So this is what it has come to? Self described Conservatives are now quoting homosexual militant Harvey Milk? There is something drastically wrong with this push by the homosexual activists to claim they are an integral part of Conservative politics. They are pulling one of the most blatant spin jobs in history. Why can't they just support Conservative issues without constantly leading with their bedroom preference? In my opinion, something very devious is going on here.

I usually respect Andrew Breitbart - but I don’t understand why he is pushing this stuff on his site. Conservatism has to do with the integrity and character of the whole person, not just some outer, surface facade. Scratch the surface of any homosexual activist and what you get is exactly what this Bruce Carroll guy is arguing.

If they’re the future of conservatism, maybe I’m not a “conservative” anymore...

They are basically libertarians, and that’s not the same as conservatives.

Supposedly, conservatism got punked. Well shoot, anybody can open up a forum and call it conservative and let screaming liberals right in the door.

Like Mark Twain is reported to have said, “The report of my demise has been greatly exaggerated.”

The explanation is clear, and has been for some time:

2 Thessalonians 2:11 (New International Version)

“For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie”

To say that the conservative movement has embraced homosexuality due to the boos of the crowd makes as much sense as saying it has endorsed Ron Paul because he won the straw poll.

Both events are meaningless, both are due to the hall being filled with young energetic Paul bots.

Keep the Ron Paul kooks out, keep homosexual activists out, and the "crowd" response would have been cheers not jeers.

A tipping off point is more like it. Is Breitbart flaking off like a Smerconish or a Charles Johnson?

Anyone who thinks CPAC represented conservatism is out of their mind.

They did the same thing to the Catholic Church. They infiltrated as priests, abused young boys, and bankrupted many Dioceses. (I am not absolving the Church since they should have done something once they knew). I believe they were called the Pink Mafia and came out of Georgetown University.

You are correct is that the Conservative movement can only succeed if it only includes those people that are morally pure.

Therefore, conservatives should banish those who are gay, those who have had abortions, those who have ever used illegal drugs, those who have had premarital sex and those who have torn those annoying tags off of their pillows.

I say, ignore the gays and forge on with getting rid of the commies aka democrats.

Remember, our party should not be about catering to any group, but about conservative values. That is why we need a platform that we agree on. That platform does not cater to any special interest.

This is what happens when a party tries to split people up and cater to their whims.

Means losing.

CPAC wants a “big tent.” Well, they keep forgetting that when the tent includes and embraces Sodomites, social conservatives will leave.

Its a generational thing. The majority of folks 25 and under are pro-gay rights and pro-gay marriage. The last survey I showed even showed smaller, though still significant support, among self-described “Christians.”

And they shouted down an anti-gay bigot.

So many things wrong with this sentence and it's context I have no idea where to begin so I'll outline my thoughts:

What in the world have we let happen in this country....

...an anti-gay bigot.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The article warrants a barf alert for that phrase alone. The left is now using "bigot" with respect to homosexuality. Another perversion (pun intended) of the language by the left.

Kind of like how leftists say "pro-choice" when they mean "pro-abortion."

“Gay people, we will not win our rights by staying silently in our closets… We are coming out”

I have sex with women. I just know that everyone was dying to know that.

When you realize that the Islamofascist are attempting a takeover with the MIC, it makes sense. Muslims hate Homosexuals and even allow the killing of such.
Where will they go...Repubs ofcourse. Only sane place in American politics.

The writer is a Log Cabin Republican, which is to say a professional fag. So it’s not surprising that he is cheering them on. Here’s his profile from Big Journalism:


Bruce Carroll
Bruce M. Carroll Jr. has been involved in Republican politics since he was 14-years-old, growing in Chester County, Pennsylvania. He credits his Mom for becoming involved in politics and government as she worked for US Congressman Robert S. Walker (ret.) for 20 years.

In addition to active involvement in numerous Pennsylvania Republican grassroots campaigns, Bruce was elected as the youngest borough councilman in the State of Pennsylvania at age 21 in 1992. Bruce worked for the Pennsylvania State Republican Party and PA Senate Senator Earl M. Baker in the early 1990s. Bruce also served as a board member for the Philadelphia chapter of the Log Cabin Republicans in the late 1990s.

During his college years at Syracuse University (1986-90), Bruce was Editorial Page Editor, then Editor In Chief of the award-winning daily newspaper, The Daily Orange.

In September 1994, Bruce launched the very successful gay conservative political blog – GayPatriot.org. GayPatriot was an original member of the PajamasMedia blogger network. GayPatriot receives approximately 100,000 visitors each month and has had over three million unique visitors since its launch. In 2009, Bruce became the Treasurer of the new gay conservative group,
GOProud.org.

Bruce’s professional work experience includes 15 years in healthcare policy and government relations in the biotechnology industry. He currently resides in Charlotte, NC and lives with his partner of 10 years, John, and their three dogs, Saxby, Shadow and Marley. Saxby was named after US Senator Saxby Chambliss after his surprising electoral win in 2002.


Has he ever written anything for Big Journalism before? I hope not. And I hope this is that last time he’s invited to write for them. As I’ve said elsewhere, there’s nothing wrong with gays joining the conservative movement as long as they keep their sex lives to themselves. But we don’t need to have them instructing us about “gay rights,” thank you very much. If Breitbart follows up on this cr*p, it will be another jump the shark moment and a real pity after all that he has done recently.

He just gave a great speech at CPAC, rejecting multiculturalism. That’s right, we don’t need this kind of in-your-face multiculturalism, thanks very much.

I think this needs to be named for what it was: FudgePAC.

If they think we’re going to go along with this, they can go screw themselves. And some of these freaks actually will.

Finally, how was Meghan received there? Must be hard to give a speech with duct tape over her mouth and “End H8” on her face.
