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.

(Many thanks for this thumbnail on Gov. Sarah Palin's record on LGBT issues by Victor Maldonado, formerly of SLDN. She's right in line with McCain. Here's her Wikipedia entry. Is this the ticket the LCRs are ready to endorse? What must Elaine Donnelly think - she doesn't want women in the military. Palin would command the military if McCain kicked it. - promoted by Pam Spaulding)
In an August 2006 the Anchorage Daily News reported on the social policy positions of the candidates then running for governor, including GOP Vice-Presidential nominee Sarah Palin, Of particular interest are Palin's positions on gay marriage and state benefits for same-sex partners. |
| Victor Maldonado :: Palin? |
According to reporter Kyle Hogkins, Palin has said "she's not out to judge anyone and has good friends who are gay." However Palin supported a 1998 state ballot initiative writing into the Alaskan constitution a ban on same-sex marriage. The ballot initiative passed, making Alaska one of the first states in the Union to limit the access of same-sex couples to legal recognition of their relationships.
In October 2005, the Alaska State Supreme Court ruled as unconstitutional the denial of benefits to the same-sex partners of public employees. While Palin complied with a state Supreme Court order and, as governor signed a bill providing benefits to same-sex partners of public employees into law, she reportedly supported a ballot initiative that would have forced the Alaskan government to deny benefits to same-sex couples.
Even setting aside her abysmal regord on LGBT issues, Palin is an unfortunate choice for the Republicans in a number of ways: she takes the issue of experience out of the GOP quiver; she punctuates McCain's advanced age (he turned 72 today); she raises serious questons about McCain's judgement in thinking a small town mayor and first term governor is ready to be one hearbeat away from the presidency. But most seriously, Palin opens up the campaign to the issue of ethics, and that is one conversation the Republicans should avoid.
