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.

Blood For Oil, Sen. McCain?

by: Autumn Sandeen

Fri May 02, 2008 at 20:45:00 PM EDT



Are we fighting in the middle east for what many of us have suspected for years? Are we really spilling blood for oil? Sen. McCain said as much today.

My friends, I will have an energy policy that we will be talking about, which will eliminate our dependence on oil from the Middle East that will -- that will then prevent us -- that will prevent us from having ever to send our young men and women into conflict again in the Middle East.
--Sen. John McCain, May 2, 2008.

Well, apparently he's claiming he misspoke,, or was misinterpreted somehow. The "clarification" by Sen. McCain given later today:

["Clarification" below the fold.]

Autumn Sandeen :: Blood For Oil, Sen. McCain?
The expected GOP nominee sought to clarify his comments later, after his campaign plane landed in Phoenix. He said he didn't mean the U.S. went to war in Iraq five years ago over oil.

"No, no, I was talking about that we had fought the Gulf War for several reasons," McCain told reporters.

One reason was Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait, he said. "But also we didn't want him to have control over the oil, and that part of the world is critical to us because of our dependency on foreign oil, and it's more important than any other part of the world," he said.

"If the word `again' was misconstrued, I want us to remove our dependency on foreign oil for national security reasons, and that's all I mean," McCain said.

"The Congressional Record is very clear: I said we went to war in Iraq because of weapons of mass destruction," he said.

McCain is a staunch supporter of the Iraq war, although he criticizes the early handling of it by the Bush administration.

I feel soooooo much better about the Iraq War. Four-thousand plus dead, thirty-thousand plus wounded, and an incredible cost estimate of three trillion dollars to pay for the wars of Iraq and Afghanistan -- and it was either for oil, or for those non-existent weapons of mass destruction. Super.

I can bet it wont be long before McSame,
  is on Hannity helping him spin out of this one.  I find it odd that the republicans have these slips of truth, than have to clairify what they really meant.  

If I make sense? it was quite by accident.

you do make sense.
And I do not think it is by accident! ... Talk about Freudian, you can't get much more honest than that.  Makes my stomach roil.... over all this blood spilled for oil.

It's the Hammer of JUSTICE,
It's the Bell of FREEDOM,
It's the Song about LOVE between,
my Brothers and my Sisters
...All over this Land.

To six different Democratic and Obama emails.  Can't wait to see the ad.

Sorry
this is how McCain and Crew tried to patch up and clarify his earlier statements.

It gets better (or worse, depending on your POV)
Is McCain tired, showing the onset of early Alzheimer's, or just so unused to being pressed that he can't focus and function clearly when he's questioned? Because what he said below sounds so confused I'm concerned about his health and state of mind (and why won't he release his medical records?).

He first claimed he was misspeaking, then that he actually meant the first Gulf War,

But then when specifically asked by an Associated Press reporter if, when he made the statement, he was "thinking about the first Gulf War," he said no.

"No, I was thinking about- it's not hard to- we will not," McCain stumbled. "By eliminating our dependency on foreign oil, we will not have to have our national security threatened by a cut off of that oil. Because we will be dependent, because we won't be dependent, we will no longer be dependent on foreign oil. That's what my remarks were."

Pity he didn't have
Lieberman with him to quietly correct and feed him his responses.
