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.

OMG. Bible Belt Blogger took a look at Surgeon General nominee Dr. James Holsinger's infamous 1991 anti-gay paper, "Pathophysiology of Male Homosexuality," (PDF) and it will be one swinging confirmation hearing when a Senator reads this passage aloud when inquiring about Holsinger's views on what he calls the dangers of "anal eroticism." This was prepared for the Committee to Study Homosexuality of the United Methodist Church.Gay sex, he warned, can lead to "lacerations, perforations and deaths...The anatomic and physiologic facts of alimentation and reproduction simply do not change based on any cultural setting. In fact, the logical complementarity of the human sexes has been so recognized in our culture that it has entered our vocabulary in the form of naming various pipe fittings either the male fitting or the female fitting depending upon which one interlocks within the other. When the complementarity of the sexes is breached, injuries and diseases may occur as noted above." Hmmm. The tired "parts fitting" argument again. I think any emergency room doctor has probably seen a ton of straight folks who put items in various orifices for sexual pleasure that went terribly wrong, yet Holsinger pontificates that "anal eroticism" is almost a strictly homosexual act.
How about this nugget of confusion?

| Pam Spaulding :: Bush's Surgeon General nom: gay sex is hazardous to your health |
| Holsinger, who endorses ex-gay therapy ("We see that as an issue not of orientation but a lifestyle," Calhoun said. "We have people who seek to walk out of that lifestyle."), has views far outside the mainstream.
From Truth Wins Out: A new Gallup poll shows that Holsinger is at odds with the majority of Americans. Accoring to the poll, 42 percent of Americans believe that homosexuality is innate, compared to 13 percent in 1977. And the percentage of Americans who believe homosexuality is due to factors such as upbringing and environment declined from 56 percent in 1977 to only 35 percent today. Things have reversed so completely, that even the Southern Baptist Convention?s Albert Mohler recently suggested on his website that there is the possibility of a biological basis for homosexuality.
Last week, the American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA) issued its first statement opposing "conversion therapy." According to the new policy:
"The American Academy of Physician Assistants opposes any psychiatric treatment directed specifically at changing sexual orientation, such as 'conversion' or 'reparative' therapy which is based upon the assumption that homosexuality per se is a mental disorder or based upon the a priori assumption that the patient should change his/her sexual orientation." As HRC's Joe Solmonese noted in the organization's condemnation of this nominee, "Dr. Holsinger has a record that is unworthy of America's doctor. His writings suggest a scientific view rooted in anti-gay beliefs that are incompatible with the job of serving the medical health of all Americans. It is essential that America's top doctor value sound science over anti-gay ideology."Dr. Holsinger is the current president of the United Methodist Judicial Council, and in 2004, he opposed a decision to allow out lesbian Rev. Karen Dammann to continue serving as a minister. Soulforce Executive Director Jeff Lutes, a licensed psychotherapist in private practice who has treated victims of ex-gay ministries and reparative therapy said: "America doesn't need a Surgeon General who supports 'reparative therapy' and anti-gay dogma masquerading as science. If Holsinger bars gays and lesbians from his own church, how will he treat them as the nation's chief physician? What America needs now is some 'reparative theology'--a force of fair-minded people of faith who will take an unwavering stand against religion gone bad and choose instead to welcome and affirm gay and lesbian people into full citizenship." Read more on Holsinger from Jim Burroway at Box Turtle Bulletin.
