The Sad State of a Conservative Organization
Young America’s Foundation (YAF), a supposedly conservative organization, assists student groups at colleges nationwide in hosting conservative speakers. YAF has a list of speakers that they offer on their website, and if a student group decides to host one of the speakers, the students will pay—often thousands of dollars—to bring a conservative figure to their campus.
To fund this operation, YAF seeks donations from generous donors who are under the impression that the money they give to YAF will go toward bringing conservative ideals to academia. The problem is, however, that this impression is not entirely accurate.
One speaker that YAF assists in bringing to college campuses is Tammy Bruce, a pro-choice, pro-homosexual, feminist activist. If the donors of YAF knew this, it would be unlikely that they would give money to the organization.
YAF advertises Bruce on its website (http://www.yaf.org/SpeakerDetails.aspx?id=260) and charges between $3,000 and $5,000 for each of her appearances.
If YAF’s conservative donors read Bruce’s biography on her personal website (http://tammybruce.com/biography) and found out that their money was being used to host her as a speaker, they would be aghast. According to Bruce’s biography, she is “openly gay, pro-choice,” a “lifelong Democrat,” and “worked to help elect Senators Feinstein and Boxer, and aided the Clinton for President campaign.” If that is not leftist enough, Bruce served as the president of the Los Angeles chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW) and was even a member of the NOW Board of Directors. NOW is a radical feminist organization that states on its website that it wants to amend the U.S. Constitution so that “economic equality” is mandated by law—B. Hussein Obama isn’t even crazy enough to say that! Affirmative action and the “championing [of] abortion rights” are also central to NOW’s mission.
Bruce lists on her personal website George Orwell as one of her favorite authors, who was such a socialist nut that he actually traveled to Spain during the Spanish Civil War in the 1930s to assist the communists in persecuting and slaughtering Christians. Had Gen. Francisco Franco and the Catholics not successfully fought off the forces of evil—including Bruce’s favorite author—, the Christians of Spain would have suffered a dark age not seen since the Islamic Moors colonized the Iberian Peninsula.
YAF should be ashamed for sponsoring Bruce as a speaker, and YAF’s conservative donors should either cease giving money to YAF or YAF should cease offering Bruce as a speaker for hire.

Thats funny. Orwell is one of mine, too. I’ve got a couple of his tomes on my thumb drive.
Rubbish....Bruce is a first rate Conservative Reaganite who saw the light some years ago and was rescued from the dark side.
sniff
I believe Tammy Bruce would gladly take a bullet if it meant saving this country.
the woman is a PATRIOT....A PATRIOT...
Come to think of it, I rather like Tammy Bruce, too. I probably don’t agree with her on everything. She’s maybe more libertarian than I am.
Tammy Bruce is way cooler than a newbie troll.
Who do you think you’re fooling, DUmmie?
hmm..sounds interesting and relevant. Welcome to FR..as long as you;re not a troll.
Before you go, let me invite you to read Orwell’s Homage to Catalonia.
Bruce is a libertarian with streaks of conservatism. And she’s kinda hot for a lezbo.
The side of Tammy that gets her invited, is this side:
“All of the years I was running around, pushing the leftist cart, chomping at the bit, screaming about how we were the banner holders and the flame holders for the liberty, and freedom of speech. The people who had made that work possible, were the, and are the, Christians and Conservatives of this country. That’s when I realized that a big shell game had been going on, and that I had been deliberately lied to. And why liberals, and the left do not want talk radio to survive, it’s not just because of influence! It’s because of what happens when people actually meet up, with Conservatives and Christians. When liberals meet up with Conservatives and Christians, or hear them, it’s dangerous, because then the lie becomes apparent ... as a former leftist, here’s what I know and what changed me: simply getting to know you. Be yourselves. Make the commitment, but BE THERE, BE THERE. That’s why the left wants you to retreat. That’s why Obama and his gang want you to be afraid, go back, retreat, be quiet, surrender, cause if you are simply PRESENT, you’re like the wind. There’s a house of cards, you’re the wind, Barack Obama and his thugs are the house of cards, they’re DESPERATE to keep themselves protected from the wind. The winds not AFTER the house of cards! The house of cards is vulnerable, because it is built on nothing.”

Quit trying to promote your stinking blog as news!
For your information YAF is Young Americans for Freedom.
She's a dyke. Yawn.
So is the Great Florence King.
Her ideas are well advertised and last time I checked, pretty much in line with mainstream conservatism -- and getting more so all the time.
BULLCRAP! Yes Tammy Bruce is a lesbian. But she is hardly “pro-homosexual”. she OPPOSES both gay marriage AND gay adoption. She is a huge fan of Sarah Palin and a staunch enemy of Barack Obama. Unlike Michael Steele, Bruce knows Al Sharpton is EVIL and has railed against him for years. Unlike Newt Gingrich, she didn’t endorse Dede Scozzafava. Tammy Bruce may be a “a pro-choice, pro-homosexual, feminist activist”, but she is more Conservative than most of the GOP “leadership” these days.
Nonetheless, thanks for bringing her up.
