The anti-child, anti-family folks at Protect Marriage Washington (Larry Stickney) and its non-cooperative competitor Faith & Freedom PAC (Gary Randall) have “released” a video. It has the catchy title “R-71: Lawmakers Encourage Christian Participation!” and features state senator Val Stevens and representative Matt Shea.
I’d post the video here, but apparently they don’t want this gem to go viral (because who would want a promotional video to have legs?). The video host gave me this message
Sorry. The creator of this video has not given you permission to embed it on this domain.
To view it, you’ll have to go to PMW’s home office or to a video hosting website that Gary linked to in a recent email (interestingly he hasn’t posted the video on any of his several websites.). Note that Larry and Gary are so much on the outs that Gary still refuses to link to any PMW web page, or even refer to the existence of “that other organization”.
I wonder who masterminded this brilliant video? Whoever it was plopped Stevens and Shea in a funeral parlor sitting room and gave Stevens whole agonizing minutes to haltingly read Larry Stickney’s debunked bwaking points from a note pad.
The video opens with a crotch shot of the gay divorcee Shea. Watch Shea’s eyes wander as Stevens plods through her reading assignment. I’ll warn you, the video is a real snoozer. Heads will nod in darkened sanctuaries. I recommend that clergy show it before communion if they use real wine.
Bonus track: Watch Larry Stickney admit that there isn’t enough non-dominionist church support to get this referendum on the ballot.Join Washington Families Standing Together in their fight to defeat Referendum 71 by clicking on the graphics below.

Waitaminute…A promotional video they DON’T want to promote?
This is the most convoluted campaign and thinking… either very coy or unbelieveably nuts.
Or both…
Yikessnoozer was kind. Reminds me of those 1960′s slide show/naration things they showed us in school “health class”. All they need is a pointer and a projector clicker.
Not surprised that Val Stevens & Matt Shea can sit there and spout 5 minutes of LIES.
And . .. when this is shown in churches, where’s the separation of church/state here?
So today, I call/write my State Senator & ask what her response is on this BS, and what kind of statement she has about it.
I think Larry believes in only singing to the choir. Problem is, when your choir consists of one warbly old soprano and two closeted tenors, you just can’t perform the big numbers.
Their intentis to provide this on DVD to be shown during church services with signature gatherers in the foyer & a “special tithe”.
and one other thing . . .I’m keeping my eye on these lying bigots to see when they’re up for election, and although neither is from my district I’ll be making a special effort to support their opponents.
LOL!Sounds like the last “hanger-ons”, after last call- just before the police get called to escort out of the bar…
Not that I have any personal experience, mind you!
SB 5688 on hold?I googled (and couldn’t find) more information on the wingnuts’ claim that this referendum 71 puts a hold on the bill that the Governer Gregoire has already signed until the people can vote on it. Anybody know anything about this?
it’s almost true.i think most bills don’t go into effect until 90 days or so after signing anyways, unless they have an “emergency clause” in them. so the simple filing of the referendum didn;t put anything on hold that wouldn’t have been waiting to go into effect anyways. the only time the law would be truly on hold due to the referendum being filed is if the haters get their signatures. in that event, the law would be put on hold starting july 25th (the signature filing deadline) until the vote in november.
i think i have this right – someone please correct me if i’m wrong.
