Free Republic Founder Joins Boycott Of CPAC
Free Republic ^ | 12-21-09

Posted on 12/21/2009 12:14:29 PM PST by icwhatudo

The founder of the website "Free Republic", Jim Robinson, has joined a growing boycott of the CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) due to a homosexual activist group sponsoring the event.

GOProud, a group that advocates same-sex "marriage," a repeal of the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy, and "expanding access to domestic partner benefits" for homosexuals, is listed as a sponsor of the event at CPAC's website.

Mr. Robinson has joined a number of conservative activists including Liberty University Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr., Liberty Counsel founder and chairman Mat Staver, and Gary Glenn, president of the American Family Association of Michigan in their efforts.

On a reply to an article about the boycott, Mr. Robinson stated "I’ll join that boycott. If CPAC is no longer for conservative family values then I want nothing to do with them. They’ll have to change their name to HOMOPAC."

homosexuality is a mental problem regardless of a handful of shrinks saying it isn’t

"GOProud I'm so damn tired of these deviant, diseased freaks hijacking rainbows and perfectly good words like "pride". I'm so damn tired of them, period. The more they push, the more I truly despise them."

Isn't pride one of the seven deadly sins??

“I went on the GOProud website; I left a message that they couldn’t call themselves conservatives if they supported same sex marriage. Period.”

To me, conservative issues always meant low taxes, small government, 2nd amendment, strong defense and constitutional arguments (like the right to life which included the right not to be ripped out of the womb based on lifestyle desires of the mother).

When did being a conservative change to mean adhering to fundamentalist Christian doctrine?

I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just wondering when you had to subscribe to theological opinions in order to call yourself a “conservative”?

“The guy running CPAC is Grover Nordquist, who married a muslim woman, appears to have converted to Islam, aided in the infiltration of numerous muslims into the White House and is more likely than not a traitor.”

Well then, you’re an ass.

“Hate the sin but love the sinner” begins and ends...


there in lies the problem right there.

why should we love those who couldn’t give a crap about us and are in our faces at every turn.
Why should we be nice all the time and yet they play dirty.

Why should we love them and they are the ones who force their mental sickness onto our children.?

I never had a problem with them until they started to attack and demean other and then they acted like spoilt little kids .

Lve the sinner , aye that proved good when homosexuals attacked some christians and all the christians did after was to say they will pray where as they could have pressed charges.
Shall we love those who barge into churches too and then start kissing each other?

love the sinner isn’t working I’ll go for the eye for an eye.
Jesus and Christianity isn’t wimpy as some would have us believe

so you say love the sinner meaning homosexuals and yet you just called a conservative an ass because htey pointed out Grover married a muslim

well he did and even his room mate has said he is more like Ralph Nader

On April 2, 2005, Norquist married Kuwait-born Samah Alrayyes,[30] who until then had been the director of the Islamic Free Market Institute. She is a CEO of her own communications firm and formerly a Public Affairs Specialist for Arab and Muslim outreach at the Bureau of Legislative and Public Affairs at USAID.[31][32]

Norquist is said to live a modest lifestyle. According to friend and former roommate John Fund, Norquist’s devotion to conservative causes is “monk-like” and comparable to that of Ralph Nader.[10]

The Birchers have been screaming about this NWO stuff for as long as I can remember. Everybody laughed at them. Nobody’s laughing anymore.

I never laughed at them myself. Most of their concerns were pretty legit. It was their predicted timelines that were somewhat off it seems. A couple decades late in what has happened to the nation that's all. Personally I'd feel quite safe having Birchers as neighbors much more so than a known unarmed liberal or the GOPprouds or Log Cabin GayPackers. I've known a few Birchers in my lifetime. With them you knew you were safe as were your kids around them. They were friends and neighbors you could count on.

I wish more Conservatives would demand an end to the Big Tent compromising. Some issues and values are non negotiable.

he did?

I’m only 41 I wasn;t around then when he was.

Even so I am not gong to love anyone who gets in my face , forces their mental sickness in front of me and tells my children that two men having sex is normal.

You might not have a problem with homosexuals but I do since they started their crap

"The Big Tent Strategy: there’s room for everyone in the Big Tent...except for you smelly, little people that put the tent up in the first place."

I've said on this forum many times that I don't really mind the "big tent" attitude, as long as everyone wants to get under the tent and understand that there are certain principles and core values that hold up the tent.

What I can't tolerate are those who want to seek shelter under the tent and then proceed to saw on the tent poles. That is why I'm pretty much done with the republican party as far as affiliation, and they will not get another dime of my money.

Not a theological opinion. I know lots of gay conservatives who do not support same sex marriage. It has to do with the ordering of a healthy society which is the basis for a free society.

I think most people were tolerant of people with differing lifestyles until they became so much “in your face” wanting to teach it to children in schools, etc.

Calling names and posting those pictures are ridiculous, I agree. I’m sure the GOProud have nothing to do with the stupid gay parades flaunting their silliness.

Excellent analogy. That’s exactly what they’re doing.

The GOP will never see my money ever again.
However the likes of Rubio in my state, the likes of Sarah and J.D.Hayworth will see my money.
This republican party wants to go the way of McCain’s daughter and the perverts then so be it but I have left that tent.

Since when did the GOP now think that we need to accept a mental sickness and perverts?

Grover Norquist *ping*

>>>> "The guy running CPAC is Grover Nordquist, who married a muslim woman, appears to have converted to Islam, aided in the infiltration of numerous muslims into the White House and is more likely than not a traitor.

He also was a lobbyist for the Seychelles which is a famously notorious money laundering hub and safe retirement place for criminals. He represented them in DC for years.

Anyone who want the details and links please email me. I would love to bring down that slime ball and have been keeping track of his treason for years. Because he ran CPAC it was hard to get people to pay attention to his slime." <<<<
