CPAC reminds me of a _______ Convention

CPAC reminds me of a Star Wars Convention. I mean the people who attend as well as the folks who get up on stage all are trying their best to be so serious about why they are there but to a non trekkie observer they look like a bunch of loonies.

Don't get me wrong, I liked most of the Star Wars movies but mostly the early ones and not the spinoffs like Ewok Adventures – Caravan of Courage.

CPAC reminds me of a KKK Convention. The blatant racism is disgusting.

CPAC reminds me of a pederast convention. Deep down inside they know they should keep their obscenities to themselves, but they keep on talking.

It's sort of an inverted men's gay pride festival. It's men with men who seem to be unable to deal with women as equal partners and in some case actively dislike them. The only reason they're not doing each other on the convention floor is that everyone's a taker not a giver and too selfish to even give a reacharound.

Why would CPAC not invite New Jersey's blunt Republican governor Christie? But would invite Donald Trump - a game show host?
