, "Ooooh!" as if she had heard that answer several times and hung up.
