Oof. The Family Research Council is pulling no punches as it attempts to link President Obama to the ever outspoken Dan Savage.
Their basic "message"?? It Gets Better Project founder Dan Savage is an anti-Christian bully and Obama likes him so don't vote for him. (Because clearly the two men are thick as thieves and Savage's rhetorical choices are far more harmful than any of the hate rhetoric the FRC spews on a daily basis.)
Watch their desperate ad after the jump.

Maybe we're feeling nostalgic, but we couldn't help but get all tingly when this latest "It Gets Better" video showed up in our inbox.
It also could be that Gale Harold is still just as smokin' hot as he was when he played our boyfriend, Brian Kinney on Showtime's Queer As Folk.
Then there's the fact that he's talking and saying all sorts of lovely things about the gay community, and...yep, tingly.
Watch Gale's "It Gets Better" video after the jump!

The latest entry into the It Gets Better Project club comes on the heels of the video by Mormon LGBT students at Brigham Young University.
This new video, which debuted at today’s Circling The Wagons Conference (a national conference for gay Mormons) in Washington D.C., features Mormon parents, friends, and family members of those that have come out as LGBT.
It's pretty powerful.
