We love it when people use pesky facts to break down the bullshit arguments presented in anti-marriage equality ads, and no one's doing it better than Matt Baume over at the American Foundation for Equal Rights (AFER).

Take a look as he calmly (and brilliantly) shreds two misleading ads opposing marriage equality in Maine after the jump!

It's not exactly news that many religious leaders aren't thrilled about the prospect of same-sex marriage.

It is, however, a little surprising to hear a Catholic leader in the United States go so far as to say that that Catholic individuals that support same-sex marriage should "refrain from receiving Holy Communion."

Basically, you don't have to participate in a same-sex marriage to be ostracized. If you happen to simply not be a bigot, then you should have to stop participating in one of the key traditions of your religious faith.

We love political ads that are so poorly done that they can't possibly be real...except for they are real and may actually make an impact with their misleading scare tactics.

Here's a great example from the pro-Romney super-PAC, Campaign For American Values. 

The ad warns viewers that "Obama's trying to force gay marriage on this country.” You may not be able to handle all of the angst.

Watch after the jump.

What do you think about this recently pulled ad opposing homophobic Senator Jim DeMint (R-SC)?

The question it seemingly intends to raise is: "Why is Senator DeMint's anti-gay sentiment acceptable?"

He's advocating that gay individuals should not be allowed to be teachers.

The ad raises this question by drawing a parallel between anti-gay sentiment and rhetoric versus anti-Semitic sentiment and rhetoric.

Watch after the jump.

As the Republican nominee-hopefuls fight for media coverage in the final week leading up to the Iowa caucus, we're here to give da Newt some attention 'cause, well, he hates us and we love making fun of him. And this time around, we're confused. Here he is in his latest politcal ad with something about freedom or victory or death, and, well, Newt abuses history for his political cause. If you can handle the blowhard, homophobe, philanderer's voice for three minutes-plus, check out his latest post to his offical YouTube page today and let us know what the hell he's talking about. Please.
