Gay Rights Group Releases Anti-Mehlman Ad

From blogACTIVE

Proud Of Who We Are, an organization that calls upon closeted gay officials to come out, has produced a dead-on satire of RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman’s race-baiting ad against Democrat Harold Ford.
Watch it and read about it.

Watch the ad that is being parodied

Watch the parody:

blogACTIVE:

A blogACTIVE.com response to Ken Mehlman and his race baiting of Harold Ford:

Hey, Ken, two can play your game, pal. By late Tuesday afternoon BlogACTIVE will have produced and posted a response to your ad, which I suspect will get as much play as the original ad you used to interject your own brand of hate into the election.

I have engaged a writer, director, cameraman, actors, actresses, post production team and a publicity team to help push this top-notch video into the mainstream as quickly as possible.

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don’t know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.

Every time the Republicans trot out their anti gay demagogary to garner votes it sickens me. If Mehlman is gay and has helped to orchestrate these mean spirited campaigns he should hide in shame.

Good for you. Let’s get it to the media so they can run with it the way they’re running for the last 2 days with John Kerry’s misstep.

I’d like Mehlman a lot better if he just came out and admitted it. At least then he’d be living honestly. However, I WON’T like Rove any better when the truth about him comes out…
