The folks at the National Organization for Marriage are quickly earning a reputation as an incompetent, delusional organization ill-prepared to handle defending "traditional marriage."

I mean come on -- all these people have managed to do is make their cause look absurd at this point. NOM produced a widely derided and parodied "Gathering Storm" ad, let loose its diva of discrimination Maggie Gallagher on the air to do an ace job of serial lying and playing a bigoted bully as a talking head, and with today's ad and ridiculous press conference with Miss Pageant-Paid-for Fake Jugs for Jesus California, NOM is further marginalizing itself.

But it gets worse. NOM claims it doesn't hate the gays, but on its board it has a real live wire. People For the American Way President Michael Keegan:

"If the National Organization for Marriage wants to make the comments of a gossip columnist and a beauty queen the subject of a national debate, then it should answer for the bizarre and troubling remarks of its most prominent board member - best-selling science fiction writer Orson Scott Card.
