An instant classic via the Federalist and a concise demonstration of what the Denver Post had in mind when it endorsed Gardner a few weeks ago, dismissing Mark “Uterus” Udall’s incessant war-on-women messaging in Colorado as an “obnoxious one-issue campaign [and] an insult to those he seeks to convince.” Here’s NARAL backing Udall up with the stupidest ad of the campaign, in which a guy who — famously — backs making birth control available over the counter somehow becomes the grim reaper of prophylactics, singlehandedly banning the pill and triggering a run on condoms coast to coast. I’m surprised that NARAL thinks he’d leave condoms alone; if the GOP’s goal, as more excitable feminists assure themselves, is to keep women pregnant and out of the work force, it makes no sense to leave condoms on the shelves after the pill has disappeared. Maybe NARAL figured that a simple double-standard critique was more effective. Sure, Cory will allow birth control for men, but not for women. Apart from the freely available OTC birth control for women that he supports, I mean.

NARAL Ad: Cory Gardner Is Totally Going To Ban Condoms - YouTube

The best part of the ad is the way the guy has to explain everything to his ignorant girlfriend and even calls her "Sweet Pea."

Way to reinforce gender stereotypes NARAL! Unbelievably terrible ad.

This thread title is a lie. The add doesn't say Cory Gardner wants to ban condoms. It says he wants to ban the other forms of birth control leaving condoms as the primary option.

That's the best you got? LOL, this is shaping up to be a wonderful election cycle. The buffoonery from the left doesn't stop!

I was simply pointing out that you're lying. I don't like liars.

As to the add, I think it's stupid and condescending.

I'm not lying - that title is the title on the youtube video. Take it up with them. Your personal attacks violate the TOS so you might wanna scale it back a bit champ.

Are you not responsible for the words you say - the words you type and then publish? And how is telling the objective truth a personal attack?

The only campaign being run worse than Udall in CO is Davis in TX. Cory Gardner has a +3.3 point average lead over Udall across all current polls. Gardner is more likeable, is running a better campaign, and isn't insulting the entire electorate with a single issue, meme campaign like Mark "Uterus" Udall. In fact, Udall is almost single handed killing any effectiveness the Democrats' war on women strategy had left, he's overplayed it so badly in CO.

No, I'm not responsible for how youtube titles its videos. And yes, you calling me a liar for posting the thread is certainly a personal attack.

Got it?

No, I don't got it. You're wrong on both counts.

I have to endure dozens of Udall adds every day. He's certainly not running a single issue campaign, and the add that's the subject of this thread is not from the Udall campaign.
