Right wingers up the ante: Move from "teabagging" to "M4M"
These people are clueless

http://www.americablog.com/2009/04/possibly-even-better-than-teabagging.html

It's funny enough that the Republicans, and FOX News, are all rallying around a series of protests secretly devoted to a sex act. But now the religious right bigots have one-upped the teabaggers. They've named their new anti-gay anti-marriage campaign after a gay sex call-sign.

Sign me up, hallelujah.

The new anti-gay initiative is called "Two Million for Marriage," and the organizers are calling it "2M4M" for short. Seriously. Now, anybody who's gay, or who has ever read a personal ad, knows that M4M is the call-sign for men seeking other men (and not for spiritual guidance). It's also the name given to chat rooms devoted to gay men hooking up for sex.

The Lord works in mysterious ways.

1. I think it's clear that our spies have moved to the highest ranks and these are clearly their
signals to us to proceed with our agenda!

6. Funny thing...
The haters forgot to buy the domain name. Another person snagged it and is making it into a marriage equality website:

http://www.2m4m.org/

Oops!

The new website is looking for suggestions this weekend if anyone would like to help.

7. They know what they're naming these things and the double meaning
behind them. They're having fun. Like doing the 9-11 attacks on 9-11. The 911 wordplay was no accident.

20. (Beginning to think we have some high-lever infiltrators over there)
First teabagging, and now this?

How can we NOT be doing this?

21. I'm starting to think that this is the case.
Either infiltrators or the entire "Nation for Marriage" organization was started by a wealthy individual or group as a big joke. It just seems to coincidental doesn't it? "Teabagging" I could accept as unintended, but "2M4M"? Come on!

The choice of the 2 million figure seems too arbitrary and too convenient. Why wouldn't you just use a million? Why 2?

I wonder what NOM really stands for?
Maybe "Nation of Men".
http://www.nom.org/
The Nation of Men, a mens community organization in the San Francisco-San Jose Bay Area, gives men a place to be their best — an opportunity to share and explore what makes men great, in the company of other men who care. Men who care about living the best life they can, in the best way they can.
