The Freedom Federation -- an anti-Obama amalgam of Religious Right groups, "apostolic" ministries, and the corporate-funded astroturf Americans for Prosperity -- is holding its third annual Awakening conference in Orlando, Florida this weekend. Here's how it describes the event:
Uniting our Voices Around Shared Values: Turning Voices into Votes A war is raging against our shared values. Our faith and freedom are under attack. Silence in the face of this war is not an option. Decisive action is needed. Join with others who share the core values that make America a great nation. Take a stand for righteousness and justice and be part of a new revolution to take back America. The time has come to turn our voices into votes and to change the course of history. Outreach to the Hispanic community is a major goal of this year's Awakening and the theme of Friday's opening night session. |
