Speaker Ryan Sorba triggered a shouting match at the Conservative Political Action Conference earlier today when he condemned the conference’s decision to invite conservative gay group GoProud to the event. Sorba suggested that homosexuality is unnatural and that civil rights only extend to “natural rights.”
Sorba then challenged those who shouted at him to “sit down” by comparing them to the lesbian activist protesters that stormed the podium shortly after his speech at Smith College nearly two years ago. Smith was promoting his book The Born Gay Hoax at the time.
