From the Hillary for President website:
Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, Katharine McPhee and Caroline Rhea to Join Hillary at Launch of Club 44
Event to Kick-Off Efforts to Reach Out to Young Women
Hillary for President announced that 10-time Grammy winner, Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, and American Idol finalist, Katharine McPhee, will perform for Hillary Clinton and a crowd of thousands at the kick-off of Club 44 in Washington, DC on June 6, 2007. Actress and comedian, Caroline Rhea, will serve as the emcee at this family-friendly event.
Club 44 is the campaign's effort to identify and mobilize young women voters who support Hillary Clinton for president. According to a study by the Center for Information & Research on Civic Learning & Engagement (CIRCLE), in 2004, 12.5 million women between ages 18-24 were eligible to vote.
"Young women can play a major role in deciding who our next president is," said McPhee. "It's important for all of us to get involved in the political process, and I'm happy to do my part by being part of this great event and performing for our next president, Hillary Clinton."
Other notable women will also be present at the event including: Senator Barbara Mikulski, Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs-Jones, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, former vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro, tennis legend Billie Jean King, human rights activist Dolores Huerta, and EMILY'S List president and Club 44 co-emcee, Ellen Malcolm.
"I am a huge fan of the women participating in this event and am excited to be part of this special evening," said Edmonds.
In addition to the live musical performances, Caroline Rhea will entertain the crowd with her signature wit and comedy. "I'm thrilled to be sharing the stage with all these amazing women," said Rhea. "This country is ready for change and Hillary is ready to lead as the next president."
The event is expected to take on a carnival theme with a moon bounce, food vendors, and other fun activities for the whole family. Local choirs and marching bands will also perform at the event and the campaign is expected to raffle off several prizes including a dinner with Hillary Clinton.
"I am honored to have Kenny 'Babyface' Edmonds, Katharine McPhee, Caroline Rhea, and all the other amazing women support me at the launch of Club 44," said Hillary Clinton. "I believe this presidential election is about taking our country in a new direction, and I have the experience to get this country back on the right track. I am confident that women will be at the forefront of our campaign to create real change in America."
Kid in backseat says: I didn't instigate anything.
Dad: I saw you poke her with the picture.
Kid: Yeah, but how did that pic instigate anything?
Dad: That's it! No amusement park! I'm turning the car around to head home. Don't say anything more or I'll be forced to drive the car towards the cliff and jump out just before it goes over.
BobJ knows exactly what he is doing. He repeatedly tosses comments into threads which are artfully designed to insult either the efforts of the DC Chapter or individuals in the DC Chapter. You can go through my comments and see that I haven't insulted or otherwise badmouthed BobJ or the now defunct Network. When I comment to him, it's in response to repeated digs at us or our efforts. He then acts indignant that someone would have the audacity to accuse him, number 39 (or whatever) of being a bomb-thrower. The chip he carries has rounded his shoulder.
It would be better to ignore him, but I get tired of reading his unprovoked insults.
CIRCULAR FIRING SQUAD!
That is the best line from this entire “battle”.
An apropos comment in this engagement, although misapplied by Bill and apparently misunderstood by you as well? Correct me if I am wrong.
I caught it immediately (as well as probably most readers of this thread) but thought I would let it go without correction because I got a chuckle out of it.
I don't blame you for sticking up for your friends, I would probably think less of you if you did not. But don't set yourself up as some fair and balanced judge when in fact you have now proven yourself to be a biased and partisan advocate of a bunch of children who cannot handle the slightest criticism, constructive or otherwise, and lash out in fits of hysteria when confronted with same.
You remind of the parent who sits quietly smiling as their children scream and throw food all over the floor of a restaurant...then leave the mess for someone else to clean up.
LOL !!
That's absolute bullshit Bob. I proposed something which you did not accept. In fact you came back with a smarmy "I'll tell how it's going to be" type reply which in no way reflects what you say above.
If you're going to toss blame around, get the facts in order.
Hehehe...that's funny Bob.
Well, after all the fighting that went on during this thread, I would be interested in knowing how the event went.
Doug,
I went to another Walter Reed FReep Friday. Between that, various family business, and trying to stem the shooting in the circular firing squad on this thread, I’m slow as usual finishing the report.
In the meantime, a related FR thread is here, followed by the photo album:
