Will “Tammy Dishpan Dribble” Come Out Of The Closet?

Oregon bloggers have come to know “Tammy Dishpan Dribble.” She is the state’s Anita Bryant wannabe. Tammy claims to be a Christian homemaker but is quick to violate Scripture by casting stones (if not bullets) at gays and democrats. For Tammy hate is the family value.

But is she for real? Her daily rants turn her into such the stereotype of, well, the perfect Anita Bryant that some have begun to wonder if she isn’t a hoax. I wonder myself. Could she be a liberal in disguise trying to bait progressives into honing their arguments on the issues? Or is she just someone out for a laugh?

Maybe the truth is darker than that. Maybe she is for real.

The internet allows all kinds of people to make racists, sexist, and homophobic statements without offering their true identity. These spewers of hate take no responsibility for what they write and the effect it might have on others. In short, they are cowards.

So will Tammy come clean, come out of the closet, and take responsibility for her words? Is she for real?

We know how this story is going to end.

With a closet door closing just a little bit tighter.
