CPAC Turns Away Pamela Geller
Big Government ^ | March 1, 2013 | Breitbart News

Posted on 03/02/2013 1:23:08 AM PST by Bratch

For the last four years, Pamela Geller of AtlasShrugs.com and the American Freedom Defense Initiative have held events at CPAC featuring guests she invites to discuss the influence of Islamism on America. But this year, the American Conservative Union (ACU) has no room for Geller or her message.

[...]

In years past, the events were standing room only thanks to their popularity, but that apparently was not enough to counter pressure brought to bear from somewhere to exclude Geller’s message.

In the comment section, someone opines that Grover Norquist may have had something to do with the blacklist.

In its attempt to redefine Conservatism, CPAC is defining itself into irrelevance.

Don’t know about Norquist, but this is a huge mistake on the part of CPAC.

Islam is pure evil, period.

Islam is pure evil. Yet, Pamela Geller was invited to speak with Dr. Mark Gabriel, she absolutely refused.

That's what gets me about all this "redefining" crap.

Moral and righteous values are. Period.

Anything less is less, but it is not moral nor righteous.

Trying to redefine a label to capitalize on the meaning it once had without toeing the line, or even going so far as to undermine the former concept isn't Conservative, it is deceptive and patently evil. It is a fraud of the most diabolical nature and should be eschewed by anyone who values their values.

You are a master of tautological extrapolation.

Dr. Mark Gabriel has an interesting background. Is he Muslim or Christian; do you know?

I’m sure Pam had a very good reason. No doubt her contacts are extensive and she may have information about Gabriel you and I do not have. Her caution is smart.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_A._Gabriel
Mark A. Gabriel

Mark A. Gabriel, is the name of writer of Islamic affairs, who lives in the United States under “religious asylum”. He is the author of five books critical of Islam, including Islam and the Jews: The Unfinished Battle and Journey into the Mind of an Islamic Terrorist. While the books have sold tens of thousands of copies, they also constitute the only source of information about the author, and as such, are self-referencing and ***not verified by any unrelated sources***

Trying to redefine a label..........

That’s sounds just like the effects of “political correctness”

Mark is a Christian convert. Read his background. This man has written the books on Islam and Christanity, that no one else can or will write. Ever. He has the insight, that our state dept., will not allow to be heard. If you are truly interested, try reading Mark, say with- “Jesus and Muhammad.” This gentleman, recieved his first doctorate from Al-Azhar University, Cairo,Egypt. He taught there, the most prestigious Islamic University in our world. If that does not interest you. Good e’nuf. His accomplishments... well you need to read. It’s almost required.
