Takedown of NOM’s Lies About Prop 8 (video: stop8org at YouTube) Well done, Matt. Over at http://stop8.org, we see a lot of silly claims about Prop 8, but the new radio ad put out by the National Organization for Marriage last week is just out-and-out deceitful. It’s packed full of lies and misrepresentations, so we [...]

Apparently, the National Organization for Marriage just got the memo. The common sense end of the GOP is about to throw the gay-hating, Bible-banging nutters who hijacked their party under the bus. But don’t pop that cork quite yet. As does anything that issues forth from Queen Maggie and her personal Igor, Brian Brown, this [...]

Gathering Storm 1960′s Parody (video: FireproofAshes at YouTube) “If coloreds are allowed to marry whites, what’s next … homosexuals?” Love it. Fireproof Ashes: A good ol’ fashioned commercial from the 60′s, upholding traditional values and fighting against the evils of the day. This is a satire of the original NOM Gathering Storm advertisement, located here [...]

DC- Rowdy NOM religious fanatics (video: NOMTourTracker.com at YouTube) They’re just simple down home folks like you and me, only some of them want folks like you and me executed or denied or deprived of our civil rights. Here are a few fans and followers of the National Organization for Marriage’s fabulous, if poorly attended, [...]

Emergency! Emergency! Must stop those evil California gays from tying the knot. Yawn. Yes on Prop H8 now suddenly claims to have lots of arguments against marriage equality, but, as you read NOM president Brian Brown‘s breathless intro (“I’ve never seen a smackdown of a judge quite like it”), recall that Yes on Prop 8′s [...]

“Once again, voters have sent a message to politicians that supporting gay marriage is a career-ending move. We sent two district-wide mailings and paid for a newspaper ad to make sure that voters in this district knew their [Minnesota] state Senator wanted to legalize gay marriage. As a result, Senator Koering was trounced. “NOM has [...]

What has been gushing out of the National Organization for Marriage’s black hole since yesterday afternoon, when Judge Walker declared California’s Prop H8 unconstitutional, is beyond merely insulting. Just how ignorant do these professional anti-gays, like NOM‘s President Brian Brown, really think the American people are? Or, are they just talking amongst themselves? It’s a [...]

Details and reactions are being added as they come in … Tonight! Summer’s here and so’s equality. The time is right for dancing in the streets. Day of Decision II in San Diego: There will be a march and town hall meeting tonight in San Diego: We’ll march at 6:00 pm from Sixth & University [...]

In a few hours, we will know how Judge Walker rules in the Prop 8 case. His opinion, and especially his findings of fact – regardless of which way he rules – will shape the litigation as it moves forward on appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit. Many expect this [...]

NOM: “Pro gay marriage protestors surround nom rally in attempt to drown out bishop” (video: NationForMarriage at YouTube) What. Utter. Crap! The real news is: Neither NOM‘s Maggie Gallagher nor Brian Brown have commented on, let alone repudiated, the homophobic, genocidal, double-noose sign carried by one of NOM’s radical cleric pals to their anti-equality rally [...]

“[The National Organization for Marriage has] taken great pains to make clear what we’re all about. We view ourselves as a new civil rights movement … committed to something that in the 1960s was key: the right to vote.” — Brian Brown, President of the National Organization for Marriage, who seems to have forgotten that [...]

NOM needs a hug – recorded on July 27, 2009 using a Flip Video camcorder (video: jans4555 at YouTube) The anti-equality National Organization for Marriage‘s Maggie Gallagher and Brian Brown are making a federal case about how they’re being outnumbered and oppressed by the mean old pro-marriage-equality demonstrators with their rainbow-colored umbrellas and the ruckus [...]

NOMTourTracker.com: Equality supporter talks about physical confrontation in Indianapolis (video: Courage Campaign’s NOM Tour Tracker at YouTube) The dude who sucker punched this woman must not have gotten the message from NOM’s Maggie Gallagher that hate is not a family value. Perhaps NOM’s Brian Brown and Maggie should give some thought to resending that memo [...]

In largest crowd to date, equality supporters outnumber NOM by more than 8 to 1 (photo: Courage Campaign’s NOM Tour Tracker) Today’s scorecard from Indianapolis: NOM 54, Equality 466. Chin up, Maggie and Brian. Equality activist, blogger and filmmaker Rob Tisinai has more than helpfully thrown together some revised artwork for you that reflects, rather [...]

The National Organization for Marriage‘s President, Brian Brown, just fired off a desperate “Urgent Action Needed!” email pleading with his flock of knuckle-dragging, Bible-banging anti-gays to “call and email the Senate today!” And tell them to “Vote No on DISCLOSE Act.” Quckly! Quckly! Why? Because if this law passes, NOM and the rest of the [...]
