select g_id, :mypid,
   (case when r.p_id is null then 'no' else 'yes' end) is_member from g left 
join r on (g.g_id = r.g_id and r.m_id = :mypid); order by (r.p_id is null), 
g_id;

On an unrelated note, your text fields should have the type of "text", not 
"string". The latter has no special meaning to SQLite, but the former does. For 
details, see http://sqlite.org/datatype3.html
