.....waiting for the usual personal attacks and straw men.
I'd like to get this correct.......
If someone on the left uses Wikipedia for reference it's
If anyone else uses it, it's

I've seen others use this and people say it's just not the real deal.........hopefully you don't see this as a personal attack

The above fact is true. Children need a father for discipline. Love is not enough. No father, no discipline.

I only know one child raised by two women, in and out of jail, in and out of relationships, currently 'at large'.

Yes, heaven forbid a chain of stores should be burdened with a sense of ethics!

Besides, you're wrong. If your targeted market segment likes the thought of a store telling bigots to go pound sand, it's perfectly sensible for the store to do so. The Million Moms sound like they're more of a Wal-Mart crowd, anyway.

This is considered within the typical range of being open about one's sexuality. When a gay person does this, this is seen as "flaunting" and "shoving homosexuality down people's throats". Like I mentioned before, there are plenty of ads that depict heterosexuals holding hands, in an embrace, sometimes even making out, and yet I have yet to hear any protest from Million Moms (or any other organization for that matter). Why is the standard different when it comes to same-sex couples?
It is a huge double-standard.

When the info on Wiki can be vetted from other reliable sources, why not use it?
All the vetted info can be found at the bottom of the page and examined.

Are you really basing your opinion of same-sex parenting off one family?

I also have personal experience that little girls who don't have fathers in their lives crave male attention.

One Million Moms should be less concerned with Lesbians appearing in ads at JCPenney and more concerned with the horrible fashion it puts out!
I will go to JCPenney for a toaster on sale but not to clothe me!

Children need love, stability, security. One parent can provide those things. 2 parents, all the better. The gender of the parents is absolutely immaterial.
