SSDD: Anti-Gay Marriage Ads Air In Iowa
Last week the Iowa Supreme Court ruled on same sex marriage, but the debate is far from over as a new television ad is calling on central Iowans to fight the ruling. The commercial, called "Gathering Storm," hit the airwaves this week in Iowa. It is part of a campaign by the National Organization for Marriage.

The National Organization for Marriage says the ads are entirely funded through donations. The consequences of gay marriage are the storm the commercials to which the commercials refer.

The organization claims the stories in their ads are real, but the fine print shows the people telling them, are not. The actors' auditions have been linked onto YouTube.

"Any of the instances brought up in the ad are real. They are really happening and that's because when you redefine marriage, you redefine it for everyone," said Brian Brown, executive director of the organization.

Gawd...what small minded, evil, fucking assholes. Why do they think they have the "right" to define marriage for anyone but themselves???

GMAB.....:puke:
