Pam Spaulding wins an award and blasts the Obama admin. over the DOMA brief

Our friend, Pam Spaulding, was honored last night by the Women's Media Center for her work in the new media. Describing the event, where she was introduced by Gloria Steinem, Pam wrote:


Oh, and I eviscerated the Obama administration re: the heinous DOMA brief as well -- when you see the video, people responded to that. Everyone I spoke to in the room was PISSED about the arguments and hateful language in the brief -- White House, DNC, are you listening?

Good to know that people get how hateful this brief was. And, Pam didn't hold back. From her remarks:


Obviously, same-sex marriage is in the news, and I'm giving the Obama administration hell right now on my blog. The last week has been exciting, to say the least.

I think that a couple of bloggers and I have made it, alot of pressure on our core advocacy organizations like HRC, to do the right thing and come out strong in making it clear that the brief on DOMA was outrageous. ...........

1. Love Pam's blog and her courage to tell it like it is.

Pam's House Blend (always steamin') is one of my favorite blogs for GLBT news. Always steamin', indeed, and usually ahead of the curve compared to mainstream and hetero blogs.
