Political correctness is a disease that is born of liberalism. It is a cancer upon our society that needs to be cut out.

Manly men should be disgusted by the image of two men kissing.

I think a lot of people were.

"Message to viewers: Manly men should be disgusted by the image of two men kissing."

Message to homos: All sane men are disgusted by the image of men kissing.

Did you see the ad? It was hardly an advertisement for gays, in fact, it was the opposite, and very funny. As the headline says, it is anti-gay, if anything, but really no more than the normal reaction of two normal men to an uncomforable situation. Has everyone completely lost their sense of humor? Oh, and no animals were harmed in the making of that ad, either.

I thought that commercial was disgusting. Although it should never have aired, it was an appropriate decision to pull it.

Their advertising department should share the same fate as the homeless robot in that GM ad.

Because their commercials aren't funny?

So, gays are offended that every man in America wasn't swooning over the sight of two guys kissing?

Good grief.

I thought it was one the most humorous advertisements shown durring the Super Bowl. I actually rewound it and had my wife watch it. She thought it was funny, too. Kinda funny to see the Young Earthers and the queers join forces in opposition to this ad.

Methinks Mars' position of labeling the ad as 'anti-gay' is 'anti-metrosexual'. Ergo we must boycott the anti-metrosexual candy company.../sarcasm off
