MSNBC's Chris Hayes (an editor at the neo-Stalinist Nation magazine) is as far as we know a nerdy heterosexual, not even really metrosexual, though when he lived in DC he could be spotted in line at the R Street Starbucks in DuPont Circle, DC's original gayborhood.
He's refusing to speak at the new "hets only" CPAC. Over at the conservative website Pat Dollard, they headline this as "gay blackmail." But Chris Hayes and Christopher Malagisi at the American Conservative Union and all the people at CPAC are straight. So why is this gay blackmail? Where is the gay person being blackmailed or blackmailing anyone?

That year the board of the American Conservative Union, which sponsors CPAC, voted to ban the gay conservative group GOProud from sponsoring the 2012 conference. GOProud was founded in 2009 by two former Log Cabin Republican staffers and its co-founder Chris Barron told me that one of the first things they did was send a check to the ACU to co-sponsor CPAC. They were accepted as sponsors in 2010 and in 2011, but social conservatives mobilized against them and ultimately prevailed.
