As I mentioned yesterday, Peter LaBarbera traveled to Maine to butt into the fight against marriage equality.
He took with him such "experts" as Brian Camenker of the hate group Mass Resistance.
Apparently the press conference was very, very sparsely attended:
About eight people held signs at the news conference, which featured Peter LaBarbera of Americans for Truth About Homosexuality, which is based in Illinois; and Brian Camenker of Mass Resistance, a Massachusetts pro-family group.
"I'm here today to address the media in Maine, and to speak to the people of Maine, about the "yes" vote on Question 1, and what we know to be the intimidating influence that radical homosexual groups have had in influencing a 'no' vote on Q1," Madore said.
In response, Jesse Connolly of No on 1 said he's proud of the financial support the campaign has gotten from a variety of groups, including the Human Rights Campaign and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force.
"Have we received money from HRC and the task force?" he said. "Absolutely. They are wonderful organizations that do a lot of good for a lot of good people."
If you ask me, the Fruedian slip of the millenium occured when LaBarbera made this statement:
Based upon LaBarbera's consistent years of anti-gay activity, one wonders if he is talking about the Maine vote or his personal life.
But since I am not a psychologist, I refuse to speculate on such matters.
The following links give a much better story than I about the entire situation:

Kind of funny in a way, sad in another way..
