Disgusting Filth from Homophobic Bob Ney - with audio

Welcome TPM Muckraker's. You can listen to a higher quality audio copy of Ney's robo call here - Homophobe Bob Ney Draws Ire.

Bob Ney sends out an email attacking Zack Space in what can only be described as one of the most homophobic gay baiting emails I have ever seen

The ultra-liberal colors of Ohio's 18th District Democrat Congressional candidate Zack Space keep shining through. At the same time as he was campaigning with failed Presidential candidate and avowed Second Amendment opponent John Kerry in Ohio last week, Zack continued his outreach efforts to the national liberal and gay rights establishment by giving a lengthy radio interview on the liberal Air America network with one of the country's leading gay rights advocates, Rachel Maddow. Interestingly, a major financial sponsor of Air America is MoveOn.org , the same liberal organization based in Washington D.C., which Space purports to have no connection with, but which has been funding negative soft-money attacks against Congressman Bob Ney.

Maddow, who lives in New York City with her "partner," questioned Space about a variety of issues popular with the national liberal establishment while acknowledging at one point that she uses a different name when dressed "in drag." But perhaps the most interesting aspect of her interview with Space came at the end with a stunning admission by Space that he doesn't sense "social issues" are still "hot button" issues.

Why is it relevant who a radio host lives with ? What's that got to do with Zack Space, Bob Ney or my dog ? This is just a disgusting email and someone should call him on it. This whole guilt (Where there is nothing to be guilty of) by association is pathetic and sad.

To make matters even worse Bob Ney didn't just email this filth - he also made robocalls - here it is

Audio link here for those that want to pass this around
Bob Ney, corrupt congressman and human filth. Here's hoping that some decent reporters pick this story up and hang him with it. This is the 21st century and this kind of hatred should not be tolerated from a so-called leader.

This is truly pathetic and irrelevant

When is it going to stop working? Isn't it about time? Seriously, can you imagine most Democrats coming up with anything remotely like this? There are some pretty weird organizations we could probably link Bob with just as tightly as he's tried to link Space to the middle-of-the-road, not-particularly-extremist MoveOn.org. Fact is, if explained properly, 75% of the population would agree with most of MoveOn.org's positions, including the one it was founded on (censuring rather than impeaching Clinton and then "moving on", hence the name).

Drag Kings

I think this is the first time the issue of drag kings has entered the political discourse.

The call makes Ney sound insane. Good luck on that one.
