Did you know that children's favorite SpongeBob Squarepants is a
threat to America?
According to Focus on the Family founder James C. Dobson, the yellow
sponge has been enlisted in a "pro-homosexual video," along with Jimmy
Neutron and Barney the Dinosaur, which promotes - horror of horrors -
a "tolerance pledge" for elementary schoolchildren.
This, according to Dobson, includes tolerance for differences of
"sexual identity."
Unfortunately Mr. Dobson's homophobia appears to have gotten the
better of him, because the video doesn't actually contain anything
referring to sexual identity at all.
Despite this, a spokesman stood by Dobson's claim, saying, "We see the
video as an insidious means by which the organization is manipulating
and potentially brainwashing kids. It is a classic bait and switch."
Ah, I see... although there's nothing about sexual identity in the
video we can't even teach kids about tolerance in general, because
they might inadvertently become too tolerant.
And we certainly don't want them growing up toleratin' those
evil-doin' queers.
Does anyone know what temperature sponges burn at?
