Maggie Gallagher Backs "Ex-Gay" Group

"Chuck Limandri, my old friend from the Carrie Prejean, Prop 8 fights, is a heckuva a lawyer and one brave man. He’s taking on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s massive legal machine to defend the right of Jewish gay people to seek help. SPLC is using consumer-fraud laws to try to bankrupt these small nonprofits and if it wins this case has announced plans to take it nationwide against 70 groups offering some form of sexual-orientation-change efforts. They must not want publicity because this landmark case is flying under all media radar screens." - Maggie Gallagher, writing for the National Review. (Tipped by JMG reader Andre)

FACT CHECK: The SPLC's suit against JONAH is hardly "flying under all media radar screens." It has been reported upon by dozens of new sites, by all the major dailies in New Jersey (where the case was filed), and by virtually every major LGBT news blog in the nation. The case has been mentioned here on JMG over a dozen times since the suit was filed in November 2012.

RELATED: In December last year, Gallagher announced the formation of the above-mentioned Limandri group. She is the chairman of their board of directors.
