Speak out against the Nation for Bigots!

www.NationForMarriage.org -- the website for The National Organization for Marriage (NOM), has released a video speaking out against Gay Marriage.

The video appears like a joke, but it's no laughing matter for those refused this basic civil right.

Frank Rich's NYT opinion piece decries this video as Village of the Damned meets a Chorus Line.

Please find it, flag it, tell your friends, and write to your local representatives in support of marriage as a basic civil right.

It's also fun to point out how none of the situations detailed in the commercial have anything to do with marriage itself. Sure, there's the story about the pavilion, but that is an issue of equal access to publically-used resources.

I think the fact that they actually used the term "rainbow coalition" is really ballsy and really low.

That's what's struck me about the recent batch of conservative invective. It is so smarmy. It's like they're saying na-na-na-na-na. Real adult, kids.

If you're going to speak out against same-sex marriage, might I recommend a healthy dose of class?

Motherfuckers.

FTR covered this two weeks ago. These people are obviously douchetastic, but I still giggle at the fact that the Youtube header says NOM.

OK that was hilarious.

CNN just ran a story about a high school kid who tried to research LGBT scholarships, but the school's filtering software blocked him. The same software, however, allowed many anti-gay websites to be shown.

Ah that makes sense. I scanned visually and did the topic search but didn't catch that.

Still, Frank RIch's condemnation came today, which was the inspiration for the post.

I just came here to post that!

I watched the episode when Stephen Colbert aired it. Some funny shit, if you ask me.



As far as the original video is concerned...


-"My freedom will be taken away..."
Umm... what freedom, exactly? Can anyone tell me, please? Which freedom is this idiot talking about? Seriously?

-"I'm a California Doctor who must choose between my faith, and my job."
What the hell does this have to do with marriage of any kind?

-"I'm part of a New Jersey church group punished by the government because we can't support same sex marriage."
Am I the only one who has to laugh at the wording of this statement? Let's break it down, shall we?

Okay, so I get that this guy is part of a New Jersey church group being punished by the government. But why?

"because we can't support same sex marriage."

Look at that again:

"because we can't support same sex marriage."

That's right... they are being punished by the government because they can't support same sex marriage.

So, what I take away from this is that this particular church group wants to support same-sex marriage, but can't... probably because they're being punished by the government.

-"I am a Massachusetts parent helplessly watching public schools teach my son that gay marriage is okay."
Last I checked, it is okay... unless you want to teach your son that polygamy is okay, which is what "traditional marriage" actually is. Otherwise, you're just dumb blond...

-"But some who advocate for same-sex marriage have not been content with same-sex couples living as they wish." "Those advocates want to change the way I live." "I will have no choice."
*shakes head vigorously*
Umm... wait... what?

When? Where? Who? How? Whay?

I need to know, right now! Facts, statements, numbers! Come on, people!

There is an enemy amongst us, folks! Apparently, there are people who want everybody to...

Well I don't know what, exactly... "change the way I live" is, without a doubt, a vague-as-hell statement. How will they change the way I live? What will I have to do differently? I don't get it...

Hang on...

*goes back to watch video"

The enemy is upon us! I won't let them... change the way I live...

They're going to turn you and everyone you love gay. With their gayzers. That fire gaydiation.

Duh.

And storms. The gay will wash over you like hot August rain and give you great abs, apparently.

Damn! Where do I sign?

Great abs? Bring it.

Just how much gay sex are we talking about?

they can just kiss my ass.

I had enough of this ignorant bullshit back home ................... A marriage is a marriage regardless of gender ........ fucksake !

This made me LOL and I scared my guitar player... Or maybe he just feels the gay storm approaching?

Wow, I want my own personal guitar player. That way I could have a funky bwa-chicka-waka theme song playing where ever I go.

Yes.
