Politics: What is the Values Voter Summit 2011?


Here's an interesting article about the "Values Voter Summit." I haven't heard about it, but it's important to know. I noticed that the only GOP candidate not affiliated with this extreme right-wing, ultra-conservative movement is Jon Huntsman. There's something good to be said about him for steering away from these hate groups.

Last weekend, almost all Republican Presidential candidates appeared on stage at the Values Voter Summit, a meeting sponsored by two certified hate groups on par with (and one with ties to) the Ku Klux Klan and the Council of Conservative Citizens.
Family Research Council and American Family Association have both been considered hate groups by the Southern Poverty Law Center for some time now, and with good reason; both groups push their shared agenda with dangerous propaganda and outright lies about gay  people.
To repeat: Rick Perry, Michele Bachmann, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Herman Cain, Newt Gingrich, and Rick Santorum all accepted the invitation of these hate groups (as they have for years), hoping to get their endorsements and the votes of like-minded individuals.
