Liberty Counsel: We Are SO Not Doing CPAC If GOProud Is There!

Matt Barber says that if the 2010 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) allows Log Cabin Republicans splinter group GOProud to remain as a co-sponsor, he will lead a boycott of the event by anti-gay groups. Oh NOES! Porno Pete breathlessly reports:

Folks, for years religious conservatives have been complaining about getting the shaft from CPAC, the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C. There is usually only a token panel or two dealing with “Culture War” social issues like abortion and homosexuality (and rarely one explicitly on fighting the “gay” agenda) – as organizers seek to appease the CPAC libertarians, some of whom support goals like homosexual “marriage” that are anathema to socially conservatives.

Now CPAC’s tenuous ”Big Tent” could collapse altogether as social conservatives led by Liberty Counsel’s Matt Barber threaten to launch a boycott of the conference (scheduled for Feb. 18-20, 2010) unless CPAC drops a homosexual activist group, GOProud, as a co-sponsor. Barber, my good friend, an AFTAH Board Member, and the Director of Cultural Affairs at Liberty Counsel, is leading the charge to keep the CPAC sponsorship list … conservative.

According to LaBarbera, Bam Bam already has a list of anti-groups ready to pull out. Hurray! Now we DO want GOProud to be there. Anything to breed infighting among the bigots.
