News-wire and major media outlets are still whitewashing (um… ) CPAC. They use the most bland, if not benign, terms to describe the participating groups. Indeed, when Mitt Romney shows up he legitimizes the whole gathering, in the eyes of many, if news coverage is your metric.

This is a big problem. Accurate reports of the kookfest that conservatism has become are often dismissed because people tend to believe that US conservatives can’t be as bad as described.
