Everyone’s talking about the political upset at CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) over the weekend, where Ron Paul won the presidential straw poll.
A panel that wouldn’t have been allowed at CPAC a few years ago was well-attended at this year’s conference: ‘You’ve Been Lied To: Why Real Conservatives are Against the War on Terror.’
Co-sponsored by the Campaign for Liberty, Ladies of Liberty Alliance, and the Future of Freedom Foundation, it was attended by over 300 people. The speakers were:
- Karen Kwiatkowski — retired U.S. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel
- Philip M. Giraldi — former CIA counter-terrorism specialist and military intelligence officer, current Francis Walsingham Fellow at The American Conservative Defense Alliance, and weekly columnist for Antiwar.com
- Jacob Hornberger — founder and president of The Future of Freedom Foundation
- Bruce Fein — former associate deputy attorney general in the Reagan administration
