"If you're gay, lesbian, or bisexual, would you sacrifice for your trans neighbors and siblings? If you're trans, would you sacrifice for your gay, lesbian, or bisexual neighbors and siblings? It's something worth knowing about yourself and those around you." --Autumn Sandeen, 4/19/2010, the night before GetEQUAL's DADT repeal protest at the White House

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.

"Yesterday we received a letter from a staff lawyer with NPR asserting that an advertisement by the Yes on 1 campaign violated NPR's copyright and demanded that we cease airing the ad. This is a ridiculous and frivolous complaint," wrote Marc Mutty, chairman of Stand for Marriage Maine, in a statement.
"There has been no copyright violation against NPR or anyone else. As is made clear in the attached letter from our legal counsel, Stand For Marriage Maine has the absolute right to use news clips aired on NPR in our advertisement. This is a protected exercise of the First Amendment of the US Constitution and is expressly contemplated as "fair use" in our nation's copyright laws."
Barry Bostram, from an office in Terre Haute IN, handling SFMM's lil problem. Hmm... sounds familiar...
A spokesperson for NPR said they had sent a cease-and-desist notice to Stand for Marriage Maine saying it did not give the group permission to use part of its program in the ad.
Dana Davis Rehm, senior vice president of marketing, communications and external relations for NPR said, "NPR very carefully analyzed the use that Stand for Marriage Maine and their public relations firm Schubert Flint has made of NPR's 2004 news story. We determined that it does not meet fair use standards, and that it constitutes copyright infringement.
They have exceeded fair use standards by co-opting NPR's content for virtually the entire length of their political ad. What we are seeking to do here is to protect NPR's valuable reputation as a trusted and unbiased source of news. We don't allow use of our content for advocacy or political purposes by any group or person."
