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.

who monitors yours Bevis ?? Just thought I would drop you a line,so the rest of your life is not wasted.
Desperate times call for desperate measures, I suppose. With the March 4 primaries in Texas and Ohio around the corner, the million-dollar-sucking consultants at Camp Clinton have put together an ad reminiscent in tone of Lyndon Johnson "Daisy" advertisement. Its theme -- warn voters that Senator Barack Obama's experience, in comparison to Senator Clinton's, means putting the entire country at risk. (ABC):
"It's 3:00am and your children are asleep," the voice over says. "There's a phone in the White House, and it's ringing. Something is happening in the world. Your vote will decide who answers that call."
"Whether someone knows the world's leaders, knows the military, someone tested and ready to lead. It's 3am and your children are safe and asleep. Who do you want answering the phone?"
The problem for Clinton here is that the selling point -- that she's "tested and ready" -- places in stark relief the incompetence of her campaign operation. Given the performance of the people she's chosen to run her campaign, it suggests that experience and being tested, either as a senator, First Lady (or any of her other prior political experience), doesn't necessarily make you a good leader, message conveyor or possess good judgment when it comes to crisis management.
I'm not saying that she doesn't have those skill sets, mind you, but nothing the public has seen so far about her decision making during this election cycle, and who she's chosen as her "experts" can give the average voter confidence about a Hillary presidency. The whole Jeckyll/Hyde persona shifts, likely a surfacing of inner tensions among the "experts" further erodes the image of a candidate in control.
I'm not sure this ad will do much to help on that front, but they are throwing anything against the wall at this point, hoping something will stick and resonate.
UPDATE: Another sad irony to add to the list of how Bill's presidency hangs over the downward spiral of this campaign. (h/t invisible_hand)...
"If one candidate is trying to scare you and the other one is try get you to think, if one candidate is appealing to your fears and the other one is appealing to your hopes, you better vote for the person who wants you to think and hope."
-- William J. Clinton, former President of the United States, October 25, 2004
UPDATE 2: Obama's response ad. Smart, pretty stinging one at that.
"It's 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep. But there's a phone ringing in the White House. Something's happening in the world. When that call gets answered, shouldn't the president be the one - the only one - who had judgment and courage to oppose the Iraq war from the start... Who understood the REAL threat to America was al-Qaeda, in Afghanistan, not Iraq. Who led the effort to secure loose nuclear weapons around the globe... In a dangerous world, it's judgment that matters. I'm Barack Obama and I approved this message.."
