O Noes!

Not teh gay! Everyone knows it's catching!

Imagine the outrage if Dems ran an ad against Wicker -- or any other GOP senator -- tying him to Larry Craig because, after all, Craig surely supports his reelection. Perhaps with scary black and white footage of airport bathrooms.

OT did anyone see the NYT poll that just came out? 53 to 39 probable voters. Holy crap! Has McCain been under 40 in any poll to this point?

Lewis Black, red white and screwed, his segment on gay marriage.
[referring to Rick Santorum calling gays a "threat to the american family"] It's prejudice, and it's ignorance, on a level that is staggering at this point in time. But, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe there's a group of gay bandidos. They travel from village to dell. And as night falls, they travel to that cul-de-sac, where only one house stands. And in the window, you see a family, just setting down to their evening meal. And these queers... these queers... don their black hoods, and matching pumps, very tasteful. Sneak up to the house ever so slightly, open the door, and start... FUCKING EACH OTHER IN THE ASS! AND ANOTHER AMERICAN FAMILY... IS DESTROYED!

I heard that if you vote for a democrat than the gaywads will get their gay all over you! It's a fact!

It's funny, but I'm re-reading Gore Vidal's essays on sexuality right now and it's amazing how he predicts, from the mid-sixties up until the late 70s, that the right will transform itself in to the "family values" party and begin to run on those issues alone. Guess that isn't working as well this cycle.

Anyone remember Anita Bryant?

Does anyone remember Anita Bjork? She was one hot babe!

On second look, this ad is actually much much funnier than I first thought it to be. Especially the part where a grown man, a senator no less, actually says "I'm Roger Wicker, and I approved this ad."

There's no way anyone could have made that statement if they had actually seen it!

lol

It's so amazing that they choose to use the word "rights" when talking about LGBT rights. Everything I know about word association makes me think this would be the last word that conservatives would want to use...

Pretend you're conducting two separate surveys:
1. One askes, "Should teenagers be allowed to skateboard on neighborhood sidewalks on Sundays?"
2. And the other asks, "Should teenagers have the RIGHT to skateboard on neighborhood sidewalks on Sundays?"
People are going to answer "yes" to the latter question, far more than they do the former.

It occurs to me while I'm writing this that "gay rights" might just be the most succinct way of saying what they wanted to (brevity is key to a 30 second ad). But then again, "gay lobby" and "gay activists" are just as short...

Aren't there more gay Republican Senators than gay Democrat Senators?

Maybe I misunderstood, but wouldn't a cow naturally be opposed to a beef processing plant?

I don't know what the hell the DSCC is waiting for. I live in Northern Miss. and I've seen three negative Musgrove adds in the last 15 minutes.

Forget the homos, what's the deal with the cow?

The GOP is the last haven for bigots, racists and the ignorant. A No Evolution Zone- just keeping it real dumb. The world is flat and you can't make me believe elsewise.

The add is just poorly made. It gets lost in it's hatred for liberal groups and the message gets muddled. It's confusing and the editing doesn't help at all. They try to help by telling you who the guy at the desk is supposed to be with a quick label at the beginning, but by the time it's done, you feel like you're in a MadTV sketch that they didn't know how to end.

Why are Republicans obsessed with Gays?
It doesn't even work for them politically anymore. But, they continue to reer their ugly heads on this issue. DOPE!

People, people, people!! Remember that the conservative right is not against gays. They're only against gays who come out of the closet. If you're in the closet and denying your sexuality you're fine unless you get caught in an airport men's room or get dimed on by the young congressional pages you were lusting after. Better to be Mark Foley or Larry Craig, fine upstanding, good Christian men who uphold good moral values and condemn immoral sinners like Bill Clinton than to be Barney Frank an unrepentant out homosexual, who doesn't lie or hide about his sexuality but goes about his life dealing with more substantive issues. Ya know, the hardest thing about being a gay man is deciding whether to wear the cowboy or construction worker outfit to the office. Well, that and seeing the self-loathing that the conservative, fundamentalists have encouraged on the part of decent people who happen to have been born with the penchant to send their valentine's card to someone with the same plumbing.

Oh, by the way, do you think the British of mid 18th century would have labeled our colonial forefathers terrorists??
