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.

Would You Give Larry Stickney Your Money?

by: Lurleen

Mon Mar 30, 2009 at 10:00:15 AM EDT


Larry Stickney is the director of the anti-LGBT Washington Values Alliance, and he's trolling for dollars.  The question is, after you read his resume and grade his recent homework, would you give him your money?

The only two campaigns he has managed, FAILED.  His resume states:

Larry also served as campaign manager during [John] Koster's 2000 Congressional bid...In 1999, he managed the Initiative 694 measure to ban partial-birth abortion.
Koster lost to the pro-LGBT Democrat Rick Larsen (D-WA02), who still holds the congressional seat almost 10 years later.  And Washington voters roundly rejected Larry's anti-choice initiative.  I'm really scratching my head - who puts failures on their resume?  And who gives money to people who put failures on their resume?

Maybe Larry's abysmal track record helps to explain his incomprehensible decision to waste $$$ airing t.v. ads aimed at, I kid you not, solidly pro-equality legislators.  Did he really think these bullying ads would change the votes of senators who have sponsored and/or voted for every DP bill to date?  By his own admission, "These ads have cost us a lot of money and we will need more if we want them to continue!"  Lord. Have. Mercy.  Either Larry is really as dim as his choice of resume highlights suggests, or he's got a buddy in the business he likes to float cash to.

In his recent fund raising letter, Larry says We are earning your confidence and trust.  I'm wondering just how he figures that.

Incidentally, several of the senators targeted by Larry's expensive t.v. ads responded via the press.  The articles also contain quotes from Gary & Larry, despite their contention that the press is ignoring them.

"The ads are a poor attempt at using fear to justify bigotry. It's a typical tactic, but it won't work," [Senator Steve Hobbs (D-Lake Stevens)], a sponsor of the bill, said Monday night.

"I did not fight for freedom in Iraq, only to come home and deny basic human rights to my fellow citizens. This legislation is not about the erosion of marriage. It's about equality and fairness," he said.

[Jean Berkey (D-Everett)] voted for the bill.

"I understand this is a contentious issue, but domestic partners should be treated the same as married couples. They deserve equal respect under the law. This bill acknowledges the growing recognition of the importance of equality for all," she said earlier Tuesday.

The Bellingham paper reported:
[Senator Dale] Brandland...simply wasn't a swing vote on the issue. And he was aware that the bill's sponsor, Sen. Ed Murray, D-Seattle, fully intended the legislation to be "everything but marriage," as the proposal had been dubbed.

"I guess from my perspective, I've come to the conclusion that people are born gay. I don't think this is something that they just pick up along the way," the former Whatcom County sheriff said. "Once I came up with that kind of conclusion, it wasn't difficult for me to understand that gay people are going to develop feelings for people of the same sex and will want to get into meaningful relationships.

"I thought it was inappropriate to deny them some of the basic rights that relationship entails."

THIS ANSWER MAY NOT SURPRISE YOU, EH?

Lurleen,

The man has that "middle aged hetero gut" and that is where his views emanate from.

My 63 year old body is fit, without a gut, so I do not use that flab to inform my " feelings " ----

Let me see, would I buy a used car from this guy, or would I believe that this guy has God's ear?

Ah..............no.


It has been proven...
That the middle-aged abdominal male fat pad is caused by a significant reduction in average testosterone level.

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.

Is it a suprise that the first post out of the gate is fat-bashing by a gay man?
Yeah, a little.  After seeng the accompanying pic, I expected it would be, at worst, the second or third post.  Because, of course, not being skinny is Larry Stickney's greatest evil.

Glad your body is fit, but your priorities could use a workout.

Do we give the bigots too much credit?
Honestly, as soon as they see "ban partial-birth abortion," don't most of these people immediately start speaking in tongues and feeling the rapture and entering their credit card numbers into the internet machine in a fit of holy reverie?

To be fair to the bigots, it's probably difficult to find a successful anti-gay, anti-sexist politico in a state as blue as Washington.  I know it's not quite as blue once you hit Snoqualmie Pass, but still ...

"There are two kinds of people in this world -- the kind who separate the world into two kinds of people, and those who don't."  -- Gloria Steinem


Gary weighs in.
Gary "The" Defender of Hetero-Monopoly Marriage" Randall just sent this out:
We are meeting today in Olympia to begin work on an initiative to overturn the Legislature's new homosexual legislation, should they pass it. That will include an effort to replace certain senators and representatives in upcoming elections who were unable to vote for marriage. Details forthcoming.
This is intreaguing, and I look forward to the forthcoming details.  What intreagues me is his use of the word "initiative".  You see, the ongoing debate has been whether the Professional Christians running The Washington Hate Coalition would decide that the personal short-term cash payoff for themselves was worth the risk of running but almost certainly losing a referendum or initiative campaign.  We all know that Larry Stickney is not afraid of losing his reputation by tilting at windmills...  

But when I read what Gary has written, I think he's leading us on with his use of the term "initiative".  He knows most people will read it to mean "a voter-driven repeal of a law via the ballot", and that will get his followers excited enough to SEND CASH.  But because he mentions unseating legislators, I think he's really using the term initiative in the sense of "an effort".  What they're really talking about doing today is what they were an utter failure at last November: increasing the density of theocrats in the legislature.  I betcha.  Can't wait for Gary's next breathless email confirming or denying (or just leading the flock on a leeetle bit more).

At least Don Quixote,
although senile, was an honorable and chivalrous old man.

"Would You Give Larry Stickney Your Money?"
No, but I'd give him a yellow apron and a chainsaw!

He's the perfect physique and look to play "Leatherface"!


Googleiscious
This diary is now the second listed when you Google "Larry Stickney".  If you decide to do a little googlebombing, don't forget to give some love to the guy who craves the limelight even more than Hutch, Gary Randall.
