Farah: Same-Sex Marriage is 'One of the Most Radical Ideas Considered Since Child Sacrifice'

SUBMITTED BY Brian Tashman on Wednesday, 3/6/2013 12:30 pm

WorldNetDaily editor Joseph Farah is pleased with CPAC’s decision to ban GOProud, a gay Republican group, but thinks that the event's organizers should go even further and bar any supporter of marriage equality as well. Farah argues that commentator S.E. Cupp, who bowed out of the summit to protest GOProud’s exclusion, shouldn’t have been invited in the first place. According to Farah, no one can be conservative and favor same-sex marriage, which he calls “one of the most radical ideas considered since child sacrifice.”

Hey, S.E.! It has been figured out. CPAC had a civil war over this issue, and your side lost. What is conservative about advocating for same-sex marriage?

I can’t think of an issue that more clearly defines what a conservative is than this one.

This is not the Libertarian Political Action Conference. It’s not the Liberal Political Action Conference. It’s the Conservative Political Action Conference. What’s wrong with limiting the speakers and the sponsors to conservatives?

Why is S.E. Cupp even invited to speak?

I don’t get it.



The Conservative Political Action Conference is for conservatives – not for people who seek to undermine the Judeo-Christian basis of Western civilization with one of the most radical ideas considered since child sacrifice.

They need more like him, insane ranters from whom normal, rational people recoil in horror.

They decided to move even further to the Right, and in doing so, leave even more voters behind.

Not because I doubt you but because it is SO OUT THERE.

Even a lot of conservatives are finally coming around on this issue. People I know who are very conservative and whom I thought would never support gay marriage are talking about how it's time to "get on the right side of history" and embrace freedom for people to live in a way that makes them happy. People who stay on the wrong side of history are in danger of becoming less and less relevant.

There is no going back on this issue. It's way too late. Same sex marriage will be legal on a federal level before long. I have no doubt. I don't think I'm just being optimistic even. It just seems very very obvious that's where we're headed, and quickly. Yay!
