I agree! The way C-Span was advertising upcoming speakers, Newt - Ann - Sarah, I thought Ann was going to give a speech, so I was initially a bit disappointed hearing it was going to be a panel presentation.

I’m sure I’ve heard him before, but didn’t recall hearing Mickey speak. Ann and Mickey played off each other well!

Ann is always a headliner at CPAC so the management could not exclude her. They devised this format to prevent her from talking about immigration. Cardenas and company support amnesty, which is why they loaded up the only panel on immigration with amnesty supporters. Even Congressman Lamar Smith spoke out about it.

CPAC Immigration Debate Stacked 3-to-1 with Pro-Amnesty Panelists

"Rep. Lamar Smith (R-TX), a former chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, has apparently had enough of what he sees as the pro-amnesty mentality at the Conservative Political Action Conference.

In response to a panel which includes four proponents of comprehensive immigration reform and one critic, Smith ripped the American Conservative Union, which hosts CPAC, in a press release.

“You have to wonder when a self-described conservative organization stacks an immigration panel with amnesty advocates,” Smith accused. “For the second year in a row, CPAC has featured a panel where all but one speaker supports the agenda of liberal Democrats and the liberal national media. ‘Truth-in-advertising’ would require CPAC to drop the word ‘conservative.’”

Ann outfoxed CPAC by taking over the so-called debate and focusing it on immigration ignoring the moderator's attempt to prevent it.
