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."

Maybe she figures they'll leave her alone after this. She's wrong. She'll be expected to forever toe the lavender line and support whatever insanity they concoct.
They demand that you're either for them or against them. Pitiful that Coulter seems to have chosen the losing side.
Old Deck, please pay attention to what I wrote.
The point was that people aren’t trying to defend “people who lie to their mothers” and make me hire them or rent apartments to them. It is you who wants to impose your morality on the rest of us. This is not about anti-sodomy laws, it is about an effort to impose immorality on the rest of us.
Probably over a 100. There's a BIG difference between how the US fields and operates it's Armed Forces. When in uniform, some of your Constitutional protections are either suspended entirely, or limited partially. I'm sorry you can't quite grasp that fairly elementary principle.
What may be acceptable in the civilian world - or none of the Government's business, might also be competently unacceptable in the military.

You are spouting that libertarian nonsense again about “two consenting adults.” Jim Robinson has been very clear that talk of that nature - in relation to homosexuals - is NOT acceptable on FR. You really need to either stow it or move elsewhere.
Thanks for the advice, but I'll let you know when your opinion means something to me.
“Thanks for the advice, but I’ll let you know when your opinion means something to me.”
It is not my opinion that matters. Jim Robinson has been VERY clear that talk supportive of the homosexual agenda is NOT acceptable on FR. Your “two consenting adults” talk is NOT welcome here by the website owner. If you don’t believe me, ask him. So, again advise you counselor to “stow it.”
Finally, something we can both agree on - you're opinion doesn't matter - to anyone.
You GOTTA play to ALL of the audience.
**So long as they want low taxes, small government, a strong national defense and defend ALL the Bill of Rights, I couldn’t care less what they do in the privacy of their own home, and I suspect Ann couldn’t either. **
I have no personal stake in the private behavior of homosexuals. But, private behavior is not what these organized queers are about. They are about imposing acceptance of their lifestyle on others, in the open, in the laws, against the will of others. They want to make their sin NOT sin. They are very destructive. They are evil. Coulter should not have anything to do with them. Active tolerance of their behavior and aims, which is what Ms. Coulter is engaged in, only advances our moral collapse.
