At the Values Voters Summit over the weekend, Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, had two words for LGBT and progressive groups who took out an ad in The Washington Post which stated that his organization’s “groundless demonization of LGBT people,” linking homosexuality with pedophilia, is contrary to the “highest ideals” of the nation: “They’re wrong.” Six LGBT and progressive groups -- including the Human Rights Campaign, GLAAD and the Southern Poverty Law Center -- purchased the ad last week, which was an open letter calling on Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Preibus to disassociate the GOP from the Family Research Council, which hosts the Values Voter Summit, and from other anti-LGBT groups that sponsor annual conference of conservative Christian voters. “The reason is simple,” the LGBT and progressive groups stated in the ad.
