CPAC Turns Away Pamela Geller

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.

Grover is married to a Palestinian Moslem.

What does he not understand about "unequally yoked?"

How do you think you got the ping?

Puzzie.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Puzzie.

WTH is a puzzie?

The genesis of Islam,
The demented ramblings of an illiterate memory impaired old man. His recounting of bible stories heard as a young child comprise a small part of the Koran. The remainder are the words of one megalomaniac after another seeking to enhance their power, their prestige and their wealth. The Koran and it's teachings tend to attract the fundamentalist radical types. It's leaders are self promoted to cleric. Islam is run much the same as organized crime. Mob bosses are self promoted and failure to do what you are told will get you killed. In Islam failing to be a proper believer will get you stoned to death.

This, Islam, what ever you call it, has no place in this nation. It is inimical to everything this nation propounds.

[RedHeeler]

You. Split tail.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Guess I was wrong, 13 is more like it.

Enjoy your stay putz.

US politics are infected with Islamists and their sycophants. I have no doubt that Grover Norquist was the prime mover behind stopping Ms. Geller's addresses to CPAC. Daniel Pipes had the goods on Norquist back in 2005:

Is Grover Norquist an Islamist? ^

It does appear that he is indeed from his actions and deeds.

Certainly some squish on that list (McConnell? Carly Fiorina? Noot? REALLY?) but on the whole, a pretty good one.

The one that really bugs me, though, is Romney. He’s literally yesterday’s news and his candidacy split the conservative movement right down the middle. He did far more harm than good to the conservative cause and really shouldn’t have been invited.

Darn it, I really like Pam, she fights the good fight (plus I find her totally not guilty/smoking hot). CPAC fumbled the ball here.

[Moorings]

Btw, who died and made you the spokesperson for the Conservative movement?

Bwahahaha... I guess I don't have your vote for that position that I wanted so much...really hurt my feelings there my friend. Which post did you not like?... the one about two many CINO's speaking, or the surprise at Fiorina being on the board.

[little jeremiah]

That is bad. Pam Geller is one of the very good ones. She has courage and wits. Norquist is an evil man.

[zzeeman]

someone opines that Grover Norquist may have had something to do with the blacklist.

That opinion is probably dead on.

[Candor7]

They have Allen West and Sarah Palin on to speak?

Maybe there is still some hope.

[Candor7]

Dr. Ben Carson is a conservative radical. But he talks soft.
He has the progressives fooled. Good for Ben.

Karl Rove, is that your latest brilliant strategy — antisemitism and pro-Islam? Grover Norquist’s your man. He's a real Jew hater with Islamic connections. Conservatives they are NOT.
