CPAC associated itself with Grover Norquist
What is going on here? I must say I was very dismayed to learn that CPAC's latest gathering included even the shady Grover Norquist, and the Tea Party may have even joined the event without question of his background.
Needless to say, this is an embarrassment. As Malkin reminds here:
If the Tea Party, which I don't follow regularly, but would like to support even from afar, continues to have any involvement with people like Norquist, or, more precisely, conservatives themselves, it's possible their efforts to resurrect the conservative majority could be hindered. Conservatives who understand the situation here must make their voices heard.
Update: Front Page Mag has an interview with Pamela Geller (via News Real Blog) about this very astounding embarrassment to the conservative movement.
Needless to say, this is an embarrassment. As Malkin reminds here:
[David] Keene and Norquist support the Obama/Democrat majority approach of civilian trials for terrorists. And in the name of “constitutional conservatism,” Norquist supports de facto open borders and dangerous pandering to Muslim grievance-mongers.For a little more, read this article from the American Spectator.
