1. Some snips from your article
But it's the Log Cabin ad that's sure to draw the most attention, if only because it's the first time the 27-year-old group has run a TV commercial, and it's the most public criticism it's ever levied at a Republican president.

Reflecting the difficult position Log Cabin is in, the ad strategically criticizes Bush without ever mentioning his name or the specific disagreement at hand. Indeed, one could watch the entire ad and assume (wrongly) that Log Cabin and the Bush administration walk hand in hand on the issue of gay marriage.

The ad features grainy black-and-white footage of Dick Cheney talking encouragingly about gay relations during an October 2000 vice presidential debate in Kentucky.

"The fact of the matter is we live in a free society, and freedom means freedom for everybody," said Cheney, whose daughter Mary is openly gay and works on his campaign.


oopsie doodle. Smirky's policies of hatred and division not working out too well for him.
