A recent addition to the NOM bus tour (against same-sex marriage) are the clean cut young men in their oh-so-attractive red capes and gold heraldic lion brooches. They're from American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property (more below).

Now they have a poll up that asks: "What do you think about Judge Walker's decision to overturn Prop. 8 banning same-sex "marriage" in California?"

5. thanks for saying it for me. and who wants to bet their own morans were voting "I support it"

originally thinking "sure, I support prop H8!"... ha. A biased website like that isn't going to garner many free thinkers, so it wouldn't surprise me.

Sheesh, not only do not understand the constitution, they don't even understand their own fairy tales.
