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.

Biden challenges Palin to come out of hiding, Troopergate scandal gains steam

by: Pam Spaulding

Sun Sep 07, 2008 at 13:32:47 PM EDT


Sarah...Sarah...no time is a good time for goodbyes...

Obama veep Joe Biden asks the simple question -- where is Palin? He welcomes the opportunity to spar with her on the issues as she remains holed up in Alaska cramming for her midterm being tutored on McCain's policy positions and boning up on foreign policy, still unscheduled for any major press interviews or TV appearances to take questions.

"She's a smart, tough politician," Biden told Tom Brokaw in a "Meet the Press" interview live from Wilmington, Del. "So I think she's going to be formidable. Eventually, she's going to have to sit in front of you like I'm doing and have done. Eventually, she's going to have to answer questions and not be sequestered. Eventually, she's going to have to answer on the record."

The McCain campaign says Palin will eventually do interviews, but none are scheduled.

Biden also put the cards on the table about abortion rights --  something I'm sure the press is ready to question Palin about. He's a devout Catholic, but is clear that his personal religious beliefs have no place in determining public policy.
"For me, as a Roman Catholic, I'm prepared to accept the teachings of my church," Biden told [Tom] Brokaw. "I'm prepared, as a matter of faith, to accept that life begins at the moment of conception.

"But that is my judgment. For me to impose that judgment on everyone else, who is equally - and maybe even more - devout than I am, seems to me is inappropriate in a pluralistic society."

...I have voted against curtailing the right - criminalizing abortion...I have voted against telling everyone else in the country that they have to accept my religiously based view that it's a moment of conception."

As Troopergate explodes, Palin's possible abuse of power is coming into focus as well as McCain's poor judgment in vetting her. And now the Straight Talk McCain campaign is doing its best to cover up/delay the investigation.

How is Palin going to respond to this as the facts emerge. Take a look at this in-depth report by ABC News' Brian Ross that includes taped calls that are quite damning against Palin.

For more, surf over to FDL to read emptywheel's breakdown of this, "Rather than Vetting Palin, McCain Will Orchestrate a Cover-Up of Her Abuse of Power."

but you have to understand
if we don't play by republican rules we have to accept the fact they have no choice other than to take their ball home

Here's a comment that I got today...
Palin will be the trump card? that hand it to McCain on a silver platter. Palin is GOD's CHOSEN ONE because GOD HERSELF see to it that a woman will become VP and later President long before an African American becomes president. Palin will fulfill GOD's word and will because GOD herself said so.

McCain will unfortunately croak and Palin will inevitably be THE 1st woman president. Even Hillary will not be able to win against Palin in 2012. GOD will see to it that it happens.

Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo!

When you look for the bad in mankind, expecting to find it, you surely will.

What the deuce is going on in Alaska?
Financial privateering on public funds, huge federal hand-outs while kids programmes get cut in the continental 48, political terror to the point that people are afraid to speak for attribution, helicoptor gunships seeking gubenatorially paid wolf kill bounties, book banning attempts, a governor sending best wishes to a group of traitorous secessionists and sitting through a polemic on why Israel deserves to be terrorised, unswayed oil industry influence---what has been happening up there whilst no one was looking?

And McCain holds up the Nurse Ratchet of this Right Wing Lunatic Asylum as qualified for the presidency?
Qualified for what presidency?
Perhaps she is qualified for the presidency of Putin's Russia or a secularised Iran, but certainly not the largest secular republic in the world.

In the first month of her Apocalypse Now Wolf Programme:
AERIAL HUNTERS IN ALASKA KILL 91 WOLVES

91 wolves have been shot dead under Alaska's new aerial gunning program in
the last month. Your help is urgently needed: the plan is to kill 80% of the
wolves in an 8,000 square mile area of Alaska.

Please help stop this barbaric practice by supporting Defenders of
Wildlife's wolf protection programs! Help now:  
http://www.care2.com/go/z/12159

Aerial hunters gun the wolves down from the air, or chase them to exhaustion
in the deep snow,  then land and shoot them point-blank. Under the pretense
of boosting moose populations for hunters, aerial hunters can even kill
pregnant females and wolf pups. Numerous scientific studies show that wolves
are actually beneficial to the overall health of natural ecosystems, and
keep Alaska's moose and caribou populations healthy and strong.

Wolves, much like our family dogs, are pack animals with close bonds and
family ties. But right now, they really need YOUR help.

Presidency
Frankly, I'd feel more comfortable if she were running for the presidency of the NRA rather than the Vice Presidency of the USA.

Palin said she has scheduled an ABC interview (1 hr ago)
hey Sarah, as Nixon and Martha Stewart learned the hard way...the COVER UP is where they catch you LYING.

This hOC-key Muthah is a vindictive cow with anger management issues, she will Train WRECK McCain within weeks. Palin the VP candidate made for TABLOIDS.
the First DUDE ain't wired to tight NEITHER, and reports that he ran a shadow governorship with him copied on all emails needs investigations too.

Glenn Greenwald's prophesy yesterday
Was that Palin would, after being dramatically hidden from the press, deign to do a softball interview; after all the drama, this softball interview will be incredibly heavily-watched, and after each of those softballs are hit out of the park it will be a huge boost for the McCain campaign, just like how last thursday the press treated it as Palin having "proven herself" because she was successfully able to read a speech written for Mitt Romney off of a teleprompter.

The left needs to stop trying to portray Sarah Palin as if she were somehow stupid or a "barbie", and start focusing instead on pointing out that she's horribly unfit-- based on her problematic record, her extremist ideology and her history of apparent ethical lapses-- to serve in a Presidential administration.


[ Parent ]
VP Debate
They should probably frisk her for earpiece receivers before the VP debate.  I wouldn't put it past McCain's people to do everything possible (including cheating) to keep her from making a fool of herself or him.

[ Parent ]
Network news channels just start airing exposes of Palin and offer her a chance to respond
This will call her out as either stupid or cowardly or BOTH.
Good for ABC beginning this process.

"FOX NEWS" the HAG

run her anti semetic preacher tapes 24/7 like they did Jerimiah Wright.

funny as sh*t maureen dowd column on Palin
here's a portion
"Unable to stop the onslaught of wild soap opera storylines erupting from the Palin family and the Alaska wilderness, McCain campaign adviser Steve Schmidt offered caterwauling reporters a new mantra: "Life happens."

Indeed, it does. Only four days into her reign as John McCain's "soul mate," or "Trophy Vice," as some bloggers are calling her, on the ticket known as "Maverick Squared," Palin, the governor of Alaska, has already accrued two gates (Troopergate and Broken-watergate), a lawyer (for Troopergate), a future son-in-law named Levi (a high school ice hockey player, described by New York magazine as "sex on skates"), and a National Enquirer headline about the "Teen Prego Crisis" with 17-year-old daughter Bristol.

It seems like a long time since Vice President Dan Quayle denounced Murphy Brown for having a baby out of wedlock, bemoaning a "poverty of values." It also seems like a long time - and another McCain ago - that Republicans supporting W. smeared the old John McCain by spreading rumors that he had fathered an illegitimate black child.

This week, the anti-abortion forces celebrated the news of Bristol's pregnancy, using it as further proof that their beloved Governor Palin - who will no more support sex education than polar bears - was committed to the cause."

Palin's church ex-gay bat sh*t crazies
ANCHORAGE - Gov. Sarah Palin's church is promoting a conference that promises to convert gays into heterosexuals through the power of prayer.

"You'll be encouraged by the power of God's love and His desire to transform the lives of those impacted by homosexuality," according to the insert in the bulletin of the Wasilla Bible Church, where Palin has worshipped for about six years.

Palin's conservative Christian views have energized that part of the GOP electorate, which was lukewarm to John McCain's candidacy before he named her as his vice presidential choice. She is staunchly anti-abortion, even in cases of rape and incest, and opposes gay marriage and spousal rights for gay couples.

Focus on the Family, a national Christian fundamentalist organization, is conducting the "Love Won Out" Conference in Anchorage, about 30 miles from Wasilla.

Andrew Sullivan chastises the LCR about endorsing Palin
If Log Cabin is endorsing a candidate who is a supporter of the pray-the-gay-away movement, they need to reassess. And those many gay men who loved Hillary Clinton surely cannot back a candidate who favors the reparative therapy movement. I'd say that's non-negotiable. Of course, they could always try to ask Palin what her position is on this - but no one is allowed near her except Schlafly and AIPAC, it seems.

Colorado Springs
I noticed they had to make a pilgrimage to evangelical Mecca and greet Sarah's worshipers.  I didn't hear whether they were granted a private audience with Grand Ayatollah Dobson or not, but I'm sure they made it a point to kneel on prayer rugs and pray while facing the Focus on the Fascist compound.

US Geography's not my strong point but...
As an Australian, my knowledge of US geography is not as good as it should be. But I've looked at all the maps I can find of Alaska, and if Sarah Palin's hiding up there, I can't see where.

Here's her schedule:

Saturday, September 6, 2008 Colorado and New Mexico
10:00am Media Interview
10:30am Satellite into AARP Convention;
11:30am Media Interview
12:30pm MT "The Road to Victory Rally", Colorado Springs, CO
1:45pm MT Depart Colorado
2:50pm MT Arrive NM
3:30pm MT Media Interviews
7:00pm MT "The Road to Victory Rally", Albuquerque Convention Center

I always thought that Colorado and New Mexico were states, not places in Alaska. Unless she should have turned left at Albuquerque.

There's lots of things Palin can be validly criticised for, and I'd hoped to see more of that. But publishing stuff that's been made up does PHB's reputation no good. Posting obvious and easily checked falsehoods about her whereabouts, lies made up to make her look bad, casts doubt on the rest of the content. It will be seen as mere partisan propaganda, and that means any valid criticisms will be lost in the noise.

We're not MSM. We should correct things when we get them wrong, and quickly too.

There is no situation so complex it can't get even worse
