Today the wingnut-o-sphere is awash in “the gaystapo got her!” posts about the firing of Carrie Prejean.

“Hollywood hates Carrie. First they abuse her, then they try to get her to recant, then they threw mud, and now they are doing what they wanted to do from day one: Get rid of Carrie. This cover story about a contract dispute doesn’t pass the smell test. Americans aren’t fooled that easily. God knows, and we know, the truth …

Maggie Gallgher, Tony Perkins, Bishop Harry Jackson, and NY Sen. Ruben Diaz led a “Stand 4 Marriage” rally on the steps of the capitol in Albany yesterday. Blah, blah, blah. (Via – Good As You)

Sen. Ruben Diaz, Tony Perkins, and Maggie Gallagher bring their Three Stooges road show to Albany today for their Stand 4 Marriage event. Bishop Harry “Shemp” Jackson will be in the wings with a bottle of seltzer.

NOM is sounding the sad trombone. “Governor Lynch and a narrow majority of the Legislature today have ripped a significant hole in the fabric of New Hampshire society by passing same-sex marriage legislation,” said Brian Brown, executive director of NOM. “The institution of marriage has served our country well since its founding.

NOM has released a new ad to be aired in Albany and NYC. The clip hits the same tired Prop 8 moments, including the school kids who attended their teacher’s wedding and Gavin Newsom’s “like it or not” quote. Note the African-American announcer. UPDATE: Maggie Gallagher talks to the NYT: The group said it hopes the commercial, which is intended …

“Grandma, why did you put me in that horrible homophobic ad when I was little??

Last week the Cornerstone Research Policy claimed to have surveyed every single household in New Hampshire and found that 65% of the state’s residents oppose same-sex marriage, a claim immediately adopted by Focus On The Family.

Although none have appeared on JMG, you may be seeing ads from NOM popping up on many gay blogs, in your RSS reader, and in other places where their ad is triggered by gay marriage-related keywords. Please be sure and CLICK on these ads every time you see one. They have to pay for every click!

YouTube has reversed itself and restored NOM’s ad featuring Carrie Prejean. The ad was taken down after Perez Hilton claimed copyright infringement for a 3-second glimpse of his video blog reaction to the Miss USA pageant. For a detailed analysis of YouTube’s ruling, visit Copyrights & Campaigns, which you should note is a site written by John McCain’s former Special …

Again, I’m surprised with Perez Hilton.

The Miss California USA pageant doesn’t want NOM using images from the contest on their website. Via TMZ: The Miss Universe Organization just told us they’ve fired off a cease and desist letter to the National Organization for Marriage — after NOM used footage from the Miss USA 2009 pageant in an anti-gay marriage commercial. The commercial — which is …

Garsh, Miss California, what is it, exactly, that I’m lying about? UPDATE: So how do we find out if this Twitter account really belongs to her? A little help!
