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.

Not Good for Donor Morale

by: Lurleen

Fri May 29, 2009 at 22:30:00 PM EDT


Consider this: Oregonian Gary Randall and his Washington operative Larry Stickney know from the outset that they're destined to FAIL their referenDUMB effort to repeal the new WA domestic partnership law.  And their natural allies know too, because they've said so many times, quite embarrassingly and publicly.

But they put up a brave front and forge on, sneakily asking donors almost daily to donate to funds that aren't dedicated to the referendum effort.

Then Larry waits until the last possible hour of the last possible day to challenge the ballot language of his own referendum.

And then today, without explanation, he cancels his own challenge to the language of his own referendum.  And it gets better.  Guess who Larry's lawyer was for the ballot language challenge disaster?  Stephen Pidgeon, the guy who thinks men in smokey-windowed SUVs are after him.  Well, good to know that Larry is wasting donor funds giving billable work to this outlier from the Crumbling Coalition of Fanatical Fringe.  And all for the glory of God nothing.

If I were in support of the referendum, I'd seriously wonder if these gentlemen were leading me down the garden path.  The kindest word for it is INCOMPETENT.

I'm curious to see if this campaign continues beyond the weekend.

Lurleen :: Not Good for Donor Morale
I think it might be worth repeating The Words of Brother Pidgeon so that Washingtonians understand just how fringe the backers of this referendum are.
A right to be a right must have supernatural authority.
!
You introduce the concept of same-sex marriage or secular marriage, or any of the other rituals that have been formed by the state - and what you do is disestablish the godly order in favor of an order of death.
!
Government was created to kill.
!
Government is at war with the family, it always has been.  It sees the family, the unit of the family as a direct threat to its ultimate sovereignty.
!
...the perverted research of Alfred Kinsey, which was promoted in 1948, and given legs to pornography in 1953...
!
The health care that's going to be available for people who otherwise tax the Social Security system, is going to be a pair of cyanide pills.
!
Mr. Obama is the only Senator to have ever voted to allow children to have survived abortion to die on the table.
!
The federal government will outlaw homeschooling.  It will outlaw private curriculum in private schools, and is going to up the truancy laws to make sure that every child, if they have any opportunity for success in this country, they will go to a public institution.
!
You'll either participate in the Communist Party, or you will not be in college, you will not have the right to a job.
!
When I say that government is about death, you need to understand that this is their stated goals.
!
Homosexual rights are about population control.
!
I think there are going to be millions of people fleeing California once the starvation program begins down there.
!
I come here under the authority of Jesus Christ.
!
And this sanctuary of worship to the demons of Olympus [the state capitol] is stained with the blood of the casualties of this war, most of whom are children.
!
Same-sex marriage as a political policy is moral fascism.
!
The recognition of the "right" for same-sex couples to marry...is quickly followed by...criminal sanctions for those who are unwilling to renounce their relationship with god in order to embrace the deviant edicts of the state.
!
Same-sex divorce...is 8 times higher among homosexual men, and 300 times higher among homosexual women.
!
Employment Non-Discrimination Act...will be imposed on churches, who will be required to hire people who are of homosexual, bisexual, sexual transgendered, identity expression, in the churches, and if they don't they will lose their tax-exempt status.

thanks for keeping the pressue on
This is another twist that I didn't see coming.  It does seem odd and I hope it does impact their fundraising.

it makes me wonder
if Gary and Larry don't communicate too well.  i get the feeling that Larry & his friend Steve Pidgeon dreamed up some hair-brained notion to beat the "Seattle liberal red-zone homosexuals and their media allies" at their own game.  you see, i bet they were expecting our side to challenge the ballot language (when in reality we quite liked the language), so they decided to "preempt" us by challenging the language themselves, knowing all along they would withdraw the challenge.  in their warped minds, it would be really clever.  but Gary's inability to sputter anything coherent to the press after Larry's filing last week makes me think he was blindsided by the clever duo, and had to pull a parental maneuver on Larry.  and Larry has been UTTERLY silent, making me think he has been severely spanked by Gary and forbidden to whine to the press.

Values Action Radio
Larry has a radio broadcast every Friday afternoon at 2:30.  Now that he's canceled his challenge to the ballot language, he must be raring to get people out on the streets with petitions, right?  So you'd expect him to spend his full 30 minutes of broadcast time talking up the referendum, and exciting his volunteer base, right?  WRONG.  Here was the email teaser for today's radio show.
Friday's show is a rebroadcast of the informative March 27 show where Dr. Bruce Craswell and Larry discuss Washington State politics and the state of the conservative movement.
I heard that broadcast.  Most of the time was spent reminiscing over Mr. Craswell's late wife and their days of 20th century political glory.  They then spent the last few minutes talking about the pros and cons of running the then-unplanned referenDUMB.  Snoozefest, and not inspiring or informative to today's would-be petitiner or donor.

Grade:  FAIL.

Incompetent isn't the word - Fraud is - I hope the Attorney General is looking
into this - it seems that it's been pretty well documented that it was always about bringing in the bucks for the people running this thing.  

They were just more blatant about it than someone like Maggie Gallagher (we have to go back through tax returns to find she was pocketing almost 42% of the cash and she still hasn't responded to the requests for the IRS required info on NOM yet)

It would be nice to see one of these "hate-gay-for-pay" groups go down for being frauds - just because we know how they stir up the fears for their own personal wealth, too many in the general public don't.  They need the exposure and the ridicule that would bring.


So exactly what is being done to....
publicize all of this. It would seem to me that this is a great story for a newspaper ot pick up. If you have the documentation, then go for it. It owuld be a greta public relaitons coup, and quite possibly the death of the rferendum, if it could be shown that all of the money being collected is going elsehwere.

I can't make the papers print anything.
Dominic Holden at our weekly, The Stranger, has been doing a particularly good job exhibiting some of this information to a wider audience, but so far none of the dailies have chosen to jump in.

I have some actual complaints to the state cooking... ;)

Shall we believe it when we see it?
Here is the latest email from Gary explaining away Larry's debacle
Faith & Freedom PAC
May 30, 2009
Dear [removed],
As many of you have known, we had petitioned a judge to change and clarify some of the wording on Referendum 71. We felt it would be helpful going forward.

However, after a meeting in Olympia yesterday, we decided to withdraw our filing in favor of having a few more days to collect signatures. We became aware of several things that were in motion to further delay our signature gathering.

You may also know that the bill---SB 5688 is about 100 pages and the entire text must be included in each petition form. This requires the form to be several pages. We feel we have a good design which meets all the regulations and will begin printing by at least Monday--possibly Sunday evening. Petitions should be available by Tuesday.

I'll have more about their fraudulent use of "Faith & Freedom PAC" later.

Lurleen on Twitter

several things already in motion to further delay signature gathering?
Oh I wish Gary would quit being so coy!  I would like to know what those other sources of delay were.

And I suggest checking the petitions very carefully because proofreaders and printers sometimes make mistakes, especially when they're in a hurry.


[ Parent ]
Ummm, "several pages"?
One guess needed: he will run an improper petition (several pages vs. one single page as prescribed) and let people challenge him so he can't claim a loss for lack of signatures. No egg-on-face needed for Larry.

[ Parent ]
wouldn't put it past them.
but we'll find out soon enough.  they sent out an email this morning saying that petitions will be available for pick-up at specific locations in a few days.  i'm guessing that they're not offering to mail them because it would be too expensive to send the print-out of the legislation that must accompany each petition.  i'm guessing they will print out something banner-style, since the whole text of the law must be on a single sheet of paper and legible.  will be interesting to see how signature gatherers deploy this mobile billboard.  wind and rain could be a problem for them, not to mention finding enough space so they don't impede foot traffic.
