GOProud To Co-Sponsor CPAC 2010

Log Cabin Republicans splinter group GOProud has announced that they will be a cosponsor of the 2010 CPAC. The Conservative Political Action Conference is the annual wingnut confab in Washington DC perhaps best known for its 2007 event, during which Ann Coulter declared that Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards was a “faggot.”

Via GOProud press release:

Today, GOProud, the only national organization for gay conservatives and their allies, announced they are a cosponsor of CPAC 2010. Jimmy LaSalvia, GOProud’s Executive Director, said, “GOProud is thrilled to be a cosponsor of the single most important conservative gathering in the country.” The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) will take place February 18-20 at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, DC. “GOProud’s participation at CPAC is one of the most important things we will do all year,” continued LaSalvia. “This gathering of the nation’s most influential conservatives gives us an incredible opportunity to deliver our message.” “GOProud looks forward to continuing to work with the conservative movement to promote policies that will improve the lives of all Americans – including gays and lesbians,” concluded LaSalvia.
