Gee. Never heard that one before. Did you come up with that one

WASHINGTON, D.C., August 11, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) -- GOProud, which bills itself as the "only national organization representing gay conservatives," has announced that well-known conservative author Ann Coulter is headlining their first annual "Homocon."
The announcement shocked both advocates of traditional family values and homosexualist advocates of "gay rights," who have previously attacked Coulter for her supposedly homophobic language and beliefs.
Christopher Barron, Chairman of the Board of GOProud, said he could think of no "conservative more fun to headline our inaugural party then the self-professed ‘right-wing Judy Garland’--Ann Coulter." Judy Garland is an icon among homosexuals.
“The gay left has done their best to take all the fun out of politics, with their endless list of boycotts and protests," said Barron. "Homocon is going to be our annual effort to counter the ‘no fun police’ on the left."
The GOProud "party" will be taking place Saturday, September 25, in New York City. Sponsorships of the event, which include two tickets, are available for $2500, while general admission tickets go on sale August 20th for $250.
Peter La Barbera, president of Americans for Truth About Homosexuality (AFTAH) said that Coulter should reconsider her appearance at the event. "As a fan of Ann Coulter, it pains me to see her cave in to political correctness and lend credibility to the phony homosexual "conservatives" over at GOProud," he stated.
He said that half of GOProud's top 10 federal priorities center on advancing homosexuality. The federal legislative priorities that GOProud endorses include repealing the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" ban on homosexuals serving in the military, "defending" the Constitution by "opposing any anti-gay federal marriage amendment," and changing the tax code in a way that "will provide equity for gays and lesbians."

Not exactly. Sodomy was against the law - for both heterosexual and homosexual adults. In any event, so was the poll-tax, miscegenation and "separate but equal", until the Court said they weren't. Just saying.
I don't want to live in a country where the imperial federal government empowers the "sex police". Apparently you do. We differ.
What consenting adults do, so long as it's not in public, is really none of my business. I don't understand why you think it is your business, however.
“I don’t mean to pick on you, Cheetahcat - but I’m going to have to step up on my soapbox for a minute. Please don’t take it personally. There were many posts like this that made me raise an eyebrow - I just responded to yours.
This kind of vitriol...this condescending dehumanization and disrespect for people who do not think like you do - who do not have the same lifestyle as you - these are some of the very reasons why we end up with someone like Obama in the whitehouse.
People on here preach about how being conservative also has a moral component. Words like these give conservatives a bad name.”
NO Wrong it is people like you who silence people who speak out and help people like Obama Boy,Now as for the behavior and Aids afflicted Queers they have done enough damage here and need tone it down! I got news for you that was one of KSM’s Carping points and contributed to the 9/11 attacks.
I saw their site, Im not assuming anything. They are not about the Constitution, they are about pushing homosexuality.
Who's "he"? I believe the "he" in the context of that quote is Peter La Barbera, president of Americans for Truth About Homosexuality (AFTAH).
“.... it pains me to see her cave in to political correctness and lend credibility to the phony.....”
I’d rather think that what Rush often says might apply here: “Follow the money!” How much is Ann being paid to do the gig? It must be a lot. She surely can’t be hurting for money after all her book sales.
....unless we’re told that we cant pray in school, cant stop the killing of unborn children, cant decide our own morals as they apply to homosexuality, etc....
In these cases we’ll shut-up & do whatever a Black Robe tells us.
If you read my follow-up at #82, I believe they are trying to undermine traditional values by engaging in identity politics.
It is one thing for a gay person to say “I’d like to fight for a common cause along side you all.” It’s another thing to say, “You all are going to capitulate to my demands!”
The difference between the NRA and Heritage Foundation (both of which I am a member) and some other single-issue groups is that the NRA and Heritage Foundation are pro-issue, not anti-issue organizations. They will counter whatever comes against them, but they are positive in their application.
Some groups - even those on the Right - are anti-things first. There is a big difference between a Conservative and an anti-liberal, for instance, when it comes to attitude. I’ve met many people in my life that think they’re conservative, but they cannot advance the cause, so they only attack the other side. That’s being an anti-liberal.
I just wish some people would love their own position on the issues more than the feeling they get when they oppose the other side.
For false Christs and false prophets ...
If you are looking at talk show hosts or authors as Christs and prophets, you’ve got bigger problems than Ann.
Let me guess, you think Huckabee would be a great president
She would never speak to a group that required an approval of her speech. In fact she doesn’t even work from prepared speeches.
You think GOProud has a conservative agenda? Get you head out of the sand or whatever dark place it’s stuck. Here’s GOProud’s legislative agenda, 90% homo-nazi agenda crap.
Note that these homosexual agenda pushers with a fake label on want to “hold the line” on gov spending. Hold the freaking line? When it’s way over in the “insane” territory? And punish other countries who are mean to sexual perverts? Sheesh! And of course they like “hate crimes” bills - not exactly small government - and employment protection (aka “you can’t fire homosexuals”). You like those examples of Big Brother Gov?
GOProud’s “Conservative” HA HA Agenda
(The following from their website with my comments)
The so-called “gay agenda” is defined by the left through a narrow prism of legislative goals. While ****hate crimes and employment protections may be worthy goals****, there are many other important priorities that receive little attention from the gay community. GOProud’s agenda emphasizes conservative and libertarian principles that will improve the daily lives of all Americans, but especially gay and lesbian Americans.
1 - TAX REFORM - Death tax repeal; ****domestic partner tax equity****, and other changes to the tax code that will provide equity for gays and lesbians; cut in the capital gains and corporate tax rates to jump start our economy and create jobs; a fairer, flatter and substantially simpler tax code.
2 - HEALTHCARE REFORM - Free market healthcare reform. Legislation that will allow for the purchase of insurance across state lines - expanding access to ****domestic partner benefits****; emphasizing individual ownership of healthcare insurance - such a shift would prevent discriminatory practices by an employer or the government.
3 - SOCIAL SECURITY REFORM - Bringing basic fairness to the Social Security system through the creation of **** inheritable personal savings accounts.**** ie for homosexual “partners”.
4 - DON’T ASK, DON’T TELL REPEAL - ****Repeal of the military’s Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy.**** THEY WANT OPEN HOMOSEXUALS IN THE MILITARY FOLKS!
5 - HOLDING THE LINE ON SPENDING - Standing up for all tax payers against wasteful and unnecessary spending to protect future generations from the mounting federal debt.
6 - FIGHTING GLOBAL EXTREMISTS - Standing strong against **** radical regimes who seek to criminalize gays and lesbians****. [even Muslim ones?]
7 - DEFENDING OUR CONSTITUTION - Opposing any **** anti-gay federal marriage amendment****. THEY WANT HOMOSEXUAL aka SAME SEX MARRIAGE SHOVED DOWN OUR THROATS
8 - ENCOURAGING COMMUNITY ENTREPRENEURSHIP - Package of free market reforms to encourage and support small businesses and entrepreneurship *****in the gay community****. HOW SPECIAL - BENNIES FOR HOMOSEXUALS! HOW CONSERVATIVE!
9 - REVITALIZING OUR COMMUNITIES - A package of urban related reforms; expanding historic tax preservation credits; support for school choice. (note: since homosexuals congregate in city centers, this is for upgrades to their own personal hangouts obviously.)
10 - DEFENDING OUR COMMUNITY - Protecting 2nd amendment rights
No, you do. Your federal sex police are forcing your sex beliefs on me.
How about becoiming a conservative so we can obey the first law of the United States - the Constitution?
But then there were plenty on here that trashed Rush for the Elton John thing.
Please read the comment I just posted. The GOProud homosexuals are NOT conservative, they are homosexual agenda pushers trying to steer the Republican party to the left and push their big gov homo-nazi agenda. That’s it in a nutshell.
I stopped reading or listening to her when she failed to honestly report on the Birth cert issue.
Now with this I see her as just another Rush Limbaugh.
There have been sodomy laws in the US since the beginning of the US. They started being struck down in the 1900's. In 1778 Thomas Jefferson wrote a law in Virginia which contained a punishment of castration for men who engage in sodomy but Virginia maintained death as punishment.
GOProud aren’t even fiscal conservatives. All they say is “hold the line” on spending and want all kinds of special bennies for sexual perverts.
She is a fine looking tranny if that’s what she is.
Of course I just think your nuts...
I posted the GOProud’s legislative agenda a couple comments up.
It is 90% homosexual agenda crap that is highly unconstitutional. They are not conservative at all.
My "sex police"? Whew, that's rich.
There are federal authorities coming to your home forcing you to engage in homosexual behavior? Please, tell us more.
