Breitbart's 'The Uninvited' Panel to Ramp Up Pressure on GOP Establishment - 1pm (CPAC today)
Breitbart News ^ | Mar. 16, 2013 | Tony Lee

Posted on 03/16/2013 8:37:22 AM PDT by AuntB

Breitbart News will host "The Uninvited" panel on Saturday at CPAC from 1 p.m to 3 p.m (National Harbor Room 4) and continue its tradition of leading conversations on issues the Republican establishment and the mainstream media refuse to address. These issues topics crony capitalism, illegal immigration, global jihad and radical Islam, the persecution of Christians across the globe, and the gutting of the American military.

These are not issues that only conservatives care about, but independents and Reagan Democrats as well. When Republicans speak to these Americans, they win majorities. When Republicans speak to Washington's elite, they get hammered.

Speakers will include Former Attorney General of the United States Michael Mukasey and Peter Schweizer, president of the nonpartisan Government Accountability Institute. Panelists will include Robert Spencer, Dan Goure, Nina Shea, Rosemary Jenks, Frank Gaffney, and Pamela Geller. And there will be an emphasis on audience participation and interaction.

Breitbart News CEO Larry Solov said, "Andrew Breitbart never shied away from tackling controversial issues" and "understood that people need vigorous and sustained discussion and debate to make their own informed decisions. It is in Andrew’s spirit that we are proud to host this event.”

"We will get as many people as possible to the microphone to ask their questions and engage our speakers," Bannon said.

"The Republican Party can either become one with its base, or it can try beating it off with a stick some more while waiting around for Meghan McCain to deliver the new hip conservative movement," he concludes.

Breitbart News's " The Uninvited" panel will seek to make the Republican Party become "one with its base."

"Greenfield sardonically writes that the Republican establishment's strategy for winning a majority in this country is to "nuke their own grassroots by raising money to attack deviant Tea Party candidates and protect true conservatives who support amnesty, tax shelters and tax hikes," even though the Tea Party "was responsible for the first Republican victories since 2004."

He then facetiously noted that the Republican elite will "add 11 million Democratic voters to the rolls through amnesty for illegal aliens as part of a brilliant plan to stop being a national party. And so long as Republicans come to Washington promising they'll change it only to be co-opted by the town's permanent political class, such panels will be necessary."

Time for us to take over. We need to stop being so polite.

I have been trying this lately.....they already think I am “right wing”, so it really doesn’t matter.

Instead of just stating facts and listening to their excuses, I now demand they show me proof, facts, as to what they are claiming.

Of course they can’t and do the “oh, I don’t want to fight now”. I tell them we are not fighting, we are discussing. I backed up my claims with facts and am only asking you to do the same.

Conversation usually ends there, lol.

Interesting story here about the exclusion of ALL anti amnesty speakers at CPAC.

[snip]In an interview, Krikorian [CIS] said he doesn’t know whether his panel was omitted from the program because of “incompetence or conspiracy.” Yet he’s pretty sure CPAC’s organizers, including Chairman Al Cardenas and Americans for Tax Reform President Grover Norquist, are using the event to press an “open borders” agenda.

“The elites are in favor of amnesty and unlimited immigration, and the rank-and-file are not,” Krikorian said. The lack of anti-immigration voices at CPAC “doesn’t tell us anything about conservative voters, but it does tell us about `Conservatives, Incorporated.’

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton, who is moderating today’s hard-to-find panel, closed out yesterday’s afternoon session with a brief speech in which he said: “The massive, instant amnesty being pushed by Obama and some Republicans is unworkable, unjust, undermines the rule of law, and will harm the public safety.”

The panel will show those youngsters that even near Washington, D.C., Breitbart News is not afraid to tackle controversial and challenging topics that conservatives, Tea Partiers, Reagan Democrats, and cloth-coat Jacksonian-Americans care about. And so long as Republicans come to Washington promising they'll change it only to be co-opted by the town's permanent political class, such panels will be necessary.

More on immigration reform & cpac...note how the media marks anyone trying to control illegal aliens as ‘opposing immigration’.
Anyone who can’t see that the powers at CPAC are more aligned with Obama/MSM than their conservative base, isn’t trying to see it.
The fix is IN.

CPAC discusses GOP immigration policy
“Regardless of policy outcomes, Republicans must change their rhetoric about immigration, said Whit Ayres, a GOP pollster who has worked for Sen. Marco Rubio.

“The idea that we can use harsh tones against the undocumented without affecting the way Americans see us is just delusional,” he said.

The immigration discussion drew a few heckles from the crowd and some harsh response on Twitter. Mark Krikorian, the head of the Center for Immigration Studies, which opposes immigration, said the panel is “flacking for the Democrats’ amnesty plan.’’
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2013/03/15/cpac-discusses-gop-immigration-policy/1989577/

The crowd at cpac is NOT impressed with this phony ‘immigration panel’

Speakers on an immigration-reform panel on Thursday morning pitched immigration as an issue that’s compatible with conservative principles, but they received a relatively quiet reception from the audience of activists gathered in the conference hall.

“We are losing the battle against secular socialism at the moment … we need more allies” said GOP pollster Whit Ayres. He also added that it would be a “good idea” for Republicans to aggressively pursue hard-working and religious Hispanic voters in order to rebuild a winning coalition.

But even that notion encountered some resistance. One heckler shouted “legally!” in response to Ayres’ pitch. Later, an audience member shouted out “politically correct!” when Korn said that Republicans should use language that’s less “harsh” when speaking about the issue of immigration.

“So now the conservative base that stopped amnesty is demonized at #cpac2013,” tweeted Mark Krikorian, executive director of the immigration restrictionist group Center for Immigration Studies.

Andrew Breitbart ...”understood that people need vigorous and sustained discussion and debate to make their own informed decisions.
________________________________________

You cannot properly make up your mind about something if you dont know all there is to know on the subjct...

If people really knew and understood that the illegal aliens dont trump immigration but lawlessness against America, would they be so quick to jump on the wagon claiming a need for “comprehensive immigeation reform” whatever that means and that we are “anti-immigration” ???

If they truly knew and understood that the being in the womb is a living (breathing, yes) human baby with a beating heart, would they be so quick to kill her ???

If they truly knew and understood that God is not mocked, would they continue to spit in His face with their demand for secular humanism ???

If they truly knew and understood that Conservatism is not represented in the CPAC panels this year, would they repent and change their agenda next year ???

Wheres the HA HA fellow ???

Crony Capitalism should be a big winning issue for the Right. Especially if it is described as “Corporate Welfare.”

Questions I'd ask if I were there:

Why are we paying people simply for existing?

Why are we paying never-married women to have babies?

Why are we taxing intact families to subsidize bastardy?

Interesting discussion of where we stand vis-a-vis the GOP establishment. As if we weren't already aware of that! Thanks for the ping, AuntB.

Why are we paying people simply for existing?

We're paying people to cast votes for the welfare state.

Why are we paying never-married women to have babies?

We're buying a never-ending stream of votes for Democrat socialist politicians.

Why are we taxing intact families to subsidize bastardy?

We're taking money from self-sufficient people who can't be counted on to vote "the right way" to buy the votes of people who can.

RE :”Interesting story here about the exclusion of ALL anti amnesty speakers at CPAC”

Except Trump as you pointed out earlier.
So was Trump the only one there to talk about immigration either way?

If so that is suspicious because its such a hot topic with the GOP today.

A number in the GOP on TV are claiming that Romney's position on immigration turned Asians off and is the reason why Republicans couldn't even get Asian votes last year,

Here on the East Coast we have seen a massive near overwhelming legal immigration by Koreans the past say 15 years. (many seem to be Christians too with all the new Korean Presp Churches.)

I have neither confirmation nor affirmation that this claim is correct but I did figure out long ago that such increased high rates of legal immigration was going to cause trouble.

“RE :”Interesting story here about the exclusion of ALL anti amnesty speakers at CPAC”

The speakers don’t submit speeches to CPAC before they’re given. I’m sure they didn’t expect Trump to make the speech he did. I don’t recall ever hearing him talk about immigration. Ann Coulter pretty much said the same thing as he did and that she would not vote for Christy because of it.

The unsanctioned panel with Geller, SPencer, had some immigration people..anti amnesty on it.

My immigration organization has participated in CPAC for more than five years until this year. I sat on the committee that determined the theme of CPAC and the composition of the CPAC sponsored panels. CPAC has always been hostile to those of us against amnesty and reducing legal immigration. Grover Norquist exercises inordinate influence over CPAC. Cardenas is even worse than Keene when it comes to immigration. He is a Bushite bent on getting Jeb Bush the nomination in 2016.

Ann Coulter was truly amazing today on amnesty. She at least gets it.

Great post.

IMHO,we are on the right path here in Florida.
We have made great strides in education demanding competency and stopping the meteoric rise in college tuition, have reversed a 3.7 billion dollar budget deficit into a billion dollar surplus and are doing well in other areas of the state as well.

We have a businessman Governor who chose to help the state rather than retire and sit under a palm tree.He's done a great job for the state,IMHO,and I told him as much last Thursday night.

Wow, good for FL, way to go!

I’m still a tad bit pi$$y about what they did to Lt. Col. Allen West.

I keep up with him on FB....he’s very busy!
