Gee, I always go to dinner with people who hate and despise me and wish me dead./s
In his final year in office, I think he should make a surprise appearance and stand up there and give ‘em all hell and name names.
It would be fun to have the hidden cameras rolling when the food is spiked with strong laxatives and the doors are locked for 24 hours preventing any of the guests from seeking the restrooms.
If it’s festivities hadn’t begun to morph with the Oscar ceremonies, it coulda been a contenda.
Both spend way too much time trying to convince us that Conservatives are the Devil’s spawn.
Right there you’ve alienated half your audience.
Of course the attendees are happy, because they are 107% Leftist swine.
Okay, I’m exaggerating by 7%. We can reference it as fake spews.
I remember watching that and wondering WTH is wrong with his Staff for even dreaming that up.
I was actually surprised when the Rat Media didn’t harp on that stupidity 24/7.
I’ve never understood the point of it.
They should demand, for security reasons, a list in advance of who will attend, and then if any late-addition celebs show up, turn them away as “not being on the list.” That would be amusing.
Yes they have, it's right there on their website.
This is wishful thinking and crap reporting by the Examiner.
Good riddance.
You can give Michelle Wolf some of the credit for that. The memory of her fixed grin at her own lame “humor” is enough to drive any normal person away for years.
LIEberals DESTROY EVERYTHING they touch!
LIEberals DESTROYED the White House Correspondents’ Dinner!
When I lived in WDC, the DC Chapter had some REALLY GREAT FReeps outside the venue, and some VERY memorable post FReep events at the bar!
Trip gaily down memory lane, anyone?
[My DC Chapter ping list is an old one - apologies for all mistakes!]
Now that’s hilarious!!! Maybe some truth serum in the drinks then record and ask questions.
The last one I remember that Reagan went to, I can recall him laughing heartily as he got skewered.
At some point after that, it became very pointed and mean spirited.
I’ll bet you DC chapter folks all had a great time! I loved hanging out with all of you when I had the opportunity!
Yesthe FReeps there were memorable. Nadar was crossing the street and waved until he realized who we were. Met and chatted with those on their way to the dinner on both political sides. Carville was very friendly, but Begala, who was with him, refused to even come near us. And even had a nice chat with Barbara Olsen inside at the bar. Sigh.

Ah yes! Remember that one!!
Those were the days!
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the late Doctor Raul (RIP!)!
The Doc was, fer shure, fer shure, the life of those FReeps! We’ll need someone to post a picture of him in full costume, please!
Here is a link to the April 25, 2015 FReep: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3278690/posts.
And, here is a link to the live thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3283098/posts
Surely there are others that will show how much fun we had poking fun at the LIEberals in the years before I moved to Flori-Duh in 2004?
I don't know who took this picture of him...I might have, or it might have been one of the Trooprallys. But when I look at this picture, it captures him perfectly.
Look at him. He is standing erect. His shoulders are square. In one hand he is grasping a pole. No question what is at the top of that pole. He is facing a possible adversary, the other hand points for emphasis.
His face is serene. There is no trace of hatred. No trace of fear. No trace of anger.
On top of his head he wears a hat. If you look closely at that hat, it says: Halliburton
My buddy and I (veteran) always marveled at that hat. We loved it. It was perfect. The hat was only one single weapon in an arsenal he marshaled against our foes, but it was the one weapon, that for us, epitomized Dr. Raoul.
He never mentioned it to us when he talked, but veeram and I still laugh and grin at the memory of his bearded face under that Halliburton hat.
He knew with a surety, that just a glimpse of the name "Halliburton" was enough to induce spittle-lipped cursing in his weaker adversaries, and an air of distraction in those who were trying to skewer him. And we always thought he took a special, unspoken pleasure in wearing that hat. It was a totem to him, and, at the same time, anathema to liberals. The duality of it probably pleased him. It was so easy to wear, yet caused much consternation in the hearts and minds of those who opposed him.
We would talk about it on our long rides home on Sundays. We imagined a stealthy Dr. Raoul walking up behind a pink t-shirted, sign carrying liberal to just within hearing, and whispering sotto voce with one hand cupping his mouth from the side: "Halliburton!"
Like a dam, long straining under loads it was not meant to hold, the liberals would come apart at the seams when the word registered in their brains.
How we admired him. And how little we knew about him He seemed like a very private man to me.
I would like to think that Dr. Raoul had the DNA of our founders in him. I can easily imagine him back in 1772 in Colonial America. I think he would have been right at home there, facing off with the British.
Yes — Dr. Raoul was a very private man. I often met him to give him a ride to DC, but not at his home and he spoke very little about himself. Still he was a unique man and very much a devoted Freeper.
