Ukip leader will speak at CPAC summit where plastic fetuses are handed out by anti-abortion activists.
Nigel Farage will speak alongside some of the most extreme conservatives in US politics
Nigel Farage will speak alongside Sarah Palin and some of America's most extreme Right-wing conservatives at a conference in Washington next week.
The Ukip leader will share a stage with a host of gun activists, Tea Party leaders and anti-abortion campaigners at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).
Visitors to the summit are sometimes handed plastic fetuses by Evangelical Christian activists as a symbol of their opposition to abortion, while some Tea Party supporters walk the halls in uniforms from the 18th-century American Revolutionary War....

She should stay far away from him. He is not a conservative.
Why would they invite a left wing wacko to CPAC? They only seem conservative to some for one issue. Voters in the UK see Fararage- personal and the party as left of Cameron and left of the Tories. And neither of those are remotely conservative by U.S. standards.
extreme Right-wing conservatives
Damn... I’ve search near and far for some extreme right wing conservatives.... can’t find any..
If I did.. I would join them........ what are these people smoking..?
UKIP is not to the left of the Tories.
It’s the BNP which is to the left of the Tories, not UKIP.
Stinking British press.
Where did you get that from ?
He’s an impressive guy.
Someone seems to be confuzzed here..

Ping. This is important.
Farage is for the sovereignty of the UK and wants his country out of the EU and its regulations that flood the country with cheap labor like Obama’s Amnesty does in this country.
The big newspapers that support the “Conservative” Party continue their fear and smear campaign against Farage and UKIP ahead of the May 7th election.
America’s most extreme Right-wing conservatives, sounds worse tha ISIS, PROBABLY IN THIER EYES IT IS!
He’s not perfectly conservative by our standards—would make university education free, as I understand it—but there are areas where he’s more conservative than our supposed conservatives right now. He’s much stronger on immigration and national sovereignty, for example.
Ping to Sarah's Awesome List!
A view from The U.K., like ronnie raygun said, America's Conservatives are viewed worse than ISIS.
"I gots my Biblez and I gotz mah Gunz, and Dat iz allz I needs!"
Extreme right wing? Brian Williams, were you hired by the Telegraph?
Shock poll shows voters believe Ukip is to the left of the Tories
UKIP supports socialized medicine. In fact, they made a point of saying they don’t want it going in the more “conservative” direction of ACA.
One UKIP minister let the cat out of the bag, that they want to make abortion mandatory for babies with Down Syndrome.
Farage is evasive on marriage, and we all know what that means.
Just because UKIP is Euroskeptic, doesn’t mean U.S. conservatives should cozy up to him.
He’s being invited to CPAC as part of the effort to drown out conservatives. How long before conservatives aren’t welcome at CPAC.
I’m sorry low information voters on this web site are buying this establishment PR.
That is a whole different question to what I am talking about.
UKIP may or may not be the best option. I leave that to British voters to decide.
I object to U.S. conservatives claiming he is a conservative. I object to him being used as a Trojan Horse at CPAC.
Aside from that, have at it.
