HRC Reacts To NOM’s 2012 Losses

The Human Rights Campaign has posted a blistering mocking of NOM’s just-released 2012 tax form, which as I reported this morning shows a net loss of over $2.7M. Just three donors accounted for roughly two thirds of the organization’s funding – further evidence that everyday Americans have little interest in furthering NOM’s extremist agenda. According to the 990 form supplied …

NOM Posts 2012 990: $2.7M In The Red

NOM has published its 2012 tax form and as you can see above, they finished 2012 over $2.7M in the red. Brian Brown took to their blog last night to blast complaints. “NOM fully complies with federal law regarding the public availability of our Form 990 tax return. Our 2012 Form 990 was mailed to the IRS on November 15th …

Fred Karger: Where Are NOM’s 990s?

“We sent a representative to the Washington, DC office of the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) first thing Friday morning to pick up both copies of NOM’s federal tax returns for 2012. NOM’s tax returns were originally due on May 15, 2013, but they took TWO extensions so their final deadline was Friday. Guess what? NO tax returns were available …

MICHIGAN: State Calls Mark Regnerus As Witness In Marriage Equality Lawsuit

Last month a Michigan judge set February 25th as the trial date for the above-titled lawsuit to overturn the state’s ban on same-sex marriage. According to a filing released yesterday, the state is calling discredited researcher Mark Regnerus as an “expert witness” on their behalf.  As tipster Str8 Grandmother put it in an email, those documents from UCF can’t come …

Brian Brown Still Has The Hawaii Sadz

“How many folks still have common sense? Quite a few, actually. We’ve seen this common sense most recently in Hawaii where over ten thousand people came out in peaceful and prayerful protest against their legislature’s decision to redefine marriage. In fact, we know that it is the vast majority of Hawaiians, and by no means the minority, who know that …

Brian Brown Has The Hawaii Sadz

“We are at a crossroads. Even though their legislators betrayed them in Hawaii and Illinois — the people continue to stand up and demand that marriage, religious liberties, and the rights of children be defended! In Hawaii, thousands came to the capital to testify in defense of marriage and religious liberty, and at least ten thousand people rallied outside the …

HomoQuotable – Michelangelo Signorile

“NOM had a terrible year in which the Supreme Court struck down a key section of the Defense of Marriage Act and invalidated Prop 8. Last week alone the group saw Illinois and Hawaii move forward on marriage equality. Its own fundraising appears to have dwindled from the days when NOM would make splashy announcements about big donors. NOM and …

Cruel Irony: Obamacare Opponent Thomas Peters Needs Money For Medical Care

Prior to the July swimming accident that left him a quadriplegic, when NOM communications director Thomas Peters wasn’t tweeting against gay marriage, he was issuing regular denouncements of Obamacare.  But now that he’s at the literal mercy of our current broken medical system,  a campaign for donations will be launched across social media later this week. I doubt that the …

CA Hate Group Claims It Has Signatures To Force Vote On Trans Student Rights

The anti-gay Capitol Resource Group claims that its coalition has gathered enough petition signatures to force a public vote on repealing the bill that grants rights to transgender students. A coalition of conservative groups called Privacy for all Students submitted 620,000 signatures to get the initiative on the November 2014 ballot, said Frank Schubert, the political strategist handling the signature …

Brian Brown Applauds Jo Jordan

“Despite being called ‘Judas’ in the gay press (along with suffering some other malignant and tasteless personal attacks) she is doing the right thing to express concerns about the many examples of punishment that people have suffered when marriage has been redefined elsewhere. Legal scholars on both sides of the issue brought this to the attention of all lawmakers, and …

Brian Brown Has The ENDA Sadz

“We are very disappointed by the Senate’s passage of this bill. While protecting people against discrimination is a very important goal, this legislation is problematic because of its broad and unclear definitions. Concepts like ‘sexual orientation’ and ‘gender identity’ are too vague to be a basis for such a law which could lead to individuals facing reprisals or even criminal …

Brian Brown Has The Illinois Sadz

“It’s disappointing but not surprising that the House has voted to redefine marriage. The losers will be the people of Illinois who will see that redefining marriage will unleash a torrent of harassment toward those who believe that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. Once the law goes into effect in June of next year, we …

Quote Of The Day – Thomas Peters

“The accident has taught me to be more humble and realistic about my own efforts and contributions. Before my accident I took pride in my self-reliance, and my ability to contribute to the causes I care about, and I still do, but since the accident I have gained a far greater appreciation for the fact that everything I do and …

Quote Of The Day – Orson Scott Card

“I’ve had no criticism. I’ve had savage, lying, deceptive personal attacks, but no actual criticism because they’ve never addressed any of my actual ideas. Character assassination seems to be the only political method that is in use today, and I don’t play that game, and you can’t defend against it. All you can do is try to offer ideas, and …

Maggie Gallagher: SCOTUS Will Impose Marriage Nationwide Within Two Years

“I believe the Supreme Court is going to impose gay marriage in all fifty states within the next two years. I think the battle’s going to shift to religious liberty and we’re gonna need politicians with backbone. What happened first in the gay marriage issue is liberals used their dominance in the mainstream media to persuade GOP pundits that they …

NOM Compares Gay Marriage To Incest

Can you smell the desperation? NOM usually stays away from the above sort of vitriol, at least in the United States, but not anymore. In fact, their quote comes from the vile Laurie Higgins of the Illinois Family Institute, which is listed as a hate group by the SPLC, who really needs to consider adding NOM to that list of …

HAWAII: NOM Launches Anti-Gay Marriage Campaign, Pretends To Be Hawaiian

Oh brother. Watch this and be amazed as the entirely Catholic NOM plays Hawaiian music, talks about “our people,” and uses the Hawaiian word for children, “keiki.”
