Where's the beef?

Right-wing advocacy group One Million Moms has a reputation for alerting its members to corporate sponsorship of what it sees as questionable content on television, among other things. Today, however, they've chosen to jump on Kraft's sponsorship of the Gay Games, but it's not clear that they know why - other than simply, "it's gay, it must be bad."

The membership alert they issued today simply encourages members to contact the food manufacturer and tell them to stop sponsoring the games, noting:
"The gay games are supported and endorsed by dozens of homosexual activist groups and organizations, including homosexual magazines and television outlets."
Most of their alerts, while no less anti-gay, are usually better defined. Why is Kraft's sponsorship of an event that is attended by gays on private property, not televised on public airwaves or even paid attention to by national media is unclear.

As much as they argue the contrary, this isn't pro-family, it's simply anti-gay for anti-gay's sake.
