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.

Just a couple of housekeeping notes for regulars in the Blend coffeehouse.
First, a welcome to Daimeon Pilcher and Autumn Sandeen, the latest additions to the permanent guest barista roster! Daimeon's bio is in place, as well as Autumn's (along with their chicklets in the left-hand column). Both have been regulars in the coffeehouse for a good long while; it was time to get them behind the counter to officially serve up their special blend for customers -- and show trolls the door. Many thanks for coming aboard!

 The finalists have been named for the 2007 Weblog Awards, and voting begins today (Thursday) in the late evening, according to the web site.
It's an extremely compressed voting period this time around -- winners will be announced on Thursday, November 8 in Las Vegas at the BlogWorld & New Media Expo, in a ceremony held at the Hard Rock Hotel. I will actually be out there for the conference.
The 2007 Weblog Awards Best LGBT Blog finalists are...drumroll please:
