Re post 3...the more I think about it, it was at the “Count the Whitehouse Silverware” party, GWB”s first inaugural.
I was at both but missed him, I remember James and Joel on WABC. I was sitting at the table next to Mark Levin, Jim Robinson, Connie Hair and Lucy Goldberg and son at the Free Congress dinner 1999. I had a nice talk with Mark after the dinner Steve Forbes was the speaker.
