As the Deer(in-the-headlights)Leader pResident Chimperor falls in the polls, and especially among The (rightwingnutcase) Base, how can Gay-bashing be made as a "compassionate" argument? How about arguing in favor of banning gay marriage by saying each child has a right to a mother and a father? It's a stretch, but they're just trying to appeal to the least intelligent 20% of the electorate here. Never mind that it implies that single parents should have their children taken away from them, and that orphans would rather remain in institutions than go to a loving family. I probably couldn't say anything further much better than Bob Geiger did at his blog, quoting the ad:
"It is a painful but very real truth. Homosexual marriages intentionally create motherless families or fatherless families," reads the newspaper ad. "But a compassionate society would not deliberately deny a child a mother or father."

Orwellian doublespeak is the way of both the Chimperor and his base of Jesusistan wingnut supporters.
Take anything they say, flip it on its head, and you will see the truth.
