Hoping to scare voters away from former Governor Ronnie Musgrove, Mississippi Senator Roger Wicker began running this ad tying Musgrove, who wants Wicker’s seat, to all sorts of “liberal” groups, like Friend of Hillary and pro-choice NARAL.
And, of course, to gay rights group Human Rights Campaign, which is represented in the commercial by the Village People. Too bad Musgrove never took money from HRC, a fact of which Wicker obviously doesn’t care…

And yet at their sporting events they will all stand up and proudly sing “YMCA” followed by Queen’s “We Will Rock You.” At least us gays are good for something!

Musgorve didn’t take the contributions, but our DSCC did. Musgorve’s response:
Musgrove Supported Ban On Gay Adoptions: In March 2000, Musgrove supported a ban on adoption by homosexuals or same-sex couples. The ban not only pertained to adoptions in Mississippi, but also ensured that Mississippi would not recognize adoptions by gay individuals or couples from other states if the parents moved to Mississippi. (Clarion Ledger, 3/23/00)
Musgrove Opposes Gay Marriage: Musgrove opposes gay marriage and believes that marriage is between one man and one woman. (Clarion Ledger, 10/3/08; Sun Herald, 10/22/03)

I second Dan: Mississippi. Not Minnesota.

Someone’s Mason-Dixon line has slipped way off the map. Take that Crystal pipe away from the Queerty Editors!
BTW – Friends of Hillary now include Bitter Rednecks from the Primary so the GOP may be backward in the attempt at branding
Of note, some people with HIV-AIDS are still denied basic medical coverage for their Medicines in Mishi-shitty thanks to the Repugnant Party.
Vote Al Franken in Minnesota where we have a chance (and a full head of teeth) or help canvass for Obama in Nevada or Louisiana if in the actual state of MISSISSIPPI!

This is a local race for me (at least in our media market) and let me tell you, there is nothing more obnoxious during an election year than Miss’ippi political advertising.
Even the Democrats are wingnuts, and they spend the entire campaign posing with their family members, all of whom have impossible hair, repeating over and over again how pro-lahfe and pro-gun they are.
CHURCHILL-Y
Queerty, you’ve lost all journalistic credibility(if you ever had one to begin with) IT’S MISSISSIPPI!

Why hasn’t the state error is been fixed by now?

Dudes, it’s MISSISSIPPI.
Isn’t Minnesota where the closet gays suck cock in public bathroom stalls, or, maybe that is Minnesota.
Inform us, Queerty. You the dudes with the knowledge!
