Following is an article about Ken Pangborn which ran in the St. Petersburg Times.  It offers the revelation that Ken was once a member of the National Organization for Women.  This may explain some of his actions on the internet, which seem to be aimed at attacking father's rights activists and disrupting legitimate father's rights discussions....

-A Holiday man says there may be some truth to the charges against
Thomas, but men have been scapegoats too long.

Kenneth Pangborn doesn't want Clarence Thomas sitting on the U.S.
Supreme Court.  The judge's position on civil rights is too
conservative, Pangborn says.

But that hasn't kept Pangborn from standing shoulder to shoulder with
Thomas in defense of sexual harassment charges.  In Pangborn's world
view, a higher principle is at stake: "Men's rights vs. the femagogs."

This is war, and Pangborn will fire off volleys for anyone who asks.
"The scapegoating of men is an insidious process that's been going on
for a long time, " he said Monday.  "It's like the  plot of Thelma and
Louise - woman, good: men, bad."

A Holiday resident, Pangborn is president of Men International which he characterized as a national coalition of 137 men's rights groups with 25,000 to 50,000 members.

In ordinary times, Pangborn might put out a newsletter, run a Wednesday night support group or help a father plot legal strategy in
a custody fight.

Now, with the nation absorbed in Professor Anita Hill's accusations against Thomas, Pangborn has temporarily taken on extra duties. In some venues, he's a spokesman. Pangborn, a 50-year-old salesman of air and water filters, has been interviewed recently by USA Today, Newsday, the Washington Post and the Washington Times.

"There may be a kernel of truth" to Hill's allegations, Pangborn said
Monday. "But then came embellishment, theatrics and management" by the
National Organization for Women (NOW) to kill the Thomas nomination,
he said, "What these people are asking is to have men convicted on
allegations alone.  Throw him in jail because I say so.  What this is
is PMS out of control."

Suggest that such a quote is intemperate, and Pangborn brings up women
who criticize the Persian Gulf War as raging testosterone. Pangborn
said he belonged to NOW in the late 1970's but quit when a "mean-
spirited faction" took over.  About the same time, he received
custody of his three children during a bitter divorce which court
records confirm.

Despite polls indicating that most Americans side with Thomas,
Pangborn thinks the Senate will vote him down today.

"You haven't begun to see the propaganda machine kick in yet," he
said.  "With Ellie-Smeal, Pat Ireland (of NOW) and (Rep.) Pat
Schroeder gearing up this 'men just don't get it' campaign, how many
Democratic men are going to vote (for Thomas)?  They will make it that
a vote for Thomas is a vote for sexual harassment.
