I've got a friend working for Harpo and I called to find out why they would allow such a group of bigots to advertise during their show. Turns out they will NOT be advertising during Oprah. They were hoping to, but Harpo Productions declined to pick them up as a sponsor.

From the website:
The following factors can also contribute to the homosexual orientation.
* the individual person's self-will
* pornography
* media and culture
* spousal abuse in the home
* molestation and pedophilia
* parental adultery
* moral relativism
* seduction by peers
* chemical imbalances
* failure of leadership
Leadership? Like the Boy Scouts? Who?

I saw a bumper stick once that said:
"Focus On Your Own Damn Family!"
My sentiments exactly.

I noticed today when I went to Focus on the Faggot's website that they were doing this. I was pissed but thought I was the only one. Glad Andy put it out there.
Thanks Andy. Love your site.
