Kid Rock (we know, we kinda forgot he existed too!) has been a pretty ardent supporter of Mitt Romney during the campaign season (and has performed in support of him at campaign stops across the country), but he seems to veer a little left of the Republican Presidential candidate when it comes to social issues.

See what he has to say about the gays, among other things, after the jump.

It didn’t take long for the Komen Foundation to realize they made a bad decision when they cut off funding for Planned Parenthood. Less than a week later the decision was reversed following a nationwide uproar that left the foundation thinking, “WTF did we do?” now we see who's taking the fall...

Updated Thursday at 4 p.m. (PST):

What goes up must come down—and the controversial anti-abortion spot in NYC is set to come down. The Rev. Al Sharpton has confirmed that the company which owns the advertising space has said they will pull the ad.

"The billboard was offensive, especially during Black History Month, and I had intended to hold a press conference Friday in front of the billboard to protest the message of racial profiling and against a woman"s right to choose," Sharpton said.

The ad was slated to be up for three weeks. 

 

 

In the wake of last week's very vocal Congress talks on Planned Parenthood (and a further abortion debate), this billboard has appeared in NYC...

Listen up, Iowan Instincters! This is what your courageous and ground-breaking openly gay State Senator Matt McCoy (one of Instinct’s 2009 Leading Men) is facing in the upcoming elections: a horrendously bigoted beyond religious right fellow by the name of David Leach (an anti-abortionist connected to the recent assasination of Dr. George Tiller).

In a recent email exchange, Leach basically said that AIDS is God’s punishment for homosezzuals.

Here’s the vile transcript:

"Everyone knows sodomites suffer [HIV/AIDS] far more than the rest of the population, and that sodomy's practices, which are so embarrassingly unsanitary that you dare not detail them in one of your articles, would inevitably create such a disease if it did not already...

Updated Wednesday, February 3

The plot regarding the controversial anti-abortion ad scheduled to run during the Superbowl on Sunday thickens as evidence that CBS worked closely with Focus on the Family before the commercial emerges.

The Daily Beast reports:

"There were discussions about the specific wording of the spot," said Gary Schneeberger, spokesperson for Focus on the Family. "And we came to a compromise. To an agreement." Schneeberger declined to comment on exactly how CBS changed the ad's message.

"We've worked with [CBS] almost since the beginning," Schneeberger added. "Our senior vice presidents talked to CBS executives throughout the process. It was a very cordial, very professional, fruitful relationship."

CBS declined...

Update:

This fishy plot thickens. CBS has now officially rejected the ManCrunch.com ad, as questions still float around about whether or not the company even intended for the ad to run, or whether it just wanted free publicity.

"After reviewing the ad—which is entirely commercial in nature—our Standards and Practices department decided not to accept this particular spot," said CBS in a statement. "As always, we are open to working with the client on alternative submissions."

"We're 100% serious," said the site's spokesperson, Elissa Buchter. "We have the money to pay for it. If the ad showed a man and woman kissing it would have been accepted. You see ads for erectile dysfunction morning, noon and night. It's discriminatory that they...
