Did you know that the Ninth Circuit Court declared marriage itself to be unconstitutional? According to NOM, it did. Brown Brownshirt: I don’t know about you but my blood is boiling!

Salon has posted a lengthy profile of Maggie Gallagher in which Slaggie’s past and present is examined exhaustively for clues to the motivations for her campaign against gay civil rights.

The anti-gay Minnesota For Marriage appears to have dodged state campaign finance laws in accepting shielded donations from NOM and the Catholic Church. Rosie Gray reports at Buzzfeed: Minnesota for Marriage Chairman John Helmberger sent a series of emails soliciting contributions not to its own political action committee – which must disclose its donors – but to a non-profit group …

Enjoy! “As sweeping and wrong-headed as this decision is, it nonetheless was as predictable as the outcome of a Harlem Globetrotters exhibition game,” said Brian Brown, NOM’s president. “We have anticipated this outcome since the moment San Francisco Judge Vaughn Walker’s first hearing in the case. Now we have the field cleared to take this issue to the US Supreme …

According to NOM, Ron Paul hasn’t won a primary because he’s the only one who didn’t sign their hate pledge. And not, you know, because he’s a screaming weirdo from another planet.

Minnesota For Marriage has posted over $830,000 in donations, almost all of which comes from the Catholic Church and NOM, which likely gets most of their money from the Catholic Church. Feed the poor? Clothe the homeless? FUCK THAT. Hit the link and scroll through. (Via JMG reader Jim)

NOM is claiming that the Navy ordered chaplains to perform same-sex marriages. Did you see this day coming? Who would have thought we needed a federal statute to protect military chaplains—and other servicemen and women—who believe that marriage is between one man and one woman? But just months after the repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, there is a full-on …

In perhaps their most dishonest twisting of somebody’s words yet, NOM is demanding that NJ Gov. Chris Christie withdraw the state Supreme Court nomination of Bruce Harris because he supposedly compared Christianity to slavery. Chris Christie has been the hope of millions of Americans across the country looking for honest conservative leadership. Last week we asked you to thank Gov. …

NOM has lost yet another court battle to hide its donor list from the state of Maine. An appeals court on Tuesday upheld the state’s campaign disclosure law that requires a national anti-gay-marriage group to release its donor list, but the group plans to take the fight to shield the list to the U.S. Supreme Court. The decision pertains to …

“Americans should be able to drink a peaceful cup of coffee without worrying that a portion of the company’s profits is going to be used to push gay marriage without a vote from the people.

“There’s a brouhaha brewing in New Jersey over Gov. Chris Christie’s nomination to the New Jersey Supreme Court of Bruce Harris. Turns out Harris wrote a letter in 2009 supporting gay marriage — and equating support for our marriage tradition with slavery. This is a potentially huge red flag for those who see Christie as the future of the conservative …

NOM is very excited about Wednesday’s vote: For more than two years, we’ve been working towards this moment. Thanks to your hard work and dedication, a majority in both houses now supports marriage and we are optimistic about next Wednesday’s vote. But Governor Lynch has already made it crystal clear that he plans to veto the bill—meaning it will take …
