Romans 1:22

"Obama praised Hollywood’s ability to depict the diversity of the United States all over the world: “If they’re watching an old movie — Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, or Will and Grace and Modern Family — they’ve had a front-row seat to our march towards progress. Even if their own nations haven’t made that progress yet.”" BuzzFeedNews


Uhmm...I didn't pay much attention to Will & Grace back in the day, & I've never seen Moden Family. But isn't Will & Grace about a gay character & wasn't Modern Family in the news recently for having a gay wedding in prime time TV?
Obama calls this "Progress"? This is what he wants other nations to mimic about America?
From Wikipedia about Modern Family...
