Confidential NOM Internal Doc: Goals=Fan Hostility & Create A Race War Between Black/Latino/Gay

[kpete]

Final line I'm amazed NOM put on paper:
Goal of "fanning the hostility" btw blacks and gays
This is seriously f'd up.

A "confidential" internal document of the lead anti-"gay marriage" group, the National Organization for Marriage" (NOM), shows that the organization was not simply content at taking civil rights away from gay couples, they wanted to start a political race war between black, Latino and white Democrats, and they admitted it in writing. They outright admitted that a top goal of the anti-"gay marriage" movement is "fanning the hostility" between blacks and white gays, and between Latinos and gays. They write of the black community, and Latinos, as if they're mere puppets for the religious right to manipulate. And finally, the document seems to suggest that the goal here is not simply to stop the advance of gay civil rights, but rather to hurt the Democratic party.

Court documents prove NOM's plan to divide black, gay communities


The National Organization for Marriage's unsuccessful fight to skirt Maine's financial disclosure laws just backfired majorly on the group by revealing a distasteful part of its game plan to stop marriage equality.

According to a court document that was uploaded online, NOM specifically worked to drive a wedge between the black and gay community on the subject of marriage equality:

According to page 11 of this document called Marriage: $20 Million Strategy for Victory:

Here's the key passage about gays and blacks (and there's also a strategy for Latinos):

The strategic goal of this project is to drive a wedge between gays and blacks - two key democratic constituencies. We aim to find, equip, energize and connect African American spokespeople for marriage; to develop a media campaign around their objections to gay marriage as a civil right; and to provoke the gay marriage base into responding by denouncing these spokesmen and women as bigots. No politician wants to take up and push an issue that splits the base of the party.

1. again

we need to be careful, because the right wing knows we would rather have civil war on the left; If we were not good at that, there would be no way they could sell the grade f meat they offer as candidates.

[left on green only]

2. I guess that the existence of the memo kinda begs the question

Is NOM a hate group, and if so, shouldn't they be able to enjoy the benefits of all other right wing hate groups in America?

Just say'in.

3. They belong on SPLC hate group list ASAP n/t

4. The SPLC, should place them on the list.

That would work for me.

5. It is nice to see in writing what you always knew to be true n/t

7. And now this can be used against them in the equality fights ahead

One in North Carolina soon, this will hopefully backfire big there as well as in MN, WA, and Maine.

6. Yeah, and I remember how it worked here, too.

All those discussions about "are gays racist?" and "do blacks hate gays?" Makes you wonder how wide spread the agent provocateurs really are.

8. Most o that was started as a result of CNNs exit polls which were wrong

Makes you wonder if NOM has an insider at CNN.

9. Why isn't a leftwing organization filing a court brief to strip NOM of it's tax exempt status?

They are engaging in partisan politics.

From Wikipedia:

Political activity

Section 501(c)(3) organizations are subject to limits or absolute prohibitions on engaging in political activities and risk loss of status as tax exempt status if violated.[26]


Where are our watch dogs?

11. NOM is a 501(c)4 not a 501(c)3

16. yes, it has that flavor to it...

[robinlynne]

14. the moment Prop 8 passed in Clifornia, everyone immediatley said it was because black voters were ag

aginst gay marriage! i'll never forget it. We kept saying over and over again, look at the votes; count the votes; check for election fraud. but noone was listening.
it was accepted that"black epople voted against gay marriage." I don't know where the concept came from, but it looks like you just explained it.
It was immediate. within 24 hours.
