Are you making an argument for the sake of arguing?

I don't care if the specific people presented in this report were self-idenfified as conservative or not, but the hype/outrage generated by this insignificant material would only matter to the far right.

As for "evidence" watch Fox News its more than enough proof....and loverboy Hannity.... (triple eyeroll sarcasm, booyah!)

I'm making the argument that it's possible you are putting unearned burden on conservatives when it's possible they don't agree with the far right complaining on the subject or may not even be the ones complaining.

As you make mention of, FOX is the channel for people on the Right. But I haven't seen anything mentioning the program in the OP on Fox News show or on their website. Yes ABC is a liberal channel. Most any network or cable news not FOX is. But I haven't seen anything yet to support the claim that the ones doing the bitching are conservatives. They may be conservative on this issue (which is just retarded because it's an important issue), but having a conservative position and being conservative are not the same thing.

But like I said, I agree that it is likely the group is of a conservative nature. With ABC being a liberal owned company it would not make any sense for a liberal group to complain about their content. It's like a dog chewing off it's own leg out of boredom. It's something to do, but in the end it only slows you down.

You hit the nail right on the head Blues. On both counts.

If someone don't like what they see they can always change the channel.

They may have a stand on issues that you may not agree with but to overly generalize almost makes me want to think that you are a bit wacko yourself.

Personally I think the Christian Right is a hell of a lot more wacko than either of these associations that you referred to in your post.
Conservatives, the Christian Right, or whatever it is they want to be called today freak me out. Thus the groan. I can totally imagine some fat ugly Christian woman going utterly ballistic over this thing. Sorry, that's my mental picture. lol
