So the ever"loving" American Family Assholes are apparently upset that Hallmark will be selling Gay Marriage cards.

This is their letter they want you to send.

Dear Chairman Hall:

I am surprised that Hallmark is promoting an unhealthy lifestyle which is illegal in 48 states. There was a time Hallmark told us to send the very best. Sorry to see you have taken a giant step down. No more.

American Greeting Cards, your competitor, will be getting my business.


THIS however is my letter.

Dear Chairman Hall:

I am surprised that Hallmark didn't include Gay Marriage cards sooner. There was a time Hallmark told us to send the very best, and now they mean it. Great to see you have taken a giant step up. I will always make sure I buy Hallmark!




Thank you AFA for allowing me to use your site to send wonderful letters to people who deserve it!


Feel free to send one. http://www.afa.net/Petitions/Issuedetail.asp?id=329

Most of the cards out there are written vague enough that they would work just fine for a gay couple. The only example provided in the article was a card with two tuxedos on it. This indicates to me that for some reason homosexual couples have to be given cards that advertise that they are homosexual? Doesn't really make sense to me. I have seen a handful of cards that have a bride and groom pictured on the cover, but I never get those, I usually get ones that have a nice scenery or a picture of a gazebo or crap like that, they are plentiful. Also the wording in these cards generally doesn't say , "I am so happy for you two falling in love, being a man and a woman and all"

I can see where maybe some kitschy cards would be cool for gay people, like comical ones, but I just don't get it for the marriage aspect. In any event, I guess this can be considered a small victory in their community and that's cool.
