We all heard in the news about how actively the Mormans in Utah were funnelling money to the Yes on Hate/8 campaign our in California. The movie "8: The Morman Proposition" -- http://www.mormonproposition.com/-- reveals that they were even more actively involved than we thought, and for even longer than the Californa campaign in 2008. They starting their plots and plans to "protect the sanctity of marriage" with surveys and front groups in Hawaii in the mid-1990's and they are continuing their fight behind the scenes through other front groups, most notably the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) now. (Remember that silly parodied ad on "A Storm in Coming"? That was classic NOM.)
Watch this movie to see how destructive a hierarchical, authoritarian-based religious group can be in coercing its members to act and give and in how little they even try to understand a minority group that they see as an interruption and threat to their religious views of the world and authority.
What's more, they are involved in an active coverup of the extent of their financial involvement, which included professional web sites (see http://www.preservingmarriage.org/), video ads, yard signs, call centers and more which must have totaled millions and millions, yet they are only claiming $2,000 or so and $20K in legal service donations.
Why the coverup and front groups? Beacause what they are doing is illegal. Federal law prohibits involvement in political campaigns and substantial lobbying. See this:
But if all these allegations and all this evidence is true re the Mormans and Prop 8, then this is a blatant violation of the federal law prohibiting involvement in any political campaign and substantial lobbying. Watch more here:
And now HRC is calling on NOM to explain why its Ruth Institute is actively supporting a gubernatorial candidate in California -- Carly Fionina.
Is there no end in sight to the Morman's illegal and offensive intrusion into politics and the private lives of gays and lesbians? Who will stop them? Is the IRS strong enough? Is any Federal agency strong enough these days?
