Mitt Romney supported NOM

Last week I wrote about confidential documents from the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) made public in my post here.  These documents detailed a blueprint written by NOM to drive a wedge between gays and blacks with a “divide and conquer” strategy.

NOM has been considered a fringe group from the beginning.  Their rhetoric and techniques have made them notorious and for that reason only the most virulent opponents to same sex marriage have associated themselves with this organization.

Mitt Romney’s support of NOM is shameful

It was both surprising and disappointing to learn last Friday in 2008 Mitt Romney donated $10,000 to NOM. With scores of organizations opposing same sex marriage, Romney could and did financially support many organizations opposing marriage equality.  So why did he feel the need to also provide such a generous donation to NOM? Political posturing? His belief in NOM?  Regardless Mitt Romney’s support of NOM is shameful.
