jonah has to understand this real quick ~ somebody’s sex life is of far less importance to any political movement than winning an election or two.

C'mon, really? The man is going to be re-elected as a Republican. That's a little future right there.

So was Mike Bloomberg, Jonah. I for one am glad that the "C" in "CPAC" still stands for Conservative.

Christie does not, alas, qualify. And since social conservatism is the basis for all conservatism since it teaches us the difference between right and wrong, CPAC is better off excluding those philosophies which destroy the traditional family unit.

In other words, Jonah, pound sand.

CPAC unwise to invite ANY non-conservatives to ANY of their gatherings, ever! No more RINOS!

We can lose 17 million voters on that one issue alone. They don't turn around and vote Democrat ~ but they don't show up. That creates a lot of long term down ticket problems.

The next step would be to have openly-gay candidates on the Republican ticket. LOTS of people would skip that election.

It’s not a REPUBLICAN convention. It’s a CONSERVATIVE convention. And Christie is not a conservative. He’s a moderate/liberal. And the gay groups aren’t either. GOProud and the Log Cabin types are moderates and go to disrupt and cause problems and headlines.

There is no republic or democracy in your next life. I don’t mind ‘my side’ losing elections in this life.
Definitions wont change there.. Two guys living together are called Roomates. If they like each other- Friends. If they sleep together, Friends with benefits.. which is how this all started- Gays want their benefits.. could be easily handled without twisting any definition with civil agreements...

Townhall is going “Squishy”, perhaps even “Poofter”.

Poor sods can’t even remember basic math. Queers are but 1 to 3% and RINO pols are on the endangered list.

Why offend the majority of conservatives just to pander to pervs and continue tolerating RINOs?

Bah! Humbuggery!

Girlie man tells it like it isn’t. There is nothing wrong with barring traitors to the cause and practioners of a deadly perversion from the CPAC.

CPAC is right to ban gays. Any group that defines itself by a certain sex act has no place at a political conference.

That Jonah thinks they do is his problem.

Post 13 is one of the best examples of teaching by analogy I have encountered in quite a while.

Go away somewhere with your log cabin republicans, Jonah.

If we need to sell our souls to win....

Hey, Jonah.

You wrote Liberal Fascism, essentially making the case that today’s leftists are yesterday’s Nazis, so you know where both Christie and the gays want to take this country: to a decadent state that is run by the iron fist of hardcore socialism.

If your beliefs and values are rooted in truth and proven to be the best system of prosperity and liberty for a couple of hundred years, it is always wise to select as your representatives those who truly represent those beliefs and values.

It is always UNwise to allow your enemies to represent you.

Chris Christie is not a conservative.

The “gay” agenda is not conservative.

So why would Christie and the “gay” activists even want to come to CPAC?

Dear Jonah,

CPAC is not GOPAC

C = “Conservative” not “Republican”

If he really does not see that, then he is just a girly man
