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."

Letting Soros funded people take both sides of a debate on drug legalization was a pretty clear turn in my opinion.

CPAC has the Birchers and the Homos as sponsors.

What could go wrong?

I had to do a double-take at the post date when I saw the name of Jerry Falwell...then I saw ‘Jr.’

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.

But guys, haven't they endorsed that conservative hero, Mitt Romney, three years running?

Wasn't Governor Palin the only major contender that did not attend and speak at CPAC?

Palin-bashing CPAC/ACU Chair donated $2,000 to Arlen Specter, endorsed Romney

Being snowed in makes these boycotts easy on me. I can’t go out and spend money anyway.

The Birchers have been screaming about this NWO stuff for as long as I can remember. Everybody laughed at them.

Nobody’s laughing anymore.
