Ken Cuccinelli Hosting Concerned Women For America Fundraiser

The Religious Right’s favorite Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli is the “honorary host” of a Virginia fundraiser for Concerned Women for America(link is external). Cuccinelli won plaudits from right-wing activists for using his Virginia post to challenge anti-discrimination protections based on sexual orientation(link is external), attack scientists who believe in climate change(link is external), undercut health care reform(link is external), and censor the official state seal over nudity(link is external).

It makes sense that Cuccinelli is hosting a fundraiser for a group which believes that health care reform violates the Ten Commandments(link is external), gays are discriminatory(link is external) bullies(link is external) who hate democracy(link is external), climate change science is a duplicitous effort(link is external) to wreak havoc on the poor(link is external), and that President Obama wants communists to control America’s children(link is external).

Maybe when Cuccinelli is with the CWA leadership he can fulfill his law enforcement duties by asking them if they know kidnapper Lisa Miller’s whereabouts(link is external), seeing as the group was one of Miller’s most ardent advocates and offered clues that they know where she is.

But somehow I doubt it.
