STRANGE BEDFELLOWS: Breitbart Is Throwing an '80s-Themed Gay Party
National Journal ^ | January 19, 2011 | John Hudson

Posted on 01/22/2011 11:09:11 AM PST by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

For months, the family values wing of the Republican Party has been protesting the inclusion of GOProud, a right-wing gay group, at this year's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). You won't hear any protesting, however, from conservative media mogul Andrew Breitbart.

"We're going to have a big ol' gay party," he said on a radio show Wednesday. Breitbart says gays deserve a place within the Republican Party and he's been "offended" by efforts to exclude them. Therefore, he's throwing an 80's-themed gay party to welcome them on board.

If this sounds like uncharacteristic behavior for Breitbart, his additional remarks should clear things up:

I am not endorsing gay marriage, I'm not endorsing Don't Ask, Don't Tell. I will be the harshest critic of the activist gay left, who I fear more than al-Qaida. But for these people not to exist in a two-party system, for you to tell them they're not welcome in the big tent, I have a huge problem with that and I'm going to indulge in my all '80s Depeche Mode, Cure, New Order fetish and we're going to have a big 'ol gay party at CPAC.
Al-Qaida—really? Here's some Depeche Mode to cool down some of that hot talk:

Depeche Mode - Just Can't Get Enough (Music Video) from Depeche Mode on Vimeo.

Harumph. I am not impressed. A stick in the eye to family values.

A stick in the eye to socially conservative principles.

Regardless of what you think about your politics, celebrating homosexuality is as leftist as you can get.

“I am not endorsing gay marriage, I’m not endorsing Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell”

I’m almost certain that “gorpoud” do. Can someone please confirm?

So that would make them your “activist gay left”, like Al Qaida”, wouldn’t it.

Letting a few fags into your tent & kicking out the rest of America is pretty damn dumb.

How is having a ‘gay party’ showing that you just think gays should be able to vote conservative? Why not just say that? Depeche Mode? Oh, the guys dancing together. Yeah, Andrew that’s real ‘big tent’ of you. Liberal sickness is creeping in. There’s a line to draw with tolerance.

but for these people not to exist in a two party system

Oh they exist, Breitbart, they exist in the Democrat Party very well....

No one's excluding them except those of us with family values & higher standards...

..which I thought YOU had as well....
..sorry to see you got lost in Sodom.

I will be the harshest critic of the activist gay left...

. . .

But he’ll embrace the activist gay right, dammit!

Sorry, this is kinda pitiful and I’m embarrassed for him.

An 80’s themed gay party? He’s acting like a guy who really, really wants to be liked and just fit in with who he thinks are the cool kids.

If they are real conservatives we wouldn’t even know they are gay. They wouldn’t identify themselves by their sexual perversions.

Not yet, anyway. Can’t help but think that isn’t far behind tho.

In any event, other GOProud advocates think that detractors are some pretty bad peeps:

Should Gays Be a Part of the Conservative Movement? Part II

http://www.newsrealblog.com/2011/01/20/should-gays-be-a-part-of-the-conservative-movement-part-ii

“Mr. Sorba’s so-called “conservatism” is actually familiar. His is the usual opponent of classical liberalism: a totalitarian vision functionally identical in structure (if not goals) to radical Islam and the neo-communist Left. Mr. Sorba believes he can use the federal government to create his anti-gay utopia in which “sodomites” can be imprisoned:”

Breitbart hasn’t read the GOProud’s legislative agenda??? He thinks they’re “conservative”?

This is really amazingly disgusting.

I know, I’m going away now.

Is Breitbart a Libertarian?

Is Breitbart a Christian?

So that explains no bigsodomyagenda.com website.

Hopefully he will see his error and realize that homosexual acts have been considered immoral for thousands of years for a reason, along with robbery, fornication, rape, etc.

Just because all people don’t avoid immorality and just because laws can’t be enforced 100% perfectly, legalizing immorality won’t cure the problems it creates for society.

And people decry the moral lapse of their leaders wasting government money for their own political gain - if society is allowing immorality to run rampant, government and business leaders will reflect that. I would expect to see all sorts of crass behavior by politicians nowadays because there is a general acceptance of immorality; there’s no reason why leaders would not be a part of the moral tailspin.

We are going to have some very crazy looking family trees down the road, a lot of which will be lies.

As long as we have had Judeo-Christian civilization our ancestors have known that anal sex warps the mind. And that applies to heterosexuals too. Normal people have normal sex at their disposal but by definition all gay sex that involves penetration is anal. Disgusting and unhealthy. God did not make the rectum for sex

Judaism was a reaction against paganism that involved human sacrifice and bizarre sex between men and beasts. We are sliding backwards as we give gays the OK sign.
