Apparently GOProud believes that it would be better to have a president who would happily imprison you rather than see Obama get another term.

This from the guy who whines all day about what “intolerant gay leftists” say about him. Kinda hilarious, huh?

“Herman Cain understands the real and present danger that the spread of radical Islam poses to our way of life. Herman Cain hasn’t been shy about speaking out about the need to confront and stop the spread of radical Islam – a barbaric ideology that brutalizes women, religious minorities and gays. For the gay left none of this will matter. …

Shawn is Barron’s husband.

In a blistering essay which name-checks right wing gays Roy Cohn and Ken Mehlman, today Michelangelo Signorile posts an Advocate column ripping GOProud and its chairman, Chris Barron. An excerpt: [D]enialists and elitists who believe they are superior to other gays — even if the attitude masks a pitiful self-loathing — are clearly as prevalent as ever in the LGBT …

Barron is bent out of shape because I tagged my anti-GOProud tweet with #kapos. Kapos, of course, were not Nazis, but don’t expect hypocrites like Chris “Gay Left = American Taliban” Barron to grok such a distinction.

Homocons and wingnuts are amusing themselves today by tweeting all the ways they’re going to hurt the environment in observance of pinko communist Earth Day.

UPDATE: From Barron’s personal blog. Instead of focusing on the words of an NBA player or Sarah Palin’s teenage daughter, why doesn’t the Human Rights Campaign and the rest of the gay left stand up to the brutality of radicalized Islam? The truth is that they won’t because it doesn’t fit their ultra-liberal world view. The gay left wants to …

“A group of gay lefty organizations who CLAIM they exist to work on behalf of gay people actually put out a press release on Friday attacking Rep. Peter King’s hearings on Islamic radicalization. Nevermind that radical Islam teaches that the penalty for being gay is DEATH. Honestly, the Onion couldn’t have written this release. Signing on to this attack on …

Maybe he got tired of me always misquoting him by posting screen caps of his tweets.

“Considering we don’t support gay marriage and DADT isn’t part of our 2011 legislative agenda, I’m not sure how this effects us at all.” – Chris Barron, telling Red State that GOProud will have no problem adhering to new CPAC rules which stipulate that any organization supporting LGBT rights may not attend in the future. A Red State commenter observes: …

I’ll be on Michelangelo Signorile’s SiriusXM show today around 4:30PM to talk about GOProud and the CPAC “bigot” controversy. You can stream the show online for free if you sign up for a temporary trial.

SiriusXM host Michelangelo Signorile has posted an audio clip of today’s on-air meltdown by GOProud chairman Chris Barron. Signorile writes: Barron has come on the show several times in he past. My program was among the first media outlets to give his group any attention when it first broke off from the Log Cabin Republicans. We’ve had a spirited but …

World Net Daily reports that the board of directors of the governing organization of CPAC has voted to exclude GOProud (and any other “homosexual advocacy” group) from next year’s convention. This move comes after GOProud chairman Chris Barron came under fire for referring to some conservative leaders as “bigots.” Which they are, of course, but Barron had violated Reagan’s Eleventh …

Today openly lesbian right-wing radio host Tammy Bruce announced her resignation from GOProud’s board of directors. This move comes after widespread wingnut condemnation of GOProud chairman Chris Barron for calling high-profile anti-gay activist Cleta Mitchell a “bigot” in an interview with Metro Weekly. From Bruce’s website: I want to let you know that after being a supporter and serving as …

“For the past six months, we have watched as unfair and untrue attacks have been leveled against our organization, our allies, our friends and sometimes even their families. Everyone has their breaking point and clearly in my interview with Metro Weekly I had reached mine. I shouldn’t have used the language that I did to describe Cleta Mitchell and for …

The Metro Weekly cover story on GOProud and the CPAC boycott has been posted online. Reporter Chris Geidner does a great job delving into the philosophy of GOProud and who their allies and enemies are. You should read the entire piece, but naturally I’ll excerpt a bit with a quote from me in it. ”The problem is that the gay …
