Sullivan Gallagher Debate Gays and Conservatism

Will the gloves be off?

In a Wednesday Cato Institute forum, Andrew Sullivan, the gay conservative pundit and Daily Dishblogger, will discuss the future of gays in American conservative politics alongside National Organization for Marriage president Maggie Gallagher.

The two will be joined by Nick Herbert, a gay, conservative British politician.

Information on the panel discussion, via the Cato Institute:

"Under the leadership of David Cameron, Britain's Conservative Party has jettisoned much of its former opposition to gay rights. Cameron supported civil unions for gays and appointed a number of openly gay men to his shadow cabinet. Nick Herbert will explain the reasons for those changes and elaborate on the new Conservative social agenda. Will the United States follow the British example? Our distinguished panel will consider the future of gay people's participation in mainstream society and conservative politics on both sides of the Atlantic."
