Blend-o-licious endorsements...



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.

Noose found at Secret Service training center

by: Pam Spaulding

Mon Apr 28, 2008 at 22:00:00 PM EDT


Your tax dollars at work for the protection and security of white privilege -- keeping those Negro agents in their place. Mind you, these are the folks charged with protecting the president, and currently, Barack Obama.
The U.S. Secret Service has placed a white agent on leave after an African American employee reported finding a noose hanging at the service's main training facility outside the nation's capital.

The service has acknowledged "an allegation of misconduct" at its J.J. Rowley Training Center in Beltsville, Md., and that an employee last week was placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of an investigation. The employee is a veteran agent with the service, according to fellow agents.

The noose was found by an African American officer in the uniform division of the service during the week of April 14, according to those familiar with the alleged incident. That division protects the White House and surrounding grounds. He reported the incident to his supervisor and it was sent up the chain of command. He declined to comment for this story.

...The alleged incident happened as U.S. Magistrate Judge Deborah A. Robinson is expected to decide next month whether to sanction the service for failing to turn over evidence in a long-running lawsuit alleging that the service created a racially hostile atmosphere that tolerated discrimination.

The lawsuit, filed on behalf of Atlanta native Reginald G. Moore, alleges that the Secret Service routinely discriminates against black agents seeking promotion in favor of white agents who scored lower on promotional exams.

Nearly 60 black agents have submitted sworn statements to the court in support of the lawsuit's allegations.

The Secret Service is (maybe) being fined by the court for hiding the evidence in a suit alleging that they routinely promote whites who score lower on the exam than black. The evidence is not likely to be exculpatory, else it would have been produced, so I'm reading the hiding of documents as an admission of guilt.

Let me say this another way: The folks in charge of keeping the President safe are putting race before competence.

And the lead story is the NOOSE?

Is this thing on!!??!?

Not that a noose in one's workplace is a good thing, mind you, but an admission form my employer that the color of my skin will affect my likelihood of getting ahead in that job is the far more powerful statement.

But wait, there's more!


Rev. Wright was right......
God would be justified in trading us humans in for a newer, better model...

All they have to do with the files is to redact home addresses and social security numbers, duh. The agent blamed for the noose is maliciously dim, either in thinking it up himself or letting him be set up as a distraction. But I blame the superiors more.  


Adminstrative Leave
When found guilty they should not be allowed back - it really is that simple - a noose?  Nope he/she might need to start thinking about a new line of work - that's inexcusable.

I'm sure white privilege is hoping that eventually they will just go ahead and kill Senator Obama.  He was suppose to be dead by now - they called the watch off at his stump speech in Texas.  

Who The CIA the very ones that killed Dr. Martin Luther King.

Letting folks go thru the detectors w/o frisking and checking them.  The local police was forced to and they didn't like it.  Yeah, Senator Obama was supposed to have seen his demise then.


Yesterday
Pam declared her support for Barack Obama and her reasons why. Here's mine:

I was a lifelong and proud Independent from when I was first eligible to vote in 1984 onward. Maine had the first Ind governor, Jim Longley, when I was a kid and his was one of my first political influences. I have never missed a vote, even in "off" seasons. I've supported both Rep and Dem candidates, never having any problem with not aligning myself to either party. Even though I helped the 2006 Maine DNC and candidates in Augusta...

But when I heard of the Secret Service walking away and not protecting Barack Obama last February, I was so shaken and angered that even though Maine had already held its caucuses, I went to our town office and finally declared myself a Democrat.

This story equally infuriates me. I know Pam's approach to be a correct path of calm, reason, erasure of ignorance, and open conversations. But how on Earth we eliminate this sort of threat, which is so damned pervasive and "protected" by even our government... ugh.

We need laws, where this is seen as an open threat and a crime, prosecutable and punishable as if it were a gun brought to a workplace. With higher penalties for Federal offenses like this.

Is this on the right track, Pam? Where the hell do we go with this?

it's like an iceberg
90% of the damn thing is below the surface. I don't have the answers, only the advice to be vigilant and discuss these matters out in the open, spread them around to those you know, and take personal steps to call out bigotry rather than walking away.

When bigotry is embedded in our institutions, it endangers us all.

Kind of OT
but when I first glanced at this post, I saw "J.K. Rowling Training Center" and wondered if Hogwarts had opened a US branch.
