The Religion of Peace^(tm) strikes again!

This just in: a known group of liars gets caught lying!

Conservatives lied to make their agenda seem more popular than it really is? You're sure? Wow, I can't believe it - think I might need a few minutes to take all this new information in.

Muslims make up about 22% of the human population.

If the majority of them were supportive of terrorism we'd be farking dead already.

Lying little shiats.

I never even heard of the show before yesterday.

Still wont watch it, but I wonder how many people are now curious about the 'controversy' and will be tuning in.

Maybe it's one of those arguments:

"Blah blah blah"

"I agree!"

"Great, and furthermore..."

"No no, you made you point, I said 'I agree', and now you can leave."

I made the mistake of going to the Lowe's facebook page and seeing comments like:

I heard about what you did with the commercial on a radio program yesterday, and I would like to commend you. If I ever have a budget and need for home improvement supplies, I will take my business to you. THANK YOU. -a US Marine wife

I'll bet that Lowe's has record Christmas Holiday sales!!!! Go Lowes!!!!

I just want to tell you that I have shopped at your story many times and more of my business will be going to you. Not just because of your advertising decision but because you have not backed down or caved in to your detractors. There are a great number of people that will not comment on your stand with words but silently with actions, by purchasing from you. Keep up the good work and thanks for stand for something , not falling for anything.

It's funny that Home Depot had a commercial accidentally air on the show - they came out and said- we don't advertise on shows like that. No one had a problem with it. This all sound like CAIR is trying to drum up viewership for a failing show. (For some stupid reason CAIR is sinister to Conservatives)

Is this not America??? Lowe's has every right to pull their ad. If some religious group that happens to have a TV show doesn't like it then my suggestion is for them not to shop at Lowe's and move to a Muslim country.

I will drive the extra miles now JUST to shop at Lowes, about time somebody stands up to the pissing and moaning minority that thinks the rest of the country is suppossed to kiss their butt.

And my favorite:

Way to go Lowes...Im sick of "so called" diversity how bout some PATRIOTISM....You got my business

Make me wish we had forced sterilizations.

In before some folks insinuate that Muslim Americans are not people and don't deserve the same Constitutional protections as everyone else.

Let me copy and paste from the Lowe's facebook page and save everyone the effort.

Why should this new show on TLC feature the extreme side of Islam?

Should fox news feature all the job creation done by republicans that doesn't involve another male republican and a bathroom stall?

GhostFish: Muslims make up about 22% of the human population.

One more good facebook comment:

Lowes will be so much cleaner now.. we love lowes!

Lowe's, not bigoted but #1 with bigots!

But they did back down to their detractors and caved to the FFA. Gahhh! The stupid, it burns so hot!!!!!

So how about that "Thou shalt not bear false witness." in the Commandments.

FACT CHECK: Most Companies Not Caving To Intolerance, Will Continue To Advertise On 'All-American Muslim'

I like how they put their political opinion in the headline of a piece that's ostensibly fact-checking. Apparently, nobody taught them the distinction between journalism and op-ed writing. The rest of the article is no better.

Lowe's Facebook page makes me so proud to be an American! And a human being!

How many of the douchetards making vile comments are Christians?

Gotfire: [i39.tinypic.com image 481x67]

You know who else supports marriage between a man and a woman? Radical Islam!

It's funny how the fundamentalists of each of the major religions (Christians, Muslims, Jews, etc.) hate each other so much that they overlook the fact that they actually agree with each other on most of their bigoted viewpoints and could probably accomplish their goals a lot faster if they could muster the ability to work together to achieve them.

Actually no, it's very good that they haven't figured that out because if they ever did, the world would be screwed.

olddeegee: I'm still gonna boycott Bank of America, if you don't mind.

After what those farkers did to my mother? I don't mind at all.

Eh, they call it like it is. Those who have issue with the show are primarily motivated by intolerance. It's nearly impossible to refute that, call it what it is.

Gilligann: The Daily Show last night was very good.

They showed an interview with this guy who basically said that they were against the show because it tried to educate people against the stereotypical "all muslims are terrorists" line. They didn't think the show should be allowed to challenge that belief.

For the love of holy, please tell me this is a joke.

His argument is: 'Don't show my hate is wrong.'

And this is why we have f*cked politicians in government. The crazies vote for the crazies.

Masso: So how about that "Thou shalt not bear false witness." in the Commandments.

These people wipe their asses with the Constitution. Why shouldn't they do the same with the Bible?

Aarontology: Lol they bore false witness.

There's really only one reason I would love all the religion stuff to be real.

I REALLY want to see these bigoted farks get to the gates of a heaven, only to be turned away for being such ugly people on Earth.

It's OK to bear false witness since Muslims aren't real people anyway.

I'd rather they not be sent to the same part of Hell that I'm going to be in. Is there an HOA in Hell that I could talk to about this?

What has gotten lost in all this is that that show looks really lame.

It's a little known fact that all HOAs are franchises of Hell.

Philip Francis Queeg: But they did back down to their detractors and caved to the FFA. Gahhh! The stupid, it burns so hot!!!!!

You know what's real upsetting. The majority of the folks who supported Lowe's decision to do that say the exact same thing. My head hurts from banging it on the desk too much because of all the stupidity on that Facebook page.

The Dog Ate My Homework: What has gotten lost in all this is that that show looks really lame.

True. It really does prove that average and ordinary don't make for good TV.

It was a joke.

Now that I've told you that, I must also tell you I just lied. It was not a joke. That is essentially what the FFA representative said.

"The show reveals that my bigoted hatred is wrong and therefore it is a terrible show"

I don't know how this works. 50% of the women working at my local Lowe's are wearing a hijab.

The Dog Ate My Homework: What has gotten lost in all this is that that show looks really lame.

Yeah, it's funny how some lame ass reality show about Muslims not being demons has caused such an uproar.

Won't be watching it, but now I just associate Lowe's with bigoted assholes and probably will avoid shopping there.

The Dog Ate My Homework: What has gotten lost in all this is that that show looks really lame.

About as lame as every other reality show.

Ed Finnerty: That's okay. Removing tax-exempt status from all churches will more than make up for it.

You know, you bring up a really good point. Is the FFA a registered charity...501 (c) 3 or otherwise? Can a racist organization be a tax-free entity? Could the Klan get an exemption?

Anyone with more than a GED in Law want to chime in?

Wait, what part of that was an opinion?

Who cares? ThinkProgress is a blog, not a news organization.

Like FOX "News"
