CPAC Bends to Religious Freedom Deniers

Is it true that men who have sex with men are now calling the shots in America? As are women who are intimate with other women?

Even as “conservatives”? It’s a tragedy that the American Conservative Union’s CPAC -- the biggest annual “conservative” gathering in America-- is now an apologist for religious-freedom-denying homosexual activists while shutting the door to responsible, respected pro-family organizations.

CPAC proclaims a “conservative” identity, yet this year the organizers are shocked, shocked at a call for bold action defending children and religious freedom by one of its scheduled exhibitors, MassResistance.

CPAC just retracted MassResistance’s approval to exhibit because president Brian Camenker urged his audience during a 2015 speech to be less winsome and more willing to express justified outrage over the degradation of our culture by “LGBT” activists.

And he’s absolutely right. Brian did not recommend violence and he never would. Just political push-back fueled by genuine concern for youth.

It’s time to wake up to the war that has been declared against morality. Aggressive “LGBT” activists diligently corrupt kids but still pose as victims. Their goal is to mute objections to, for instance, lessons instructing twelve-year-old boys how to have anal sex.

It’s time for a little less “love” and a bit more, “Leave our kids alone!”

Never forget that outcries against evil are a powerful witness.

Yet the Log Cabin Republicans—a “gay” group— will be exhibitors at CPAC again this year. This organization actively lobbies in favor of freedom-denying “non-discrimination” legislation defining homosexuality and transgenderism as valid behaviors. These laws coldly and deliberately put faithful Christians out of business.

Pro-family pioneer MassResistance was denied an exhibit after initially obtaining one. Why the retraction? Here’s what CPAC executive director Dan Schneider told LifeSiteNews:

Schneider indicated that CPAC had deemed some of the language used by MassResistance in the past as ‘insulting and disrespectful’ when speaking about the LGBT community. ‘Groups which would use similar language about other minority groups would be disallowed as well.’

It’s because homosexual bullies complained! That’s all it takes, apparently, for folks at CPAC to bend over, so to speak.

And of course, no one should ever insult the “LGBT” lobby, which Schneider inaccurately calls a “minority group.” We are apparently supposed to politely endure the sewer this “community” is opening up in America.

Another person called CPAC for clarification about MassResistance’s ouster. It happened because, a staffer explained, MassResistance doesn’t treat those with whom they disagree with “common decency.”

The staffer cited a 2015 UTAH conference where Brian Camenker urged the audience to squarely confront “LGBT” opponents of morality.

If common decency and respect are CPAC expectations, how does the conference justify its open door to homosexual bullies who encourage vicious rhetoric and thrive on vulgarity?

Take a look at the Log Cabin Republicans of Illinois and their obscene “gay pride” float a few years ago-- with children, sadly, in attendance. Decency?

If you read the CPAC website, the Constitution is central to the group’s mission.

So what about Log Cabin Republicans’ policy push for non-discrimination laws based on “sexual orientation” and “gender identity”? Christian bakers, florists, photographers and printers are being denied First Amendment, constitutional freedoms as these laws are weaponized against them.

Wrecking reputations, jobs and businesses is not “respect.”

The Log Cabin Republican website devotes a sizable section to such laws, complete with an “equality map.” Their fondest dream is universal civil rights for homosexual behaviorists and sex change experimenters. The Movement Advancement Project, funded by devoted liberals like Tim Gill, David Bohnett and David Geffen, is linked to the Log Cabin website.

This project also advances so-called “safe schools” from an “LGBT” perspective. Many of you know what this “gay-speak” means in reality-- indoctrination and corruption beginning in grade school. Small children are taught to accept that people are “born gay” (a lie), that this behavior is normal and safe (another lie) and that the only evil bigots who oppose these behaviors are Christians and--- wait for it—“conservatives”!

Last February 2017, CPAC was ready to welcome open homosexual Milo Yiannopoulos, star of his self-designed “Dangerous Faggot” tour, as the conference’s keynote speaker.

But then Milo’s apparent tolerance of pedophilia surfaced in a video. And that was a bridge too far for CPAC.

Proudly homosexual? Okay. Offensive and vulgar? Okay. But child molestation? CPAC figured this was not going to look good, even if Milo did strongly support the Second Amendment.

When did a “gay” identity become a conservative value?

This is the new alternate universe of jaded RINO Republicans and their lapdog groups. Look at Scott Wagner, faux conservative running for governor in the GOP primary in Pennsylvania. He sponsored “LGBT” legislation with no accommodation for religious freedom.

In some circles, respect for proud “LGBT” sinners is the new GOP standard, even if faithful Christian conservatives suffer as a consequence. Wagner would be a perfect fit at the 2018 CPAC “conservative” masquerade ball, where sexual license is now acceptable, even applauded.

It’s been obvious for some time that CPAC leans libertarian, so I guess pornography and abortion are okay, too. And marijuana legalization is advocated by speaker Gary Johnson.

C’mon, let’s be honest. Activists for American implosion are being exalted at CPAC. And heroic groups resisting the decay—like MassResistance—are being shown the door.

And when did lying become a conservative value? Deception is embedded in the “Log Cabin” Republicans’ name. No one truly believes the fiction that Abraham Lincoln wore pink underwear and snuck men into the Lincoln bedroom.

What GOP mega-donors with “LGBT” sympathies lurk behind the CPAC desperation to re-frame men in drag as conservatives? We should probably follow the money.

But whoever’s pushing CPAC in this direction is not simply short-sighted and amoral.

They are fools.

CPAC needs a “come to Jesus” moment—probably literally. In the meantime, a lot of folks are jumping ship.
