Countdown to tomorrow: 'Embattled' GOP congressman plays fag card

Nothing scares 'em in the heartland like using the words "Democrat" and "homosexual" in the same sentence:

An embattled Indiana congressman has launched a new campaign ad that warns a vote for his Democratic opponent could trigger a shift in House leadership and advance a "homosexual agenda."

In the one-minute radio ad paid for by Friends of Rep. John Hostettler, an announcer impersonating Clint Eastwood's "Dirty Harry" character says a vote for challenger Brad Ellsworth would be a vote for California Democrat Nancy Pelosi as House speaker.

"Pelosi will then put in motion her radical plan to advance the homosexual agenda, led by Barney Frank, reprimanded by the House after paying for sex with a man who ran a gay brothel out of Congressman Frank's home," the narrator says.

That's from an AP story. Try reading that last sentence out loud. Quite a mouthful, isn't it?

It's a good day when even bigoted congressmen from Indiana are running scared.
