The Conservative Political Action Conference, under attack from parts of the right for including gay groups, responded just now to the charge that it's been "inffiltrated" by Islamic law.
"The fact is that we will have a panel tentatively titled 'Defining and Debating Shariah in America' at this year's CPAC moderated by Cliff May of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies," emailed the American Conservative Union's CPAC director Lisa DePasquale.
