The head of CPAC donating to help super RINO’s??!!! PURE INSANITY! WHAT A FRAUD!
I blew off CPAC the day McCain and his buses of koolaid drinkers drove up to their convention and they welcomed him like the 2nd coming of Christ while Ann Coulter was pushed into a side room.
..so is the ACU just a Potemkin Village hiding a bunch of RINOs?
I really do “NOT” like where this is going.
I posted the following comments earlier today at C4P. I’ll repost them here since it applies to this thread.
It appears that we have a new so-called conservative writer who suffers from PDS. Has anyone ever heard of Ronald Kessler? I didnt either until Monday. He wrote the following article for Newsmax in which he basically said Governor Palin had lost her nerve and wasnt ready for prime time.

In addition to regurgitating many of the phony talking points of the left, he also repeated the false meme that she had agreed to speak at CPAC only to back out at the last minute. There were a lot of snarky half truths in the article but I didnt think much of it because I never heard of the guy and just assumed he was another Kathleen Parker conservative trying to gain favor with the liberal media.
However, today he has a new article out which is even more full of nonsense.
http://www.newsmax.com/kessler/sarah_palin_cpac/2009/07/09/233604.html
In this piece, he interviews David Keene, chairman of the American Conservative Union, which runs the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). The comments Kessler attributed to David Keene, if true, cause me to wonder why Governor Palin would want to attend CPAC next year, or ever, for that matter. First Keene calls Governor Palin a whiner and implies that she needs to be tougher.
Sarah Palin needs to stop whining about unfair media coverage and get over the fact that some people dont like her, Dave Keene, chairman of the American Conservative Union, tells Newsmax. Palin doesnt seem to get that politics is a tough game, says Keene, one of the countrys most astute political observers.
Really Mr. Keene? What is your political experience? Have you ever been a governor, or even a dogcatcher? What do you know about political toughness? Do you consider taking on your own party with no name and no family money tough?
After this, Keene goes on to repeat the false meme of her failure to attend CPAC.
Palin has proven to be unreliable when it comes to speaking engagements that help the GOP. For instance, Palin at first accepted an invitation to speak at the 2009 CPAC, where 9,000 conservative activists meet to listen to speeches by the major candidates, swap ideas and strategies, and get energized for the next election.
She confirmed that she will be speaking to CPAC in person, Keene says. Then her office said she was going to be there, they were just working out the logistics. Then all of a sudden she couldnt be there. At the last minute she was going to do a videotape. We dont usually do that, but we said OK. Then it turned out they couldnt get the videotape done, they couldnt figure out how to do it or something. And so she just didnt come. Now that was our instance, and it also happened to a number of other groups.
Why would a so-called conservative repeat the falsehood that she agreed to attend the conference when that simply did not occur. Is it just me or is Keene still upset that she was unable to attend and now feels the need to take pot shots at her. Im not an expert in this area, but it seems to me that if he wants her to attend the 2010 CPAC, lying about her is not the correct way to go about it. I decided to look a little bit further into Mr. Keenes background. A quick check of his biography in Wikipedia told me all I needed to know:
In December 2007, Keene endorsed Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign.
Heres the link:

It seems that both Mr. Kessler and Mr. Keene are Romneybots with a clear purpose to discredit Governor Palin in order to help Mittens. Exit question: Is there any wonder why Romney won the CPAC poll the last three years, given that the guy who runs CPAC is in the tank for him?
Its time to cull the herd of RINOs. Sarah the hunter is the prefect one for the job.
Keene is a mongrel.
How do we end up with people like these calling themselves conservatives.
Contact the ACU, and let them know what you think of this BS and this BS’er.

Keene founded ACU. He owns it.
The party needs radical cancer surgery!
What was wrong for endorsing Romney?
