Im worn out! The Derby and the Correspondants Dinner all in one day..

[alisasny]

I heard Matt Drudge come by to talk - he said something about Kopple mistakingly repeating some names three times last night.

Until a few months ago the WTC 911 list had some alive as dead but still that was crisis and working things out. No excuse for this legitimate news source ABC...LOL

[threat matrix]

Ben Affleck is going to be there too..

Report Four:
Pippin says Matt Drudge got pictures of the FReeper Awards. Kind of windy out there now - hard to hold the signs, but at least not raining.

Kristinn says:
Having a really good time. Busy evening - had to move under cover because of the rain.

He said to tell you men he got pictures of Maureen O’Donnell in a beautiful pink satin evening dress.

It is getting close to 8 pm and people are rushing in to dinner.

Virginia Senator George Allen (son of the Washington Redskins’ George Allen) stopped in his limo and rolled down the window to tell the FReepers to add ESPN to the biased media list.

I hear Kristinn handing out FReeper business cards to passersby.

Now the poice come by, telling them to move down the sidewalk a bit because the President is about to arrive.

[editorial note - it is fun to talk to some of the FReepers I have read for years!]

I missed Ted's list. Did he include his name, too? The man just doesn't have the good grace to fall down.

pssst...does Drew ever come to Daytona?

[blam]

Excellent!! Keep the reports coming.

[I still care]

I'm pretty sure Drew is a flaming lib - she will probably try to pull everything out of context.

[alisasny]

Stay, I am a stay at home Mom too and get out to protest issues when I can. This is one I have followed the FReepers namely the DC freepers for years on and always turns out to be one of the best of the year. Clearly from you astute summaries this one will not disappoint.

[WinOne4TheGipper]

All this AND they get to at least see the president of the United States of America? DC is the place to be tonight...

[McGavin999]

I just checked CSpan and it said the dinner would be on in about an hour.

[threat matrix]

In the grand tradition of past LIVE Correspondants dinner threads, I must post the Larry Klayman of Judical Watch photo stalking John Ashcroft at the cocktail hour with empty water drink looking for over the shoulder gossip/potential lawsuits ..

[ken5050]

Suggest that they try to get Drudge to invite them to come on his show tomorrow..

[Maigrey]

Hey! The party's over here tonight.

I've got the cokes. Anyone else?

[threat matrix]

Here comes the 'Vast Right Wing Conspiracy Table!' --looking good ! (Drudge, Annie, and Peggy Noonan)

[McGavin999]

OMG, I can't believe I beat you to a live thread!

[txrangerette]

I'm here!

[cmsgop]

No Doubt about that, but is good exposure if thr FReepers make it in the film.

[txrangerette]

Cool!

[cmsgop]

Red Hook Blondes Chillin as I speak!

[StarFan]

Both FoxNewsChannel and MSNBC have said they will carry the pres live at 10pm

That's probably what you heard. It should be replayed on C-Span later this evening so you may not miss it.
