The Christian Civic League of Maine's Mike Hein calls Pam's House Blend:
"a leading source of radical homosexual propaganda, anti-Christian bigotry, and radical transgender advocacy."
He is "praying that Pam Spaulding will "turn away from her wicked and sinful promotion of homosexual behavior."
(CCLM's web site, 10/15/07)
Ex-gay "Christian" activist James Hartline on Pam:
"I have been mocked over and over again by ungodly and unprincipled anti-christian lesbians."
(from "Six Years In Sodom: From The Journal Of James Hartline," 9/4/2006, written from the "homosexual stronghold" of Hillcrest in San Diego)."Pam is a 'twisted lesbian sister' and an 'embittered lesbian' of the 'self-imposed gutteral experiences of the gay ghetto.'" -- 9/5/2008
Peter LaBarbera of Americans for Truth Against Homosexuality heartily endorses the Blend, calling Pam:
A "vicious anti-Christian lesbian activist."
(Concerned Women for America's radio show [9:15], 1/25/07)
"A nutty lesbian blogger."
(MassResistance radio show [16:25], 2/3/07)
Pam's House Blend always seems to find these sick f*cks. The area of the country she is in? The home state of her wife? I know, they are everywhere. Pam just does such a great job of bringing them out into the light.

As of yesterday, there is now a "compromise bill" being offered that frankly, is not going to go anywhere imo.
Flipping through radio channels this morning, I heard something new- a commercial against gay marriage by NationForMarriage.org It's awful- a little girl's voice is used to ask the usual drivel of questions, a "concerned" woman doing the sell... GAH.
Didn't know right off who the heck they were, so came home and looked them up.
From their site:
Stand for Marriage in the Northeast!
NOM Launches Northeast Action Plan!
March 16, 2009 -- NOM launched its Northeast Action Plan today with a series of radio ads airing in Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. The ads open with a child asking questions about same-sex marriage: "If my Dad married a man, who would be my Mom?"
Listeners then hear an urgent marriage alert, asking them to contact their legislators in opposition to same-sex marriage legislation pending in the three states.
We need your help! Please make a generous donation today to help us keep these ads on the air!
So went to their "About Us"- lo and behold, their "president" is none other than Maggie Gallagher!

| Louise :: More "Out-Of-Staters" Weighing In On Maine's Marriage Bills |
| But here's the thing- manuevers like Perkins', Gallagher's and no doubt future others, will NOT go over well here.
Right after the Perkins/Heath shindig recently, volunteers for EQME and I spent an afternoon gathering signatures of folks around Augusta that support equal marriage rights.
Not only did we end up with over double our expected quota (plus more volunteers and donations), but we got some interesting feedback.
Like the elderly woman, married for 38 years, who literally ripped the clipboard from my hands to sign the cards. She told me how disgusted she was that :out-of-staters" (a native's VERY rudest and derisive way to refer to non-natives) were coming into Maine, rather than minding their own business and letting US MAINERS all discuss, debate and decide for ourselves.
She further added that she "would love to punch that Michael Heath fella right in the SNOOT!", shaking her fist to illustrate.
I love my fellow Mainers some days...but here's my prediction.
LD 1020 is going to pass. And get signed. And get protested. And go to referendum this fall- IF the opposition can get enough signatures of support.
They keep pulling stunts like this and they may not get that far... |
