There is a parallel in the aborting of the female unborn in cultures where females are less than treasured. In response the feminists have outlawed or tried to outlaw ultrasounds to determine the sex of an unborn.
Here's how Politico reported the event: "Coulter's talk drew a mixed response, but her presence marked the increasingly mainstream Republican embrace of gay rights. Coulter had a falling out with a conservative website that has published her, WorldNetDaily, over her attendance. 'She's doing something important – she's showing her base that it's OK,' said one attendee, Michael Lucas. (Lucas also confided to a reporter, 'I wonder what Ann will think about the fact that I am the biggest producer of gay porn on the East Coast and probably in the whole U.S.')"

And Ann Coulter, no matter how talented she might be as a political pundit, did a disservice to the conservative movement by speaking to Homocon. I don't say this because I'm a "publicity whore" or a "swine." I don't say this because I'm a "fake Christian," as Coulter suggested. I say it because someone must say it. Even conservative celebrities need to be accountable to the truth.
I doubt that Ann believes that there is, but many in her audience believe it, and she was playing to that.
I’m still hesitant to applaud Ann. I would really like to see a full transcript of what see said, or better yet a recording. Then I could decide if she has regained some credibility with me. I considered her wrong to accept the speaking engagement.
I am not ready to say Joseph Farah owes her an apology yet.
The illness itself is not a choice. Those with the illness can't justify it by denial and trying to make it normal and even going to the extent of arguing that they can "marry" and have a "normal" life thereby.
Homosexual acts are a choice.
