Regular readers of this blog will note that I've dropped the hammer on Westboro Baptist Church, out of Topeka, Kansas, which is a family-run operation that trades on hate instead of the Biblical doctrines.
But while the Phelps family, which has used Westboro Baptist as a bully pulpit, has all but disappeared, another haterizing "Christian" has earned a set of Weasel ears.
Rev. Donald Wildmon's American Family Association, founded and based in Tupelo, Mississippi, otherwise known as the birthplace of entertainment legend Elvis Presley, spun off something called One Million Moms a few years back. However, there's been plenty of blowback against One Million Moms, and with one good reason.
It's really just one mom, and a very angry one, at that.
Monica Cole isn't just the "spokeswoman" for One Million Moms. She IS One Million Moms. One woman with a haterizing agenda pretending that she has people backing her crusade. She has over 4,000 Twitter followers, and likely none of them realize this is a one person operation.
In recent years, Cole has targeted JC Penney (for employing Ellen DeGeneres as a commercial endorser), and shows like Glee and Lucifer.
So why does she lie? She wants attention, but she should be repenting for her continual lying. Intentional misrepresentation, bullying businesses, such as the Hallmark Channel, to push her agenda, add up to Cole being a con artist.
Cole's latest target is Burger King and their Impossible Whopper ads, promoting the plant based burger, which debuted in August. All because one consumer said "damn". Scope this commerical, and you'll see what I mean:
As with other media nannies like the Parents Television Council, Cole is railing because the language is being used when, presumably, "impressionable" children are watching. Sorry, but that ship sailed a long time ago. Today's kids are cursing like sailors at early ages, and their parents let them. That's today's society.
I'd like to see Cole do the impossible. Like appearing on To Tell The Truth. Until then, she is this week's Weasel. And well deserved.
I'm paraphrasing a comment my wife made; to wit, she needs the attention and company of a member of the opposite sex.
ReplyDeleteI think the belief is that Monica is or was married, but yeah, she does need to get a life.
ReplyDeleteI still think language and situations should be more carefully scrutinized before airing on TV. Sure, standards have relaxed a great deal in recent years (to our detriment) but I don't think she's entirey wrong (more parents should be involved in raising their kids and corporations should take more responsibility with products and marketing).
ReplyDeleteBTW - Do NOT eat anything from Impossible Foods! That stuff is lab created poison! The only thing that makes it taste palatable are the toppings!
If you want an idea about them, I recommend this channel:

Haven't tried the Impossible Whopper, which is aimed at vegans, and meant to put a dent in sales on frozen veggie burgers. Not about to start. Cole's main problem is that she is misrepresenting herself as the leader of a conservative media nanny group, when she is in truth its sole member.....
ReplyDeleteKids hear worse language at school or when seeing footage of one of President Adolf Twitler's hate rally's.
ReplyDeleteTo conservatives: as long as you continue to support Donald Trump, you can spare us the hypocritical BS.
That support is about to be tested and scrutinized over the next few days.
