Poli Sigh - Ellen DeGeneres Walks into a JC Penney

Via Consumerist

The national hate group, American Family Association, had it's splinter cell, One Million Moms, start campaigning against JC Penney's choice of Ellen DeGeneres as a spokesperson in a series of changes the company has been making to it's image.  The reason it's a bad choice?  They say too many of their customers are conservative families (translated: prejudiced against any non-hetero sexual orientation) and they will lose sales.

I'll be honest with everyone here: I don't choose where to shop based on spokesperson's.  Never have.  Never will.  BUT NOW!  Now that I know shopping at JCP would be a blow against the AFA?  I'm gonna go out of my way to spend more of my money there.  Nice job, ignoramuses.
