Conservative Group Bars Log Cabin Republicans From Event

[depotoo]

This was not the gop.

For the life of me, I do not know why the Log Cabin Republicans take all the abuse they get from the GOP....they seem to be into rejection.

 

[TheOldSchool]

If republicans weren't so openly hostile to other cultures and beliefs, the left wouldn't be able to use identity politics.

Also, I'm amused that a republican is accusing the Democrats of having nothing to discuss.

Oh Jesus christ. You pussies get butthurt over everything. Bunch of thin skinned pansies

You're the one whining.

You're right, this is totally my thread. How stupid of me....

Now go derp along

But... but... identity politics!!!

That is the basis for this thread dumb ****. The *** agenda was rejected and you lefties pounced

Not really. It seems we just expressed pity for the Log Cabin republicans. They must be a really self-loathing group of individuals.

If it wasn't for identity politics the left would have nothing to discuss. Well besides extortion from employers & stealing from the rich.

Thats funny...Here the republicans are rejecting a group because of who they are and you complain about the lefts identity politics

Except you have no idea why they were rejected dumbass.

It says why they were rejected in the OP, Grannie.

The organization has every right to discriminate against gay Americans; but this is further evidence of the right's hostility towards diversity.

"We'd love to have them attend the summit and be in the discussion. But we have to draw the line at a formal relationship between two organizations with diametrically opposed policy beliefs," Andrews said.

They are invited to attend as participants, but not booth sponsors. Maybe they attend this year, and convince the conference organizers to let them have a booth next year?

Not any more so than the gay culture who is hostile to Christians.

Christians have been demonizing gays for thousands of years. Christians now want the right to discriminate against gays. Who's being hostile to who again?

But they are a Republican group and this isn't the first time the GOP rejected them. They seem to thrive on rejection.

Even tho many, many (if not a majority) of gay people are Christians?

Organizers for the Western Conservative Summit returned a $250 registration fee because the group advocates for gay marriage.

DENVER (AP) — Organizers of a conservative conference in Denver this summer have told a gay Republican group it cannot have a booth at the event.

The Western Conservative Summit is scheduled for June in Denver, where thousands of conservative activists will gather to hear Republican presidential hopefuls like Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and former Pennsylvania Sen Rick Santorum speak. The event is organized by The Centennial Institute, a think tank affiliated with Colorado Christian University.

On Wednesday, the president of the Centennial Institute, John Andrews, said his group had returned a $250 registration fee that the Log Cabin Republicans had sent in to secure a booth at the three-day summit. Because the group advocates for gay marriage, it cannot have an official presence at an event that promotes traditional family structure, he said.

"We'd love to have them attend the summit and be in the discussion. But we have to draw the line at a formal relationship between two organizations with diametrically opposed policy beliefs," Andrews said.

It was the first time a gay Republican group had sought a booth at the annual gathering, he said.

Alexander Hornaday, vice president of The Colorado Log Cabin Republicans, said the group was stunned by the rejection.

"I think it's very shortsighted," Hornaday said. "What turns young people off from the right is a perception that the right is intolerant or anti-gay. This reinforces that perception."

The Human Rights Campaign, a national gay rights group, used the conflict to pressure Walker. "As a potential candidate, Gov. Walker should lead by example and tell the organizers that he will pull out of this event unless they allow equal access to LGBTRepublicans," spokesman Fred Sainz said.

The Walker campaign did not respond to a request for comment.

Good. We're tired of anti-Christian, progressive scum infiltrating our groups and posing as members. They're the nutbags that bring the retardo signs that make us look bad, and who pretend they're *mainstream* when they aren't (see fake starkey) and lie about who we are.

I've had a few gay friends who are very conservative....they seem to vacillate between "I've got mine now, the hell with every one else" to shock that they are being discriminated against.

You dont have friends first off and if they were conservative you would have tried to late term abort them by now.

Man I wish every Log Cabin republican had the chance to read that post.

"They" aren't making 'you' look bad. You are.

Why on earth would a political organization repress the views of members of their very own party?

And why are Gays so repressed among Republicans? What is it about your fellow Americans that makes it so easy and so acceptable to denigrate them? What have they ever done to you to deserve such scorn?

Most conservatives fear change, diversity, dissent, and expressions of individual liberty – perceived to be some sort of a 'threat.'

If gay Americans are allowed to marry, many conservatives 'reason,' then that starts us down the slippery slope (fallacy) where three or more persons can 'marry' and then people will be able to 'marry' their dogs.

Needless to say this fear is ridiculous and unwarranted, but when they feel threatened many on the right can respond in an ugly, hateful manner.

And here's an example of that unwarranted fear, ugliness, and hate from the right.

GOOD! we do not need half hearted conservatives in our party. It's like adding cold water to soup to cool it off. It also waters it down. Go find another cabin to insert your logs into.
