Pam's Voice

  • October 25, 2007 - 12:28pm

    Today The Big Con is proud to welcome one of the first citizens of the blogosphere and one of its most stalwart right-wing watchers: Pam Spaulding. Today she takes time out from guest-blogging for Glenn Greenwald on Salon to find a silver lining in the upsruge in organized homophobia in America: evidence their cause is in decline.
     —Rick Perlstein

    In an effort to gain passage of Barney Frank's Employment Non-Discrimination Act Of 2007 (ENDA), Rep. Pelosi has urged homo-transgender activists to bombard the offices of 50 Democrats who refuse to make cross-dressers, transsexuals, drag queens and she-males as federally-protected classes.
    Rev. Lou Sheldon, head of the Traditional Values Coalition

    "The "gay" activists won't leave us alone. They can't. To achieve their revolutionary, egalitarian goal of treating homosexuality the same as heterosexuality in our culture, they and their increasingly radical straight allies are forced to discredit and destroy a lot of good, Bible-based tradition — and turn the hearts of America's children against God's created purpose for sexuality."
    Peter LaBarbera, Americans for Truth Against Homosexuality

    "Mary Cheney's pregnancy poses problems not just for her child, but also for all Americans. Her action repudiates traditional values and sets an appalling example for young people at a time when father absence is the most pressing social problem facing the nation...Mary's pregnancy is an "in-your-face" action countering the Bush Administration's pro-family, pro-marriage and pro-life policies."
    — Concerned Women for America's Janice Crouse on Town Hall

    One has to wonder when these groups, filled with hate and an unnatural obsession with sex acts, will finally give up the ghost and stop peeping into the bedrooms of tax-paying, law-abiding citizens who simply want to acquire the basic civil rights that heterosexuals take for granted — marriage, the ability to adopt and foster children, the freedom to not worry about being fired if they place a picture of their same-sex partner on their desk.
