NOM launches tweet offensive

The National Organization for Marriage (NOM) had maintained Twitter silence for a few days. But no more: the group posted a series of tweets this afternoon hitting back at their critics.

First some background. NOM launched a $1.5 million ad campaign this week, including an ad that featured “real people” talking about how same-sex marriage would adversely affect their lives. The Human Rights Campaign got their hands on the casting tape for the ad, leaking it to the blogosphere in hopes of underming the ad’s claim to genuineness.

In that light, take a look at NOM’s tweets today:
