Right-Wing Groups Pull Out Of CPAC Because Gay Group Will Be There

[RamboLiberal]

The feuding on the right continues over the gay conservative group GOProud, with two more social conservative groups announcing that they won't attend the big Conservative Political Action Conference this February -- in part because the gay group is participating.

As the right-wing World Net Daily reports:

"We've been very involved in CPAC for over a decade and have managed a couple of popular sessions. However, we will no longer be involved with CPAC because of the organization's financial mismanagement and movement away from conservative principles," said Tom McClusky, senior vice president for FRC Action.

"CWA (Concerned Women for America) has decided not to participate in part because of GOProud," CWA President Penny Nance told WND. (Ed. note: Penny Nance's title is chief executive officer of CWA. Another individual, Wendy Wright, holds the title of president.)

A few other social conservative organizations -- including the National Organization for Marriage, which was at last year's conference -- have also withdrawn from the event.

9. What asses. I probably won't live long enough

to see an end to this nonsense,but it's a hell of a lot better than it used to be.

I'm in my 70's and things have definitely improved,but there is still a long way to go.

I attended the marriage of a gay friend and her signifant other in the fall of 2004. Their relationship lasted longer than my marriage did,and the wedding was attended by both large families. A wonderful day.

A short time later we were all saying that MA allowing gay marriage helped The Red Sox win their first World Series in over 80 years. Karma !

10. I see that the "out in the open" hate groups.....

...are pulling out of CPAC. They ought to consider setting something up with Sarah Palin and Joe Miller.

- I think they're free next year. All year.
