For anyone wondering what kind of person would see fit to get behind the oh-so-delightful “Ho-surance” ad campaign, the mystery’s been solved. And shockah! It’s a dude:
Of course it was a man. RT @McShauno: @DLoesch creator of the ads is right here: @AlanFranklin

Shock! Another sexist liberal male creates sexist ads to degrade women and be thought of as simple sex objects —> @alanfranklin
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) November 12, 2013
Bigger shockah? It’s this dude:
Picture in your head what the brains behind the #GotInsurance ads looks like. Then compare it to reality -> https://t.co/67mG2xgwWt

Meet Alan Franklin, ProgressNow Colorado’s political director and bona fide super-stud:
Ooo … wonder what he’s thinking about right at that moment. Probably his world getting rocked:
Roller derby girls rock my world. #GotInsurance #ThanksObamacare http://t.co/MA5lsaIhTq #copolitics

Hardcore, dude.
@McShauno You make me laugh like a clown. In Spanish, the word "clown" is "payaso." I'm here to educate as well as entertain.
— Alan Franklin (@alanfranklin) November 12, 2013
He speaks Spanish? Muy caliente! And he totally understands women.
Nice of "Got Brosurance" ad creator @alanfranklin to mansplain things to the little women. @KeeleyMullis

@KeeleyMullis We weren't exactly hoping for NFIB to approve. Thanks! #gotinsurance

@KeeleyMullis …and you're @NFIB's "grassroots advocacy director." But thanks for playing! #gotinsurance

[email protected] No, it just means that responsible young adults weren't his target audience. Which is evident. @alanfranklin

@KeeleyMullis Not at all, but it does tell me how much I should care about it. That is, your opinion. #gotinsurance
— Alan Franklin (@alanfranklin) November 12, 2013
@exjon @alanfranklin @KeeleyMullis So he's "Political Director, ProgressNow Colorado. All opinions are my own", but KM's opinions = NFIB's
— Cask Strength (@ChampionCapua) November 12, 2013
@ChampionCapua @KeeleyMullis She's welcome to care as much about my opinion as I do about hers, you betcha. #copolitics #gotinsurance
— Alan Franklin (@alanfranklin) November 12, 2013
Charming bastard, isn’t he?
Nice ads, bro! #Hosurance @alanfranklin
— Tyler McNally (@Tyler_McNally) November 12, 2013
This guy thinks young women are basically skanks -> https://t.co/67mG2xgwWt And he's Democrat.
— RBe (@RBPundit) November 12, 2013
@KatiePavlich that guy is a fucking clown. Yeah, you @alanfranklin
— SkiWookiee (@SkiWookiee) November 12, 2013
Congratulations, Alan. You’re the man!
Hilarious that @alanfranklin creator of Ocare/birth control ads claim we slut shame when it's his ads that do that. Of course a man did it.
— Kathleen McKinley (@KatMcKinley) November 12, 2013
Franklin can try all he wants to make Republicans the bad guys here:
Republicans affecting puritanical indignation should look at @MichelleMalkin's #hosurance tag (now trending). #gotinsurance #thanksobamacare
— Alan Franklin (@alanfranklin) November 12, 2013
But it won’t work.
@alanfranklin imagines that the #hoinsurance hashtag is directed at women. No. It's directed at how he obviously sees women.
— Kathleen McKinley (@KatMcKinley) November 12, 2013
Bingo. This calls for a boom-worthy exit question:
Hmm. I wonder why the #GotInsurance scro @alanfranklin didn't model in his shittastic pathetic ads. Could it be because… #GotShower ? #No
— LMR (@LilMissRightie) November 12, 2013
Annnnd a win:
looking at Alan Franklin's avi, pretty sure birth control doesn't come up often as an issue.

Well played.
