Hmm.  There's no political correctness here:  Disney is going the
patriotic American route, which means heteros and Christians.

In every episode I ever saw -- granted, that ended a year ago -- there
was some form of Christian recognition.  (Or as homophobes would phrase
it, they flaunted their chosen lifestyle preference in everybody's
faces.)  Either they'd pan over crucifixes on a wall, or introduce
their friends from church, or all join together in prayer.  Then, at
the end, they'd all thank the white man's God for giving them this
wonderful gift.  (Sponsored, of course, by Sears.)
