isPermaLink="false">http://www.q-notes.com/?p=105#comment-129</guid> <description>I&#039;m a regular visitor to Pam&#039;s House Blend and overall I think Pam does a great job capturing the spirit of the LGBT community.  BUT, the quote used in this article is purly political.  Pam&#039;s remarks about Senator Clinton trying to take &quot;homo money and running&quot; not only shows how out-of-touch Pam is on Senator Clinton&#039;s policies &amp; positions, it&#039;s an extreme last-minute attempt by an Obama-supporter to sure votes.The truth is, Senator Clinton has been an avid supporter of LGBT people - in WORD and DEED.  Her record speaks for itself.  It&#039;s as clear as glass.Obama, on the other hand, has been caught fish-tailed in controversy surrounding his LGBT policies &amp; positions.  Need I remind you, Pam, that your choice for President represented our community by having one of the most radical mouth-pieces for the ex-gay movement at several campaign events.  Donny McClurkin used the platform to condemn gays &amp; lesbians and to further spread a message that is sickening and wrong.The controversy about the &quot;pansy&quot; remark first appeared on Q-Notes and was then trailed on the wider blogosphere.  Using media influence, Q-Notes added weight to words and used them as a political play that should have never been made.  Governor Easley did not use the words to condemn LGBT people.  He was using an anology to show how strong he felt Senator Clinton was as a leader.&lt;em&gt;Ed. Note: Reporting on Gov. Easley&#039;s &quot;pansy&quot; remark did not first appear on&lt;/em&gt; Q-Notes. &lt;em&gt;We aren&#039;t quite sure who first commented on the &quot;pansy&quot; remark as it relates to the LGBT community, although we saw it first on AmericaBLOG and Pam&#039;s House Blend. We appreciate open &lt;u&gt;and honest&lt;/u&gt; conversation in our comment threads.
