A Hate Group featuring Brian Brown are speaking at a Family Values Conference in Moscow


Looks like Brian Brown is causing international drama.

Check this out
A planned conference at the Kremlin organized by the Illinois-based World Congress of Families, which was supposedly cancelled after Russia’s incursion into Ukraine, is in fact going ahead this week with only nominal changes to its sponsorship line-up.

In fact, World Congress of Families officials Don Feder and Larry Jacobs were on hand at the event’s opening today to take questions from reporters…being careful to give their affiliations as their personal consulting operations rather than WCF.

Also planning to attend and scheduled to speak tomorrow, according to organizers: National Organization for Marriage President Brian Brown.

Last year, Brown travelled to Moscow with a group of French anti-gay activists to speak to members of the Russian Parliament in support of a spate of anti-gay laws. He then travelled back to Moscow to help organize what was then supposed to be the World Congress of Families summit. Brown is scheduled to be in France this weekend to lead a training for activists with the anti-gay group Manif Pour Tous. We'll keep an eye on news reports to see if Brown does in fact speak at the Kremlin conference tomorrow.
If this meeting actually happens, Brian could be in trouble. Here's why.

John Boehner allows Hate Group to meet House Office Building


So, House Speaker John Boehner continues to be a dick.

A hate group known as the World Congress of Families wanted to meet at the senate office room. Now, why is this group a hate group? Well in short, they want copy Russia's gay laws here in the states. Once the news got out, LGBT groups were not happy and called them out. Then, Illinois Sen. Mark Kirk, canceled their space in the Senate building.

Good times, right? Wrong, guess who came to their rescue, BOEHNER.

This fool gave them a space in the House office building. World Congress of Families President Allan Carlson was so happy about this, saying:
“At least in the House of Representatives people have not succumbed to the great fear. A great fear seems to be descending over what has been called the world’s greatest deliberative body … ideas are being suppressed, debate is being shut off, and minds are being closed.”
We're being closed minded? Child please.

Boehner claims he doesn't support their views, but why would he get involved? Why does he care about this hate group? I think it has something to do with money and possible donors. This group should watched, because I have a feeling they're up to something serious.
