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."

On a thread like this I begin to wonder where “Hate the sin but love the sinner” begins and ends...

It begins in the shower with them and ends when you bend over to pick up the soap.

Problem is, it’s not just a question of leaving conservative values out, it’s a question of substituting conservative values with death, perversion and Nazism. It’s like getting nutritious food only mixed with 15% poison.

How about NO poison?

You forgot part of it.

“Hate the sinners’ agenda”.

That’s very important.

BTTT for truth about why Muslims are catered to, covered for, and have so much influence.

HOMOPAC is in bed with RINOs, maybe?

Can you tell me why you consider John Birch Society members to be “Kooks”?

I’m not joking or being sarcastic, I’d really like to know more about this.

Thanks.

When did conservative mean promoting perversion and shoving it down everyones’ throats?

PS - It’s not just Christian teachings, it’s also Hindu, Jewish, Buddhist, Jain, Sikh and every other religion. It’s basic human morality and natural law to keep homosexuality in the closet where it belongs.

Has nothing to do with theology.

It’s natural law. It’s universal moral absolutes.

Homosexuality is a sick, depraved, unnatural, psychological sickness and moral failing. People who practice it should receive help if they want it. They should NOT be allowed to call the shots or make policy. The promotion of the “gay” agenda is meant to destroy freedom - freedom of association, freedom of speech, and freedom of religion.

The promoters of the “gay” agenda want to dominate and control our lives.

The fact that you (claim not to) don’t see this is telling in the extreme.

Loving the sinner means caring about the real person - the soul - who is destined for a very bad future by his or her evil actions. You can kill someone, while loving them. Say someone breaks into your house and threatens you. You would kill them, and rightfully so. You can still love that soul, while doing so.

Tough love.

Jesus loved everyone but he had very strong, harsh language for those who refused to stop doing wrong. Ever read his words?

He wasn’t namby pamby. You think he would have patted homosexuals on the head and approved of their behavior and agenda?

GOPround wants same sex marriage and homosexuals in the military.

Those are NOT conservative positions.

The very fact they band together as homosexuals promoting homosexual agendas is proof that they are not conservative and intend to hijack the GOP for their own purposes.

I was kind of late to the party on this thread. Being on the west coast and all.

Real love is caring about the other person’s real welfare. All homosexuals would be much, much better off either being healed from their same sex attraction entirely, or if that is not entirely possible, becoming celibate. And, of course, stopping any group identity as in “I’m gay” etc.

And, of course, giving up all promotion and support of the homosexual agenda.

If they refuse to do those things, especially the support of the agenda, they should be fought every step of the way. The homosexual agenda needs to be rolled way, way back.

Since Free Republic and appears many of its members are boycotting CPAC because one of their cosponsors is GOProud then I guess Free Republic and members will not be supporting any of the below conservatives who have confirmed to speak at CPAC's 2010 Conference.

Amb. John Bolton
Andrew Breitbart
Hermain Cain
Ann Coulter
Mark Levin
Marco Rubio (CPAC Keynote Speaker & Candidate in FL GOP primary for U.S. Senate)

Not to mention some of the other conservatives who have been invited.

Hon. Sarah Palin
Rush Limbaugh
Gov.-elect Bob McDonnell
Gov. Bobby Jindal
