A federal appeals court in Boston has denied NOM’s latest attempt to continue shielding their list of donors from Maine as is required by state election finance law. But it’s not over yet. The group, known by its initials “NOM” contributed nearly $2 million to last year’s successful campaign to overturn Maine’s gay marriage law. Opponents say NOM has failed …

“Happy sexual deviance month–or, as this President likes to call it, Gay Pride Month. Under this administration, every month feels like one long same-sex parade. For the second year in a row, however, the White House decided to make it official, weighing in with its second proclamation for ‘Gay Pride Month’ detailing how homosexuals and cross-dressers have “enriched’ American life. …

It’s time for the Southern Poverty Law Center to reclassify the Family Research Council as an official hate group, not merely anti-gay as they are now listed. According to the FRC’s official lobbying report for the first quarter of 2010, they paid two of their henchmen $25,000 to lobby Congress against approving a resolution denouncing Uganda’s plan to execute homosexuals. …

The nation’s hate groups were noticeably silent about last week’s hospital visitation directive from President Obama. Until now.Focus On The Family: “What complicated this memo — and is a concern to us — is the third point, [in which] the president directs Health and Human Services to investigate and to look for ways to perhaps give even more rights to …

The National Organization for Marriage announced today that Maggie Gallagher will be stepping down as president. Brian Brown, their executive director, will assume the title. Brian has not only “overseen” — he has instigated and created (under God) NOM’s incredible growth in less than three years: from one donor to 35,000, from no activists to over 500,000, from zero public …

Bilerico’s Jillian Weiss alerts us that Roll Call, the respected DC journal of Capitol Hill goings-on, has published a vile anti-ENDA column by Andrea Lafferty of the SPLC-certified hate group, the Traditional Values Coalition. Rather than mentioning that ENDA would protect millions of gays and lesbians from employment discrimination, Lafferty focuses on the haters’ favorite target, trans folk. In 2008, …

The virulently anti-gay Iowa Family Policy Center has received over $3M in federal funding in the last five years. In 2004 and 2005 the IFPC received a total of $850,000 from the Administration for Children and Families’ Compassion Capital Fund. From 2006 to 2009 they received $2.2 million through the U.S. Healthy Marriage Demonstration Fund, which is doled out in …

“In the next few weeks, President Obama, Speaker Pelosi, and their homosexual and transgender allies will attempt to ram through the so-called Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA). What you may not know is that ENDA normalizes and provides special federal protection for 30+ bizarre sexual orientations listed by the American Psychiatric Association – the so-called ‘Dirty 30.’ These 30+ fetishes include …

Blogger Jake Garland turned up the following: “NOTE: The Ku Klux Klan, LLC, has not or EVER will have ANY connection with the ‘Westboro Baptist Church.’ We absolutely repudiate their activities.” Uh, yay?

“The folly of the SPLC’s expanding ‘hate’ dragnet is that it threatens to engulf all religious/moral opposition to homosexuality. Indeed, it would be revealing to query the top 25 ‘GLBT’ activist across the nation and ask them if they would also label, as Matt Barber pokes fun HERE, the following as ‘hate groups’: Family Research Council, AFA, the Roman Catholic …

“What about the hateful rhetorical attacks against me and AFTAH and nasty shibboleths that come routinely from the Left? ‘Porno Pete’? Honestly, this is the type of malicious, hateful slander I experience on a daily basis (it is analogous in its ugliness to Phelps’ use of the term “Fag”). It appears the SPLC has a glaring double standard that you …

Due to the lobbying of Chicago’s Gay Liberation Network, Porno Pete LaBarbera’s Americans For Truth About Homosexuality has been listed as a hate site by the Southern Poverty Law Center, the watchdog group that tracks hate groups in numerous categories. Via Andy Thayer at Feast Of Fools: After years of vilifying gays as disease-prone and child molesters, the website of …

Westboro Baptist Church’s freedom of speech case is coming up in the Supreme Court. Tonight the pundits on Hardball discussed whether Westboro “should be shut down.”

Good As You points us to this clip of anti-gay Iowans chanting their desire to inflict their bigotry on their gay neighbors. LUV Iowa is working towards a 2014 repeal of marriage equality, the earliest it can be achieved.

The guys at Box Turtle Bulletin are doing fantastic work exposing the American evangelicals behind Uganda’s “kill gays” bill. Here’s their first of three clips in a series about Scott Lively, who helped organize the conference that resulted in the bill. Lively’s book, The Pink Swastika, claims that gay men orchestrated the Holocaust. Because we are all serial killers at …

American evangelical Scott Lively, widely considered to be the chief U.S. architect of Uganda’s “kill gays” bill, today issued a press release saying that while he bears no responsibility for the legislation, which he calls a “serious overcorrection,” he also “commends the courage of the Ugandan people.” By official count 22 young men were executed under Uganda’s law on homosexuality. …

JMG reader John points us to this bit of asshattery. HOME is a crackpot group created by Wayne Lela, who claims (among other things) that the Freemasons are a homosexual front group that routinely hosts “homosexual orgies.” If only! Lela, in addition to staging anti-gay protests at college campuses, and once running for U.S. president, has the backing of NARTH, …

Last month we learned that Uganda, where being gay can already bring a life sentence, was considering a death penalty for homosexual acts in certain situations. The proposed new law is now before Uganda’s parliament. Life imprisonment is the minimum punishment for anyone convicted of having gay sex, under an anti-homosexuality bill currently before Uganda’s parliament. If the accused person …
