The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) an annual gathering of conservative activists will allow GOProud a newly formed conservative gay/lesbian group to co-sponsor the convention, but refuses to allow them the opportunity to speak. Controversy erupted after far right groups threatened to pull out and boycott the event, and so called "family value" organizations were outraged.
The organizers of the conference will gladly take the money from the gay group but maintains that opposition to same-sex marriage is a consensus among conservatives and that it is not subject to debate or discussion.
Demand that CPAC allows all conservative voices to shape the values of their philosophical base and party.

Boy, that sounds like what they want from us queers in real life, don't it? To work and pay our taxes, but to keep our mouths shut and let them keep shoveling shit in our direction. If GOProud accepts these terms, they need to change their name to GOPdoormats.
I agree lilo there is no pride in being treated like a second class citizen by your party.
