Horse-play fetishists, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, butch lesbians. Those are the images that New Hampshire’s anti-marriage hate group is using as the banner on their website. Because male nuns are going to give you a crewcut and force you to pull their carriage! (Via – Good As You)

Standing Up For NH Families says: “We feel we have an absolute obligation to remind legislators just how popular this law is, and how opposed voters are to any effort to repeal or dismantle it in any way, shape or form,” said Lew Feldstein, co-chair of Standing Up for New Hampshire Families, and the former president and CEO of the …

“I was undecided. But I’m totally convinced today that he’s not going to be my president, at least in my book. At least Obama will entertain the idea. This man is ‘no way, Jose.’ Well, take that ‘no way, Jose’ back to Massachusetts. Because I’m gay, alright? And I happen to love a man just like you probably love your …

Above is Bob Garon, the gay-married Vietnam Vet who grilled Mitt Romney on his vow to support the repeal of same-sex marriage in New Hampshire. I’m posting Garon’s photo because his face didn’t appear in the clip we saw yesterday.

At a campaign stop in a New Hampshire diner, Mitt Romney slid into a booth to chat with a man wearing a Vietnam Veteran cap.

“They object to us using a photo of a crowd scene, which symbolizes the tens of thousands of New Hampshire voters who are part of our effort. They’re upset that the photo was not taken at a NOM rally. Seriously?! NOM using a common use photo in the public domain is considered a great scandal, yet they can redefine marriage—the …

Lots of folks think Rick Perry was hammered when he made the below speech, a portion of which I excerpted earlier today.

“This is such a cool state. I mean, come on, ‘Live free or die’? You gotta love that, right? I come from a state where they had this little place called the Alamo, and they declared ‘Victory or death.’ You know, we’re kinda into those slogans, man, it’s like ‘Live free or die,’ Victory or death, bring it!” – Rick …

“As conservatives we believe in the sanctity of life. We believe in the sanctity of traditional marriage.
