Get out there and use your First Amendment rights, about a party that has done everything to earn the contempt and disgust of LGBT people. Light ONLY comes from heat.

Clearly if they had their way we'd all be playing happy families with 2 point whatever kids, an SUV and a 'minnesota-nice' hoem in the burbs. I'm sorry, but where I come from niceness isn't a given. It's based on mutual respect, something which McCain and company clearly weren't tought in their formative years. This advertising compaign wreaks of an attempt to disuade protests by those who would otherwise be silent and sidelined in a Republican run US. I wonder if it would be to much to ask any african americans to paint their faces white for the visit. That would be so much more palatable.
