Live From CPAC!
The Buzz of activity at this booth is so hectic that it might be difficult to maintain this thread. Our booth is on the corner overlooking Radio Row and directly across the aisle from The Leadership Institute. We are adjacent to the Washington Times Monthly, and diagonal to Ocents.com (Seeking the Truth's product booth). Already the attendance for CPAC seems to exceed the years I have previously attended.
We just spent about ten minutes with Mark Levin of Landmark Legal Foundation (Freeper - Hold On Now) and conservative luminaries are literally walking the halls. IronJack is right now interviewing David Horowitz for FreeRepublic Radio.
Abner and Abner's husband victim of circumstance are filling a helium flag balloon that will be flying around the room in mere moments. We saw shots of their US Flag Balloon in a football stadium in Brazil as it nears completion. We will have her post this photo asap.
Freepers that are here at CPAC are wondering in and out and attending the forums. We wll have them check in here from time to time and keep you posted.
Please keep this thread bumbed and feel free to post questions that we can use on Free Republic Radio.
Regards,
The Shrew

Requiem for Truth's beautiful daughter (5 yrs) sang Lee Greenwood's song- I'm Proud to be an American for us. Wow! What an incredible voice! The restaurant treated her to a desert of her choice (vanilla ice cream) as a Thank you.
I was instructed to bump this thread even though I previously deleted the first threads The Shrew started by mistake (I'm not too good with a laptop - lol)
I have other duties to attend to at the moment, but I would really appreciate it if you guys could keep this thread bumped. Could someone please bump the people I listed above too?
Okay, got my fix. I should be okay for an hour or two. :) MAF
I know we've got some good interviews on the radio show. I saw IronJack and The Shrew interviewing Mark Levin and David Horowitz. Gary Aldrich will be doing an interview later for us. I think Mark Levin is still doing the interview now.

Thus the need to live it vicariously through The Shrew and the rest of the FR there!!
...(sigh)...
The place is full of people now and the Free Republic Network booth has been busy. We even have a red, white and blue flag blimp flying overhead, courtesy of abner and her hubby.
One of the first people walking around this morning before the crowds arrived was Dr. Laura. She stopped by briefly, accepted a pen and joked with us. A short while later she signed her books for a long line of fans.
Sorry I have to run, have an errand and typing on this laptop is slow. I'll be back later. Angelwood
Something just isn't right about me having to defend our guy by myself to SUSSA and Badray. I was outnumbered and definitely outsized!
LBGA just promised to upload pictures onight if she can locate her AOL account. lol
MAF too cheap to eat. hehe.
