NOM's Maggie Gallagher to Marylanders: 'Don't Mess Around with the Meaning of Marriage'
Monday on TBDs NewsTalk, NOM's Maggie Gallagher appeared to express her giddiness that Maryland's marriage equality bill might not pass, and the possibility of a referendum if it does.
Jeremy Hooper at Good As You notes that Gallagher brings up her same tired, divisive arguments, including the idea that the "Black church" has united against the measure, and references to a skewed NOM poll.
Gallagher still can't say how allowing gays to marry has hurt "traditional" marriage in other places.
Watch, AFTER THE JUMP...
Andy, you must find sinful delight in finding just the right Maggie Gallagher image to torture us with.

Ugh! When will a cardiac arrest finally relieve the world of this creature?

Ahh, I love waking up to my first blog read of the day and its her mug. So much for extra snooze time today.

Sorry Maggie but my marriage was not "just a civil marriage" it was performed in a chruch by a ordained minister. Where is the freedom of religion for the congregation that welcomed Greg and I across the state line? Or are you saying only your church deserves freedom?

Quick, push it out to sea... it's dying...

Poor Maggie. That little love muffin just needs a "sassy gay friend" to take her to a show tune night. Get her all drunk in a roomful of worked out shirtless men singing power ballads, while touching up her hair and makeup. And at the end of the night, letting her go to the front of the bathroom line to puke in the only women's stall in the bar.
Bet she would support same sex marriage after that.

Good lord, she looks more and more like Jabba the Hutt.

Oh, Maggie! I hate to descend to an ad feminem comment, but if your puffed up body is representative of what a "traditional" marriage produces--let's all just live sinfully.

Memo to Maggie: Time to lay off the Hagen Dazs!

I know one "traditional marriage" that will surely be hurt by gay marriage. And that is Ms. Gallagher's. I can only imagine her becoming more intolerable after her hate crusade is over and she stops bringing in the bigot bacon. Not to mention all that time she'll have to actually be around her husband.
I believe 'she's just...terrible.' is an irreconcilable difference and grounds for divorce.

MY GOD, she looks like Violet, the girl who turned into a giant blueberry in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory!
Where are the Oompa Loompas when you need them?

Gluttony for food and attention have taken over this woman -- if there is a hell there is a place waiting for this woman.
On that we can rest easy.

I couldn't watch this video. Can't stand her voice. But I have to say that the picture of Maggot made me laugh. She gotta stop eating nachos after midnight!

Maggie, when you fill yourself with hate like you do, you're BOUND to look like you're about to explode! That's a heavy burden to carry, when you see what it does to you, shouldn't you just give it up? Man alive.... grotesque!

Have another doughnut, Mags. We've got the ambulance waiting.

The sad thing is she is she believes she is right.
Posted by: Matt26 | Mar 9, 2011 9:22:17 AM
Yeah, yeah she's fat but she's still kicking your asses while you type away on these blogs.
You guys need to look to us in the UK about how to legislatively get things done regarding gay people.
For one, we dont bite the hands that feeds us like mentally disturbed cry babies.

Jesus Christ, she's so ugly inside it's oozed out.

"Jabba no bargain!"
Posted by: Martin Johns | Mar 9, 2011 9:24:59 AM
Why can't she just go ahead and say she hates gay people? The truth shall set you free they say but Maggie can't muster the guts to do it. So much energy wasted that could help build the world we live in. Human society should be classified a virus for the way it plagues this planetary ecological system.

Hey Maggie lets talk about the definition of fat and unhappy

if there is a hell, I wouldnt want to be in that cavernous pit when satans minions put this hags body on a bed of firey coals! the fat content would send the devil himself for cover when it ignites.

The "black church" in Maryland IS totally against it, and I fear that their side is going to win. They are a very powerful force.
Posted by: Laurie | Mar 9, 2011 9:40:22 AM
I think she believes if she just keeps saying it people will believe her.. Just like people that preach on the st.

Rowan, the UK has its own problems, and what works there will likely not work here in the same way. That's due to a lot of things... different governmental procedures, different culture, and a VERY much reduced influence of religion. The legacy of the puritans has continued rather remarkably over the centuries, and the fact that the largest baby boom in American history is now retiring and becoming super conservative isn't helping things at the ballot box.
I would also hesitate to say that Maggie Gallagher is kicking anyone's ass at the ballot box. It has nothing to do with Gallagher. She's just a mouthpiece. A very fat, ugly mouthpiece. The main problem here is the aging right wing population bulge, and the continued influence of know-nothing religiosity in America.
If you know of some sort of magic legislative approach that will fix those two problems, then please... let us know. We're all ears.
