GSP.FAN - you can’t be serious. There are dozens and dozens of groups formed around lowering taxes and cutting government bureaucracy. ‘GOProud’ is specifically a homosexual group. That is what their membership is based on. Are you telling me there are normal people within their ranks and they were not formed as a group for active homosexuals?
GOProud also promotes a radical social agenda that is simply bad for the country, and is contrary to any conservative principles worth having.
If somebody wants limited government, individual liberty, etc. etc., well, there's always Freedom Works, the Club for Growth, or any number of legitimate conservative organisations. No need to shill for a bunch of social radicals who happen to also want lower taxes.
If a group called GOPedo supports every single part of the Conservative ideal, but just happen to be NAMBLA afficianados - are we supposed to welcome them with open arms? If a group called GOPolygamy wants to be recognized, should we just look the other way? What about GOPwifeswap? I mean wifeswapping is legal. So if a group forms around like-minded wifeswappers who think it is normal and healthy (and are even prideful about it) - should we welcome them into the Conservative movement too? Hello?
GOProud is a Trojan (no pun intended) Horse. Homosexuality is anti-thetical to Traditional Conservatism. The Judeo-Christian Sex Ethic is the bedrock foundation of Western Civilization. The so-called ‘Gay Liberation Movement’ is just another facet of the Marxian-Darwinian rebellion that is destroying the Neshama, the soul of America. Homosexual activism is at war with the Jewish Sex Ethic. It wants to kill it, exterminate it. Like Hitler, it hates the Torah of the Jews and the God who dared to tell puny, selfish confused little human beings how to live. Hold the line. Should you fail to do so, the nation will be destroyed.
Make treatment of AIDs illegal!!!
If gays want to vote Republican that is their choice, but there is no reason why the Republican Party should appeal to a homosexual advocacy group. Only progressives would want to invite an anti-traditional values group into the party to further alienate the pro-lifers, in the party, that embarrass them. To refer to a gay advocacy group as “conservative” demonstrates the word “conservative” has no meaning for you. Your so-called, “conservative” gays reacted to Ryan Sorba’s speech they same way liberals do to all speech they disagree with.
Individual liberty and the “gay” agenda are diametrically opposed.
They also support same sex marriage, not a conservative postion.
[GOProud promotes our traditional conservative agenda by influencing politics and policy at the federal level.]
Yeah, and the sexualy dysfunctional miscreants at the helm of Nazi Germany made the trains run on time too...
Go Proud don’t sound to traditional to me!!!!
If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn’t eat meat.
If GOProud is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.
If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life.
If GOProud is homosexual, he demands legislated respect and shouts down speakers at CPAC.
If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation.
GOProud wonders who is going to take care of him.
If a conservative doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels.
GOProud demand that those they don't like be shut down.
If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church.
A GOProud non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced. (Unless it's a foreign religion, of course!)
If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it.
GOProud demands that the rest of us pay for his.
If a conservative reads this, he'll forward it so his friends can have a good laugh.
GOProud will delete it because the nancy boy's "offended" ...
9 - REVITALIZING OUR COMMUNITIES - A package of urban related reforms; expanding historic tax preservation credits; support for school choice.
Do you understand what that means? Let me break it down:
A package of urban reforms: in other words they support what caused the real estate bubble. Fannie/Freddie/ACORN are entities that implement urban reforms. Any group that lists urban reform as one of the top ten federal legislative issues is a progressive group that supports stealing tax dollars in order to redistribute wealth.
Expanding historic tax preservation credits: I'll quote the federal government on what that means, It generates jobs and creates moderate and low-income housing in historic buildings. In other words, more wealth redistribution!!! This is straight out of the progressive play book.
I'm sorry, but they are NOT conservative. Conservatives do not believe in wealth redistribution. GOProud actively promotes wealth redistribution. It's groups like this that infiltrate the conservative movement and make it rot from the inside.
Call it GAYProud. Call it GAYPAC.
It doesn’t matter what you support. Your lifestyle is a PERVERSION, what part of that word don’t you understand? It’s wrong, is ungodly, it’s immoral. Those of us who believe in doing what’s RIGHT don’t want your support.
I’m glad I didn’t have to scroll down farther than #8 to find someone who could put a little ‘corrective perspective’ on this incident.
I’ll get back to this thread later.
These issues are going to be the DEATH of hardheaded, take no prisoners “Conservatives”; they are loser issues for them,always WILL be, and it’s as though they WANT it that way. What, is this the last refuge of family values, keeping homosexuals OUT of the Party??? Or just out of the self-celebrating “Conservative” side of it.
This is not the usual wishy-washy idea of extending the ‘big tent’ outwards to cover populations as diverse as gays, or pro-choicers. THIS IS INSTEAD A FORMERLY DISPARAGED GROUP EXTENDING THEIR BIG TENT TO THE CONSERVATIVES, and some of them like this Ryan dude, young and inexperienced purists that they are, don’t see it.
I woulda booed him too.
Either way,this exclusionary tendency is foolish, self-defeating, and pig-headed and makes REAL conservatives look as much like the narrow minded bigots as , say, John Kerry was when he JUST COULDN’T LEAVE DICK CHENEY’S DAUGHTER ALONE DURING THEIR CAMPAIGN, but HAD TO MAKE HER A POLITICAL ISSUE. Did GOProud demand their rights to proselytize among the rank and file GOP, and teach them the homosexual agenda? What was this Ryan fellow complaining about? If these were conservative gays to begin with, what is the big friggin’ issue? Don’t trust them? Have any of these people ever actually KNOWN a homosexual in any context. (I have, I was in theater all through the 70s)I hope this thread doesn’t die. This is a pet bugaboo of mine.
“Gay” is antithetical to “conservative”.
It is outrageous that any competent person who wants to serve in the military cannot. I was particularly disturbed when a number of gay Arabic language translators were kicked out when we had such a shortage of people to screen intercepts. Rather than “don’t ask, don’t tell” the practical standard should be “don’t ask, don’t flaunt”. And this should be for both gays and straights. In active duty people should be business-like and not flaunting/exploiting their attractiveness or desires (consider the number of rape cases occurring).
