Every year, the GOP garners a week or more of news cycles that devote an inordinate amount of media time where they spout their bullshit - mainly because they convene multiple RW "forums" every year like -

1.) "Value Voters"
2.) "CPAC"
3.) "Faith and Freedom"
4.) "Conservative Leadership Conference"
