Anti-gay boycott of conservative powwow gains steam
I posted a similar article yesterday... this article has more information and video.

"Two of the nation's premier moral issues organizations, the Family Research Council and Concerned Women for America, are refusing to attend the Conservative Political Action Conference in February because a homosexual activist group, GOProud, has been invited."

2. This sounds like a plan!
Put heat on less crazy (relatively speaking) conservative groups to allow various pariah groups to attend, forcing them to choose between banning attendance and accepting the bigot label or allowing attendance and losing the crazier part of their base.

3. Well now...
I wonder how long it will take before those uppity gay folks realize they're not wanted at the table. Meh, probably never. They'll go back time and again like the good little masochists they are.

6. I hope this splits the Republicans into two parties. That would be good for the Dems.
