One Million Moms Targets ABC’s “Mistresses”

Mistresses_ABC_2013 
One Million Moms loves, just loves, to pretend that they can actually get 
 something pulled off the air so that the schmucks who buy their propaganda
 will donate lots of money to them so that they can continue to live a nice cushy
 life away from any kind of actual heavy lifting or actual work. OMM’s latest 
kvetch is ABC’s “Mistresses”. Of course, they’ve already griped about “The 
Fosters”, but that was expected.
They can’t stand the idea of a lesbian drama that is a lot more on real life and a lot
 less on sex. OMM’s latest, though, goes after a show that they liken to a revamped 
“Desperate Housewives.” Apparently the plot revolves around four friends and the 
web of lives they weave around themselves while looking for love.  The show is based 
off of a British TV show of the same name.  I have no doubt that OMM would have
 been furious about “Coupling”. Yep, it’s a classic soap opera. Not something I’m 
interested in, but expect that people will watch it. Still OMM put out this missive:
The tagline for the program is: “Attraction. Passion. Deception. I can’t help it.”
 Advertisements mention “Endless possibilities,” “Thirteen weeks of seduction” and 
“Who have you been doing?” One character even gets involved with another woman. 
A show full of adultery, cheating and lies is the last influence our society needs. Even 
though the program airs a little later in the evening, it is not late enough since the 
bedroom scenes are completely soft p*rn. (An asterisk is used to ensure our emails

One Million Moms will be as persistent as we were with ABC’s “Good Christian 
Belles” in asking sponsors to pull their financial support. We had proof this works when
 “GCB” was canceled after only one season. Hollywood is continuing to push casual
 s*x as acceptable when Scripture states clearly it is a sin. As Christians, the Bible also 
says that we must speak up against sin. If we remain silent, we are accepting it and are 
guilty of sin also. One Million Moms is determined to clean up broadcast airwaves.

Oy vey, they can’t even say the word ‘sex’. As for their “proof” regarding “GCB”, the 
ratings were pretty abysmal on that show, and that is why it got the kibosh. “The New 
Normal” had the same problem. The fact that they have continuously claimed victory 
over specific shows despite the show not doing well in the ratings just shows how desperate
 they are for money…sorry…attention…sorry again…moral viewing options.  Of course,
 they could just not watch the show, and maybe just stop trying to immorally force every
one to fall lock step behind them.  Then again, “Mistresses” is just the kind of show
 that they probably watch religiously while jotting down notes about how they hate
 the show vehemently.
