GOProud Expresses Disappointment With CPAC Decision

Statement from the GOProud Board of Directors

(Washington, D.C.) – Today, the Board of Directors of GOProud, the only national organization representing gay conservatives and their allies, issued the following statement:
“We are deeply disappointed at the decision of the American Conservative Union to bar GOProud from participating in CPAC. They are well within their right to do so, but a decision like this will have consequences.

“For the last two years, GOProud has sought to support CPAC and keep the conservative movement united. Unfortunately, elements inside and outside of ACU have pushed their own narrow, divisive and sometimes personal agenda. They have done so at the expense of the conservative movement.

“What is truly sad is that this troubling development takes place at a time when we should be united and focused on defeating Barack Obama.

“GOProud has been and will continue to be an outspoken proponent of conservative values and conservative policy. This organization will continue to work to bring conservatives of all stripes together to save this country and defeat the left. Obviously, that work will no longer be done at CPAC, but it will be done.”

I am not shocked but very disappointed at CPAC actions today.

Well, maybe one of these days, the batshits will lose control of your party. Or maybe not. Maybe the Republicans will end up going the way of the Whigs.

Not surprised either. Thanks for posting. But, it shows me that what you are, is more important, than what you believe, to some conservatives, in a negative way. And vice versa, someone who likes you, because of what you are, rather than what you believe, tends to be more liberal. People can compromise on ideas, and accept those of different beliefs.

Thanks yodajazz I try to stand up, for my beliefs even when it goes against my political ideas. I am a person not a politcal machine. I think it is a major mistake to cut out fundrasiers in our own party. It's just sad
