Thanks to Good As You blogger Jeremy Hooper, singer/songwriter Katie Herzig has forced YouTube to yank the promotional video for NOM’s hate march on the Supreme Court.  Herzig told Hooper that she “definitely supports marriage equality” and did not give NOM permission to use her music.  Hit the second link and check out her tunes!

Explanation here.

NOM’s campaign to oust gay-friendly Illinois GOP chairman Pat Brady has failed. A special Saturday meeting of top Illinois Republicans to debate the fate of state GOP Chairman Pat Brady over his support for same-sex marriage was abruptly canceled after sources said a group pushing for Brady’s ouster lacked the necessary votes. In a statement, several members of the Illinois …

In March of last year, the Omaha City Council narrowly approved a bill granting employment protections to LGBT residents of the city.  Anti-gay Christianist groups immediately launched a campaign to repeal the bill.  Supporting the repeal attempt was Omaha Archbishop George Lucas, who issued a letter demanding that local Catholics sign the repeal petition. Yesterday the backers of the petition …

“I wish you every happiness this Thanksgiving, every opportunity to know the joy of gratitude. Gratitude for this country we share that still gives us the right to fight for what we think is right. Gratitude for each other, for the knowledge we do not fight this great battle alone. So many millions of loving, decent law-abiding Americans have come …

Cats AND dogs! It’s a madhouse!

JFK has a $100M anti-terrorism security system but it couldn’t stop a man with a broken jet-ski who swam three miles to shore then walked across two of the busiest runways in the world. Daniel Casillo, 31, was able to swim up to and enter the airport grounds on Friday night, past an intricate system of motion sensors and closed-circuit …

The Smoking Gun has identified the douchebag who set fire to a box of Cheerios outside the Minnesota headquarters of General Mills. Flaming cereal bits then ignited the company’s lawn and the man and his giggling accomplices fled. The gay marriage opponent seen in a viral video accidentally setting a fire outside the General Mills headquarters is a Minnesota real …

Asshat homophobe for the massive fail. Wanna bet this bit of douchebaggery doesn’t appear on any of the Christian sites still bleating about Manny Castro?(Via Good As You)

Gizmodo chortles at what may be a huge Facebook fail by Chick-Fil-A. Chick-fil-A claimed the toys were pulled because of a “possible safety issue”. That, of course, is a complete lie. A lie that they’re propagating with fake Facebook accounts of Chick-fil-a sympathists. Yep, Chick-fil-A is still stuck in its own reality and is doubling down on its lie. Instead …

We’ll give ole knuckle-dragging Eugene a pass on getting this blog’s name wrong, but what’s more hilarious is his complaint about my “many frequent repostings of the same articles on Public Advocate.” As we’ve seen here many, many times, hate groups just quiver with impotent rage from my incessant homofascist habit of reprinting verbatim exactly what they said. Hey Eugene, …

For the second time, hate groups have failed to raise the required number of petition signatures to force a referendum on California’s SB 48, which requires schools to mention the historical contributions of LGBT persons. Pacific Justice Institute lawyer Kevin Snider said the Stop SB48 campaign did not gather enough signatures by Monday’s deadline to put an initiative on the …

Another shot of good news for your weekend, not that the Liberty Counsel had a chance in hell to succeed. The Appellate Division of state Supreme Court in Rochester ruled against gay marriage opponents who argued that state senators violated New York’s open meeting rules ahead of the law’s passage on June 24, 2011. The law was given final legislative …

Jim Hoft is the guy that skulked around Netroots with his “Breitbart Is Here” nonsense. Snicker.

And even after closet case Matt Drudge gave NOM a screaming headline link to their boycott page, they’ve only gotten about 13,000 signatures. Drudge gets tens of millions of hit per day.

Remember how NOM poured buckets of cash into the New York Senate campaign of Brooklyn businessman David Storobin? Remember how NOM buddied up to an Orthodox Jewish hate group in order to have them issue an order that it’s against Torah law to vote for marriage supporter Lew Fidler? Remember how the election was so close that both sides are …
