Though Sarah Palin will continue to avoid CPAC again this weekend, she does have some thoughts on all those conservative groups fleeing the scene over GOProud: it’s nonsense! See, when socially conservative Republicans hobnob with people they don’t agree with (in this case, conservative gays), “you provide good information and balance and you allow for healthy debate,” which, Palin says, “is needed in order for people to gather information and make up their own minds about issues.” And while that’s not a firm enough position on GOProud’s CPAC inclusion for some groups (*cough* American Principles Project *cough*), it seems even CPAC doesn’t agree with her on this one: Fred Karger, the gay Republican presidential hopeful, says in an open letter to the conference’s organizer David Keene that he has “emailed you and other officials with CPAC numerous times over the past two months in an attempt to meet with you during previous trips to Washington to discuss my inclusion [in CPAC]. I never heard back.” CPAC also denied Karger an exhibition booth; floor space was “sold out.” Because sometimes, even the big tent is just over capacity.

Queerty needs to start a humour page for stuff like this.

After the Tucson massacre and Mama Grifter’s implication in the tragedy from her now infamous rifle crosshairs graphic, it looks like her brand was severely damaged in the process.
Only the real far-right loons and the Teabaggers waving their bottles of Metamucil and Social Security checks give s rat’s ass about Nanook from the North.

Dear Jesus, what the hell did she just say? I literally didn’t pick up on any of that.

I have never witnessed so much unwarranted hate against a human being as I see against Palin. No, I’m not a fan; yes, I think she’s a bimbo. But she makes a comment about gays and straights coming together to discuss issues and all you whiners can do is trash her. Didn’t Obama Christ just recently call for more civility? Apparantly you thought he excluded gays in that remark. Your continuous venom against this nobody is laughable, but by doing so you’re the ones keeping her political career alive, so stop blaming conservatives for her presence.

Don’t you just love how she classifies people, not believing that we have the right to exist as “Dissagreeing” with us.
When one group says that you shouldn’t exist and the other group says yes we should, and we have rights.
That isn’t a dissagreement, that is one group wanting to make the other group dissappear.

Gays are too smart to give a shit what Sarah Palin thinks.
She is clearly a heterosexual invention.
Let them deal with her.

@SouthSideShorty: South Side Asswipe, your head is shoved so far up Mama Grifter’s rectum that it’s a miracle you haven’t passed out from lack of oxygen. I think people would be interested in knowing how much SarahPAC pays you to make such a fool of yourself?

I do hope that she is the repugnican nominee for president. Shorty won’t be able to blame the left for that one.

@christopher di spirito: Let me be clear: I do not like Sarah Palin. I don’t support her or her issues, because she’s a flake. I also don’t support Barney Frank, because he’s corrupt. What I don’t understand is the venomously catty harrassment that you guys throw Palin’s way at every opportunity. I understand your being anti-Right, but in all honestly, what has Palin done to hurt you personally? Or are you all just a bunch of sycophantic drones obeying the line the Left is towing? Not looking for a fight, just civil debate.

@christopher di spirito: I don’t agree with Shorty on everything, but he has written about a hundred times on here that he doesn’t like Sarah Palin.
I still wonder why every gay blog in North America reports on her every word.She’s not that important. She’s a television personality. Just have a laugh and forget her. the rest of the nation soon will.

liberal woman and liberal gay guys will never vote for a woman prettier then they are for pres. they don’t all understand it and when questioned will recite lines from late night comedy shows as real and then curse.
