Washington, D.C. -
Starting Monday, a gay conservative group will launch a new ad campaign attacking Democratic leaders, including Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA).
The ads, titled "The Real Democrats of DC," will run on television in California, Massachusetts, Hawaii and New York.
Frank, Boxer and Pelosi are long-time supporters of gay rights.
"They're catty! They're arrogant! And they're in charge!" the announcer says. "Under Democrats, reality bites!"
"Barney Frank is an absolute embarrassment," said Christopher R. Barron, Chairman of GOProud's Board of Directors. "He represents the worst kind of Washington politician. A man who treats his constituents with contempt, who gleefully acts as an attack dog for radical left-wing special interests, and whose demeanor is more appropriate for a trashy reality show than for the Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee."
CNN reports that the ad buy cost $50,000.
