Another letter from the American Family Association. Annotated with snarky goodness (in brackets and italics).
Help The Passion of the Christ win the best movie of the year award!Do you get the impression that the AFA thinks its members are a little... how you say... simple? If you click, you have to fill out your name and address and phone number and email address before they'll give you the super-secret link to the CBS People's Choice voting site. And you don't want to do that, because that's how I ended up on their list. (Though I think in the end, they'll regret it more than i will!) So, I'm NOT encouraging you to go to http://www.pcavote.com and vote for movies other than The Passion of the Christ (I hear The Bourne Supremacy was pretty good). Really, I'm not. I'm also not encouraging you to tell everyone you know to go to the site and do the same thing. What you do with this information is totally up to you.
Vote today and then forward this on to your family and friends so they can vote! Voting ends Dec. 13.
Dear Katherine,
Please help The Passion Of The Christ win the best movie of the year in CBS’s People’s Choice Awards! Cast your vote and then forward this to your friends and family and ask them to vote for The Passion Of The Christ. [and I shouldn't forget my coworkers at the Jewish organization where I work!]
PLEASE SAVE THIS EMAIL. AFTER YOU CAST YOUR BALLOT, PLEASE COME BACK TO THIS EMAIL AND FORWARD IT. BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE CBS WEBSITE IS SET UP [what? You mean it's not controlled by the American Family Association? Godless heathens!], IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FORWARD THIS INFORMATION FROM THE VOTING SITE. AFTER CASTING YOUR VOTE, IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO RETURN TO THIS EMAIL IN ORDER TO FORWARD IT TO YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS. [thanks for the highly technical explanation. In all caps, yet.]
We are asking you to register so that we can keep an accurate tally of the number of votes AFA Online produces for the movie. As you know, Mel Gibson is not the favorite person in Hollywood because of his making this movie.
PLEASE, AFTER YOU HAVE VOTED, COME BACK TO THIS EMAIL AND FORWARD IT TO ALL YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS. WE NEED AS MANY PEOPLE TO VOTE AS POSSIBLE. THIS MOVIE DESERVES TO BE THE MOVIE (DRAMA CATEGORY) OF THE YEAR! WITH YOUR HELP IT WILL BE! [What did you want me to do again after I vote? Like, I forgot already. And how do I do it? What?]
Help us make sure The Passion Of The Christ gets more votes than any other movie in history! [In HISTORY?] Voting ends December 13. Please take action now.

Sincerely,
Don
Donald E. Wildmon, Founder and Chairman
