We think it's pretty tacky when people use our comments to promote their own work, but not when it's Pam Spaulding. She's just a doll. Just look at this picture of her and John Amaechi. Precious!

The shot got snapped at the National Black Justice Coalition's Black Church Summit where Amaechi took on the church's homophobic attitude, setting himself up as the great gay messiah:

I'm going to be a role model of substance, I'm going to stand up and I'm going to address the issues that I see as divisive…bridge the divide between the black community and the gay community and I'm going to talk about those issues at every opportunity I get. And I'm going to talk about real dangers…The black churches where people with powerful voices spill forth rhetoric like rotten fruit from their mouths, and I'm going to challenge those people.

Spaulding also notes that Amaechi told her he reads her blog daily. Lucky bitch. Amaechi, if you're reading this, we'd really appreciate a little note to know that we're not totally bonkers when we say we can feel you undressing us with your eyes. Also, we must warn you: undressing us with your eyes has been known to cause hysterical blindness.

By now you've heard about the John Edwards blog scandal. You know, the one in which he caved to Catholic conservative pressure and fired two bloggers who had been called "anti-Catholic vulgar trash-talking bigots" for comments they made before working for the Edwards campaign.

But, there's another, gayer blog scandal in which you may have an interest…

As reported on Pam’s House Blend . . . Always Steamin’, one Jeffrey Bedford is ruing the day he didn’t read the fine print. He signed on the dotted line for ABC’s Wife Swap show; the contract stated that the reality program could give him either a woman or a man as a replacement wife.

When ABC sent Jeffrey a gay man as his new wife, he protested like a shrew with a dusty vagina. The producers told him words to the effect of tough titties. On the night of a bible studies group meeting in Jeffrey’s home, the gay guy invited a group of his homeboys to the session; word is they criticized the interior decoration.

Jeffrey is suing for $10 million. He claims he was caused mental and physical illness by having his swap partner be a phallus-fondling faggot. The Queerty judge has ruled against him; she who lives by the swap, sucks by the swap.
