So what went down in this year's Values Voter Summit?

[alp227]

I've seen threads about the conservative Values Voter Summit across General Discussion: Presidency and other places but not on the Bush/Conservatives forum. So here's a centralised location for information about this year's Values Voter Summit.
- "Conservatives Weigh Social, Economic Concerns as Midterms Approach" by Kwame Holman, PBS Newshour, September 17, 2010
- "Shields and Brooks on Role of Values Voters, New Watchdog Agency" on the same Newshour program (Shields=liberal syndicated columnist, Brooks=conservative NY Times columnist)
- "VVS Double Whammy: Smearing Gay Soldiers and US Allies". Right Wing Watch: September 17
- "VVS Video Round-Up" (bring a barf bag just in case, and consider this link a waste of time reserved only in case of extreme boredom)
- "Rick Santorum: No Families in Poor Neighborhoods"
- "Strong Morning Tea for Values Voters" (an essay about the morning of Sept. 17, with more original content than on most RWW posts)
- A double helping of Michele Bachmann: "Political Science 101 With Professor Michele Bachmann" and "VVS: Rep. Bachmann Explains How Government Works"

Others' DU threads:
- Dog whistles at "Values Voter" summit. "Back of the bus..." "We have always been in charge..."
- Moralists Unite: Values Voter Summit Kicks Off In DC Today"

My take on the VVS: Just a big ol' lavish rally of trash talk and regressive advocacy.

They need some Culture

3. I love this. I hope to see similar agendas for them in the future - doing nothing,

going nowhere, listening to obvious idiots and calling people names...the GOP at its Grandest!!!

You GO, GOP!!!
