Anti-equality young person Ryan Anderson: 'Glee' corrupts youth!
Ryan Anderson, one of the four or five young people who the other side keeps pushing forward in order to convince us that they are stand-ins for a much larger movement (Peters, Teetsel, and Seery being the other main subjects), shares the following thoughts about the very pro-LGBT Glee:
"We should be as concerned about what the FOX TV show Glee has done to corrupt a young generation as we are about anything the Court has done. But what is the Christian alternative to Glee? We need to encourage...
Run like IFI's exceedingly discriminatory shelf life depend$ on it!
The Illinois Family Institute is the chief organization working to stop marriage equality in the Land of Lincoln. The IFI also just so happens to be one of the most incendiary statewide policy groups work against us today, with a president who routinely calls us "depraved" and in need of "change," a lead researcher who loves to equate us with incest and polygamy, a close ally who teaches that homosexuality is Satan's plan, and public events telling Illinoisans that their gay neighbors are an...
ADF's latest attempt to take focus off their terrible court presentation
This is the graphic and text that the ever-deceptive Alliance Defending Freedom (formerly the Alliance Defense Fund) is using to illustrate its latest legal attempt to stop marriage equality in California:
[adf]
Ridiculous. No one is denying that Proposition 8 happened. But what the Alliance Defending Freedom is, in fact, doing is pretending that the judiciary has a say in determining whether or not ballot initiatives are constitutionally sound. This is a remarkably silly (and anti-intellectual...
8 more white, straight-identified, male House Republicans who hope to turn U.S. Constitution into weapon against gays
The following eight House Republicans have added their names to the previously-announced list of cosponsors for the renewed attempt to pass a Federal Marriage Amendment:
[SOURCE: GovTrack]
This brings the total to thirty-seven white, straight-identified, GOP men who are leading this push to turn the nation's most precious governing document into a direct repudiation of families headed by same-sex couples. These men, who presumably know nothing about what it actually means to be gay, are steppin...
Group wants to impeach Obama over 'gay lovers'; oh and murder too, apparently
Far-right outlets like WorldNetDaily are trying to raise the profile of a new group called "Overpasses for Obama Impeachment," an org that whose primary activist consists of standing on highway overpasses and holding up nasty signs attacking the President. Because you gotta have weekend hobbies, you know?
Here now, the list of "reasons" this group gives for presidential impeachment:
Reasons For Impeachment [Overpasses for Obama Impeachment]
Breitbart? Murder? Muslim? Drug use? Gay Lovers? Forget...
Bryan Fischer links Zimmerman verdict to DOMA, Prop 8; because of course he did
A bizarrely obsessed American Family Association spokesman continues to work out his public frustrations:
Legal marriages for adults vs. justice for the murder of unarmed minors. "I see your connection, Bryan!" exclaimed no one outside of Fischer's listening audience.

More Than Marriage: NOM co-founder goes after trans kids
The Catholic radio caller (first voice) is more than eager to conflate homosexuality with gender identity, claiming that gay (and opportunistic) boys can use transgender nondiscrimination/equal access laws to infiltrate girl's bathrooms. And National Organization For Marriage cofounder Robert George (third voice) is more than willing to help her, viciously going after these trans kids—who, I might remind you, are among the most vulnerable children on the planet—by contrasting them with "real"...
Film company defends 'Ender's Game' (and repudiates NOM)
The New York Times has the statement:
As proud longtime supporters of the LGBT community, champions of films ranging from “Gods and Monsters” to “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” and a company that is proud to have recognized same-sex unions and domestic partnerships within its employee benefits policies for many years, we obviously do not agree with the personal views of Orson Scott Card and those of the National Organization for Marriage. However, they are completely irrelevant to a discussi...
NOM's co-founder: Anti-gay soldiers suffer under new form of Don't Ask Don't Tell
For years, brave men and women who wanted to fight and possibly even die for their country were kicked out of the armed forces simply because of who they are. In order to remain in the military, these men and women hid every detail of their lives so as to not be "found out." Whereas it is said that a dying soldier is most likely to cry out his or her love for a spouse, for LGB soldiers prior to 2011 (and T soldiers now), mere acknowledgment of basic facts about family and life could lead to a...
Prop 8 proponents try again to stop bombing, looting, wildfires, riots that marriage equality has created
And they're back again, folks:
SAN FRANCISCO -- Opponents of same-sex marriage asked the California Supreme Court on Friday to order county clerks to deny marriage licenses to same-sex couples, arguing that Gov. Jerry Brown lacked the authority to end enforcement of Proposition 8.
