Rick Perry wore same jacket in anti-gay ad that Heath Ledger wore in Brokeback Mountain
Daily Mail ^ | 12.9.11 | LEON WATSON

He was only trying to make a folksy appeal to conservative Christians in Iowa.

And what he had to say was unlikely to cause much controversy with the evangelicals who dominate the Republican Party's caucuses there.

But when Presidential hopeful Rick Perry donned a brown jacket and spoke to the camera for his latest campaign ad he didn't expect to be so widely mocked.

Stupidest thread of the day.

I agree. Of course, you could go over to the Herman Cain on “Hannity” – 12/8/11 thread. It's just a big written shouting match over there. The site is having a bad day today (or a good one, depending on your perspective).

What’s even more tragic, he evidently wears the same socks as faggots Rock Hudson and Liberace!

Well, they both have zippers, and the color is similar.

Of course, no self-respecting gay dude would mistake those two jackets for the “same”.

What a silly article....much ado about nothing.

These jackets are very popular and I’ve seen them in many catalogs & stores. Real cowboys wear them all the time.

This Brit rag is just trying to create controversary.....and the Ad wasn’t anti-gay.

It merely pointed out that it’s now OK for gays to serve openly in our military but Christian children can’t pray in our schools and celebrate the real meaning of Christmas!

Christmas is a celebration of Christ’s Birth not just a ‘holiday’. There are many ‘holidays’ during the year but only one Christmas.........has ‘Christ’ in it.

“What a silly article....much ado about nothing.”

And that’s why it was posted in Chat.

Good god you are as pathetic as the Paultards and 0bama zombies.

More straight men wear Carhartt than gay men. Carhartt until recently was still made in the US.

This site has really sunk to the bottom of the barrel. I’m beginning to think there is more rational and intelligent discussion at the DUmp than there is here.

A jacket once considered a man’s jacket can now symbolize homosexuality. Gestures, clothes, activities, etc… all that once could be considered normal for men or women can be perverted into standing for homosexuality.

Ditto!

Just look at how the word "gay," once meaning happy in a lighthearted way, has been perverted. The word "pride" is undergoing the same metamorphosis--just google "LA pride," "San Diego pride," etc. and see what comes up--believe me, it will not be the Chamber of Commerce site.

One may not be able to hold prayer meetings and the like, but there is nothing stopping anyone from praying.

So, ...obama is a faggot, a genuine, effeminate, bathhouse slut, and someone is worried about Perry’s jacket. It’s stupid.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So. You have a problem with “this site” mocking and ridiculing a lame attempt to smear Gov. Perry? You’ve been here 10 years. Tell us. Has there ever been a time when FR did not laugh at queers?

I’d post the link to the DUmp where you can find that “rational and intelligent discussion” you long for. But I figure you have it bookmarked.

Yeah, it's a Carhart barn coat, big deal. This is kind of like when Anderson Cooper came up with his little quip about "teabaggers", invoking a homosexual "inside joke" that most normal people didn't get, but homos like Keith Olberman jumped all over to show that they were hip to the joke.

The only people who will pay any attention to this are other homos who actually saw "Brokeback Mountain", which probably includes the author.

Well Perry is a real cowboy and *gasp* has worn chaps too. I can just imagine the wagging of tongues over this pic.

I LOVE a man that looks like he was born in chaps. LOVE THEM. Add spurs and I am YOURS. I have only known one man like that.
