CPAC has been a big event for right wing Republicans.
“The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), pronounced /ˈsiːpæk/ SEE-pak), is an annual political conference attended by conservative activists and elected officials from across the United States. It is the largest annual gathering of conservatives.
CPAC is hosted by the American Conservative Union Foundation (ACUF), a 501(c)3 charity. More than 100 other organizations contribute in various ways. Human Events, the Young America's Foundation, and the National Rifle Association have been three of the most prominent cosponsors in recent years. CPAC has a full time staff of two people, conference director Lisa De Pasquale and an assistant…” Wikipedia
I have watched a couple of their CPAC conferences on CSpan. CPAC is one hate speech after another. If you want to be popular at the conference you need to pour out the lies and the hate.
At the last CPAC conference they had a gay Republican group. I know.. I was thinking the same thing… Gay Republicans? What next black Republicans?
Turns out the real red, white and blue non fags at the conference were not happy to have a gay group at their event.
This year conservative groups are abandoning CPAC because of the gay conservative group. See TPM for the story.
As I have said in the past and mostly about the tea bag party these people are going to fight with each other and attack each other. When you are filled with hate you can not turn it on and off.
How many people are gay in the United States?
The Republican are just fighting a losing battle. Some people say that 1 in 10 Americans is gay. Others say no it is 1 in 20 but no matter which number you pick that is lot of gay Americans.
Now those numbers are spread all across the United States. They are not all in CA or in Hollywood. They are in the Republican party. They are in the churches. They have been serving in the military.
The conservatives like to attack Democrats and call them Communists, gays, liberals and every other bad thing they come up from their little sick brains. But using the gay tag is just a real loser for the GOP. The GOP has as many gays in their ranks as the Democrats and I often think the GOP has more. They need to live with it and start being honest.
