Bill Kristol Won't Apologize for Offensive Ad From His Magazine
By Lucas Grindley
http://www.advocate.com/News/Daily_News/2012/01/06/Bill_Kristol_Wont_Apologize_for_Offensive_Ad_from_His_Magazine/The Weekly Standard blames a breakdown in its vetting process for an advertisement emailed to readers that warned of a gay conspiracy to "create a new America."
The advertiser, Public Advocate of the United States, claimed "radical homosexuals" such as Rep. Jared Polis of Colorado had infiltrated the government with a plan to "indoctrinate an entire generation of American children with pro-homosexual propaganda and eliminate traditional values from American society."

The Human Rights Campaign called on TheWeekly Standard's editor, Bill Kristol, a Fox News regular, to condemn the ad. But Politico reports that he won't. Instead, the conservative magazine's publisher has tried to explain how the ad was mistakenly published.
