WND drops Ann Coulter from Miami event over Homoconflict
World Net Daily ^ | 8/17/2010 | wnd

Posted on 08/19/2010 7:00:21 PM PDT by tutstar

Conservative superstar Ann Coulter today was dropped as a keynote speaker for WND's "Taking America Back National Conference" next month because of her plan to address an event titled "HOMOCON" sponsored by the homosexual Republican group GOProud that promotes same-sex marriage and military service for open homosexuals.

Joseph Farah, editor and chief executive officer of WND, said the decision was a gut-wrenching one for his team because of their fondness for Coulter as both a person and writer-speaker.

"Ultimately, as a matter of principle, it would not make sense for us to have Ann speak to a conference about 'taking America back' when she clearly does not recognize that the ideals to be espoused there simply do not include the radical and very 'unconservative' agenda represented by GOProud," said Farah. "The drift of theconservative movement to a brand of materialistic libertarianism is one of the main reasons we planned this conference from the beginning."

Asked by Farah why she was speaking to GOProud, Coulter said: "They hired me to give a speech, so I'm giving a speech. I do it all the time."

Check out “The Pink Swastika” - it’s all online. The Nazis didn’t kill homosexuals, many of them were homosexuals!

Copied from their website with a few notes added by me: These people are NOT conservative.

http://www.goproud.org.php5-12.dfw1-2.websitetestlink.com/federal-legislative-priorities/

Federal Legislative Priorities

GOProud’s Conservative Agenda

The so-called “gay agenda” is defined by the left through a narrow prism of legislative goals. While hate crimes and employment protections may be worthy goals, there are many other important priorities that receive little attention from the gay community. GOProud’s agenda emphasizes conservative and libertarian principles that will improve the daily lives of all Americans, but especially gay and lesbian Americans.

NOTE: “Hate crimes” and forcing people to hire homosexuals are WORTHY GOALS!

1 – TAX REFORM - Death tax repeal; domestic partner tax equity, and other changes to the tax code that will provide equity for gays and lesbians; cut in the capital gains and corporate tax rates to jump start our economy and create jobs; a fairer, flatter and substantially simpler tax code.

NOTE: Domestic partner - more “gay” rights!

2 – HEALTHCARE REFORM – Free market healthcare reform. Legislation that will allow for the purchase of insurance across state lines – expanding access to domestic partner benefits; emphasizing individual ownership of healthcare insurance – such a shift would prevent discriminatory practices by an employer or the government.

NOTE: Domestic partner health benefits - end “discrimination” - code words for “gay” rights!

3 – SOCIAL SECURITY REFORM - Bringing basic fairness to the Social Security system through the creation of inheritable personal savings accounts.

NOTE: “Fairness” is a code word for “gay” rights!

4 – DON’T ASK, DON’T TELL REPEAL – Repeal of the military’s Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy.

NOTE: They want homosexuals in the military!

5 – HOLDING THE LINE ON SPENDING – Standing up for all tax payers against wasteful and unneccessary spending to protect future generations from the mounting federal debt.

NOTE: But they want government spending for “gay” rights!

6 – FIGHTING GLOBAL EXTREMISTS – Standing strong against radical regimes who seek to criminalize gays and lesbians.

NOTE: They want the US to police other countries for “gay” rights!

7 – DEFENDING OUR CONSTITUTION – Opposing any anti-gay federal marriage amendment.

NOTE: THEY WANT HOMOSEXUAL MARRIAGE!

8 – ENCOURAGING COMMUNITY ENTREPRENEURSHIP – Package of free market reforms to encourage and support small businesses and entrepreneurship in the gay community.

NOTE: Tax money to “GAY COMMUNITY”!

9 – REVITALIZING OUR COMMUNITIES – A package of urban related reforms; expanding historic tax preservation credits; support for school choice.

NOTE: They want tax money for old town parts of cities where homosexuals often live!

10 – DEFENDING OUR COMMUNITY – Protecting 2nd amendment rights.

GOProud is not conservative. They’re regular “gay” activists masquerading (not very well) as “conservatives”. Anyone who reads their legislative agenda will see clearly that it is 90% homosexual agenda.

GOProud is a militant homosexual front group.

Chairman of the Board, Christopher Barron: “We are a gay organization, we only work on gay issues, we have never claimed otherwise. My God people.”

Jesus told them to sin no more.

You think Coulter is going to slam them for their non-conservative all-”gay” agenda?

Excuse me? FR does not support the homosexual agenda. We fight it.

To amplify your post, DJ macWow, below is an excerpt from the Free Republic Mission statement by Free Republic founder Jim Robinson.

As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.

(Emphasis is mine)

Conservatism is more than just proclaiming government spending needs to be controlled and/or limited. It should also include positions regarding social policies such as being opposed to the homosexual agenda, family values, supporting the right to life, and protecting our borders from illegal entry, defense of 2nd Amendment rights, etc.

While I agree conservatism can't be stuffed into a box with "agree" or "get out," a view that one can be a conservative on simply economic policies is myopic.

Jim Robinson also posted a warning about supporting the homosexual agenda on FR.

FR is a conservative site. We do not appreciate our members fighting against us on our conservative values and issues. If you wish to support homosexual marriage or homosexuals in the military or hate crimes against us for speaking out against government promotion of homosexuality that’s your business, but you’d better do it somewhere else and not on FR. If you value your posting privileges, that is. FR is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-marriage, pro-military, pro-traditional American conservatism and it is a privilege to post here. Those who support the godless liberal/Marxist destruction of our free society and our country are free to exercise their free speech rights elsewhere. I won’t stand in your way.

You are entirely correct. What that means to me is that Federal, state, local and military may have statutes against it if they can be passed and enforced but there is nothing inherent or written in the Constitution prohibiting it.
I am conservative and have homosexual friends who are faithful to each other, good, considerate and honest. If they weren't they would not be my friends. Their sex lives are their business in the same sense that my sex life is my private business. Promiscuous sex by homosexuals or heterosexuals is stupid, but I don't think it is illegal.

Thanks for posting Jim Robinson’s specific warning on supporting the homosexual agenda on FR.

Those who post that pro-homosexual garbage here on FR have been warned.

I have a gay brother. I still do not support the homosexual agenda. And they have an agenda. See post 42. They are already in the schools and are try to use the courts to get “gay marriage”. Check the link in 36. This is who is getting special rights based solely on behavior. Do you think that behavior is special?

Personally, as the father of 6 children and grandfather to 4, I could give a sh!t about what people do in the bedroom or what they want to call their lame relationships to each other. America faces a lot bigger problems than who's screwing who....

That's not the problem. They want hate laws to shut you up. And silence the church. They want homosexual "marriage" and the right to adopt. And they AREN'T keeping "in the bedroom".

The link will show you what took place in public. In front of children. Folsom Street Fair

Are you pushing the homosexual agenda? I thought that the issue simply didn't interest you.

Lol, so true. I never got why so many Freepers consider her a “looker.”

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I suppose, but to me she is gangly, ugly and venomous. Yick! Lol

You might want to let them know that courts powerful enough to grant them special “rights” (rights not contained in the Constitution) are also powerful enough to deny their real constitutional rights.

Just saying..the courts are the ones who are and have pushed “homsexual marriage”, sodomy “rights” and all that..
