That is, it's time for the gathering of the "Values Voters" and those who pander to them, starting up today.
CNN is reporting on some of the planned details of this lively hatefest.
In-between speeches, attendees will also participate in forums with titles ranging from "Thugocracy: Fighting The Vast Left Wing Conspiracy" to "Global Warming Hysteria."
Other sessions include
*SPEECHLESS - SILENCING THE CHRISTIANS
*DEFUNDING PLANNED PARENTHOOD
*ACTIVISM AND CONSERVATISM: FIT TO A TEA (PARTY)
*THE THREAT OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION
*OBAMACARE: RATIONING YOUR LIFE AWAY
*MARRIAGE: WHY IT'S WORTH DEFENDING AND HOW REDEFINING IT THREATENS RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
*THE NEW MASCULINITY
*WAIT NO MORE: FINDING FAMILIES FOR WAITING KIDS
*TURNING THE TIDE IN YOUR GENERATION
Another highlight: a "2012 Presidential Straw Poll," featuring such wingnut favorites as:
former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, Texas Rep. Ron Paul, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, Indiana Rep. Mike Pence, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum.
(This could, of course, lead to a three way jousting match involving Palin, Pawlenty and Santorum to see who best can describe the U.S as a Christian nation while at the same time ignore Christ as they engage in colorful hate speech against Obama, liberals, Democrats, Pelosi, gays, minorities, and other select targets.)
And also this. Oh joy!
Among the other conservative luminaries slated to speak: Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Minority Whip Eric Cantor, Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, Georgia Rep. Tom Price, New Jersey Rep. Chris Smith, Texas Gov. Rick Perry and former Miss California Carrie Prejean.
Will Bachman be speaking in toungues? Will Perry continue to try and redo the Civil War. Will Miss California and Sara Palin trade notes on, to quote Tina Fey, "fancy pageant walkin'" Stay tuned! For those who can stomach it, C-Span is carrying it live. I just tuned in for a few minutes and they are already attacking both Planned Parenthood and government supported health care. I turned the TV off, as I woke up with a quesy stomach to begin with.
