NOM Hires "Glamourous, Non-Cognative" Kirk Cameron

As readers may recall and as was noted on this blog, when documents were released in the Maine court case investigating NOM's blatant effort to ignore that state's campaign finance disclosure laws, one of the NOM agenda items exposed was: recruit glamorous but unintelligent celebrities. (p.19/20):
"Hollywood with its cultural biases is far bigger than we can hope to be. We recognize this. But we also recognize the opportunity - the disproportionate potential impact of proactively seeking to gather and connect a community of artists, athletes, writers, beauty queens and other glamorous non-cognitive elites across national boundaries. (This is applying the Witherspoon and IAV model to non-intellectual elites.)" (emphasis added)
Another agenda item was to drive a wedge between the gay and black communities.

NOM has obviously worked to implement the first approach - think Carrie Prejean - and now more currently in the form of Kirk Cameron.   Cameron, who really cannot be called a true celebrity any longer, seems only too willing to cooperate with NOM and was recently video taped regurgitating NOM's false anti-gay rhetoric.   All of which leaves me to wonder what's really motivating Cameron.  Particularly in light of the University of Rochester study that demonstrated that often the loudest anti-gay voices are those of the self-loathing closet cases.  Mr. Cameron doth protest too loudly.
