Maggie’s Rotten Potatoe: Anti-gay marriage ad teaches typos to New York children

”Say no to same same sex marraige.”

Two typos found in the latest TV commercial from Maggie Gallagher‘s National Organization for Marriage. She is basically pushing the message that schools will force gay marriage on children: ”Massachusetts schools teach 2nd Graders that boys can marry other boys.” But, as GoodAsYou.org points out, perhaps it is Gallagher and her staff who should have paid more attention in the classroom. Even after realizing their error on the spelling of “marriage,” the second error remained on a re-posted version. (GoodAsYou)
