Wish we could say we're sorry
By Jeff Inglis

But we're not. Mike Heath is leaving the ~~Moral Majority~~ ~~Christian Coalition~~ ~~Christian Civic League~~ ~~Maine Family Policy Council~~ ~~Hatespeakers of South China~~ oh we can never get the name of that damn organization right. But after nearly 20 years at Maine's most conservative, backward-looking, intolerant "civic" organization, Heath has resigned

CCL Realizes No One Likes Them!
By Deirdre Fulton

It was with a smirk, and a bit of schadenfreude, that we read this email from Mike Hein today:
"Dear YES for Marriage Volunteers and Supporters,

It is with a heavy heart and reluctance that I inform you the YES for Marriage referendum effort has been canceled. The reasons are as simple as this: neither enough funds nor enough volunteer support to continue the effort

Discrimination League of Maine
By webteam

A note to my colleagues in other media outlets: We — that is, you — need to start calling Michael Heath what he is, and has always been: the venomous leader of a fringe hate group.

He is not the "executive director of the Christian Civic League of Maine," even if that's what it says on his business card (and I don't know whether it actually does or doesn't).

headline of the day award
By Deirdre Fulton

It's early, but I know this won't be topped.

The Headline of the Day Award goes to the Christian Civic League, which tells its readers: Collins and Michaud Out-Gay Allen and Strimling

In the piece, CCL Record writer Mike Hein takes issue with US Rep Mike Michaud's vote last week against the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) because it doesn't include protections for transgendered people.

Together at Last - PR's Dennis Bailey and uber-Christian Michael Heath
By webteam
You might not have believed it, and we didn't either when a friend pointed out an essay by Dennis Bailey on the Christian Civic League of Maine's Web site. We know politics makes strange bedfellows. But really? Dennis Bailey - Democratic political consultant, PR guy for Angus King when he was gov, speechwriter for Governor John Baldacci, general liberal guy with a good head for politics - and right-wing nut job Michael Heath, Maine's ultimate anti-tolerance guru?

UNHOLY MATRIMONY - Christian Civic League cites Phoenix in announcement?
By webteam
Perhaps hell is cooling down a bit. Not only has the Christian Civic League of Maine stopped hating homosexuals, but now the group is citing the Portland Phoenix as a reputable news source!

(We are very concerned, and our best quality-control agents are already investigating the personal and professional backgrounds of every staff member, every reader, and every person who walks or drives past a Phoenix box on the street.

STOP MAKING SENSE - Christian Civic League no longer fears gays!
By webteam
It's Memorial Day, and we're here at work, and in comes this e-mail from the fact-haters at the Christian Civic League of Maine, announcing that - and yes, make sure you're sitting down - "the Christian ministry has allowed [its] deep concerns over sexual morality to drop from its top priority." Which means, I guess, that the failure of their initiative to re-legalize discrimination against gays (defeated by the "No On 1" campaign in November 2006) might be sinking in.
