Press Release Of The Day

From Freedom To Marry.

“The so-called National Organization for Marriage is all bark and no bite when it comes to threats against the freedom to marry in Washington state. Any Republican lawmaker in Washington who stands up for loving and committed same-sex couples will be treated as a hero, just as bipartisan support has been applauded in New York and elsewhere in America by gay and non-gay communities alike. Those of us who support marriage have demonstrated time and again that we’ll be loyal to elected officials who make the politically smart and morally correct choice in extending the freedom to marry to gay couples. As NOM travels the country making empty threats, their presence continues to be unwanted by citizens and irrelevant to politicians.”

NOM has pledged $250K to fight gay marriage in Washington state and vows to launch a ballot repeal campaign should it pass. Hmm, only $250K? Considering what they've pledged elsewhere, it sounds like NOM doesn't want to piss away a lot of money on a lost cause.
