A national group opposed to same-sex marriage aimed to fight it by driving "a wedge between gays and blacks" and identifying "glamorous" Latino artists and athletes to advocate traditional marriage, according to newly released confidential memos.
The strategies were among several pursued by the National Organization for Marriage (NOM), which has actively campaigned against same-sex marriage efforts.
The Human Rights Campaign, a gay rights organization, said it obtained the documents, part of a civil action in Maine, on Monday and published them on its website.

It reads like something out of a fiction book set in a right-wing fascist state run by a bunch of theocrats! Shame it's true

... it's interesting to me how many times in cases like these that there is a full paper trail of the intended plans and  expected outcome.

I guess if you thing you're going to win, you'd want an accurate history (from your perspective, of course).

That's disgustingly cynical.

What are they so afraid of?

So what if John and David next door are married?
WTF do they think is going to happen? Their kids might catch the "gay disease" from the neighbors?
