The $1.5 million hate-mongering TV ad produced and paid for by Maggie Gallagher‘s hate-mongering National Organization for Marriage, as you saw here, is a slick piece of, well, let’s say sausage. Aside from the lies it tells, lies well-refuted by the Human Rights Campaign, it is, as one reader wrote, well, I’ll let him tell you:

“If the KKK had had a slick PR firm on their side, their anti-miscegenation ads would’ve looked a lot like this anti-gay marriage ad. Just substitute ‘interracial marriage’ for ‘gay marriage’. They’re just bigots all dressed up lookin’ for an audience.”

Another friend on Twitter told me,
