Has the National Organization for Marriage Chief Charlatan, Brian Brown, gone off the rails?

Yesterday, AKARBENT went to NOM's blog to see what kind of fit it might be raising about Washington State's pro-gay marriage Senate vote and found a shrill, red "TAKE ACTION NOW" button above the following.

Last April, the Navy issued new “sensitivity training” guidelines that required Navy chaplains to perform same-sex marriages. Thanks to leadership from Congressmen Tim Huelskamp and Todd Akin, the Navy backed down and rescinded the guidelines.

Our assumption, in respect of Brian Brown, is that if he doesn't link to something credible, then he's lying. There was no link supporting his latest bizarre accusation.

Later, at Box Turtle Bulletin, Rob Tisinai busted Brown with this:

Here’s what those (now-rescinded) guidelines said:

Regarding chaplain participation, consistent with the tenets of his or her religious organization, a chaplain may officiate a same-sex, civil marriage: if it is conducted in accordance with the laws of a state which permits same-sex marriage; and if the chaplain is, according to applicable state and local laws, otherwise fully certified to officiate that state’s marriages.

Oddly, NOM's blog still allows comments, (Now there's a death wish!) many of which also ripped NOM's blatant lie. Is Brown just going through the motions these days, waiting for NOM's very expensive Citizen's United lawyers to overturn campaign finance laws in the states in which NOM is challenging them?

If so, it would explain why he apparently doesn't care any more whether anything he says or writes sounds plausible — if he's just waiting for the courts to validate NOM's campaign disclosure disobedience and for the Astroturf puppeteers to turn the money spigots back on after being guaranteed continued anonymity, then why should Brown care about making credible arguments to nonbillionaire losers?
