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
Well, FRN Radio just interviewed Mark Levin from Landmark Legal Foundation, Edmund Pope - a retired US Navy Captain imprisoned in Russia during the previous administration - very interesting interview. Ironjack just interviewed David Horowitz and Karen Kerigan of Small Business Survival Committee.
We are busy. LurkerNoMore!, Abner, and Exit148 have been holding down the booth and keeping everyone busy. Eternal Vigilance is talking with Dan from Michigan in the booth. Glaswegian is wowing the ladies with his Scottish Accent and Interesting Times and Nick Danger are talking with the hoi polloi. Kristinn and Angelwood are representing the DC Chapter and all hands are busy representing FRN.
If the rest of CPAC goes this well it will be a huge success.
You have started something that is creating waves throughout the Conservative world and the ripples will tsunami onto the shores of liberal land with devastating effect.
Regards,
TS
But I do enjoy the updates.
And thanks for keeping us informed!!
Here is the balloon.
Can't wait to hear all the interviews. I'll be in hovering mode tonight and the next couple days reading these threads and listening to the programs on FRadio.
President Bush asked us to "roll", and that's what Free Republic Network is doing! Way to go, guys and dolls!

The FR booth is getting great action, and I talked to lots of folks who greatly appreciate all of the work that FReepers do...their comments were enlightening, and enheartening.
Little Schuyler's singing last night was phenomenal! She was so bold...not shy in the least...and what a tremendous voice!! What a fantastic talent!!
Of course...she's a FReeper kid!

Okay, this isn't really CPAC info, but Batman (Adam West) just walked past me to get on the elevator. lol. He's not at CPAC, just happened to be here.
Dr. Laura is doing her radio show from here (CPAC). We have 3 really good interviews so far and probably some more, but I'm not keeping track of them. I know IronJack interviewed David Horowitz for an hour, then Mark Levin and Gary Aldrich. MAF
Today I was able to thank Ms. Katherine Harris "for defending the Constitution," something I had promised to do back in November 2000.
The remark was made during Q&A after Ms. Harris' speech on Election Reform in Florida.
I asked Ms. Harris about electoral reform Nationally, and what the prospects were for routing out election fraud and addressing it to reduce the prospects of a Florida-like scenario developing elsewhere - particulary since the demonflop seizure of the Senate has put the matter more or less off of the radar screen. Her response, coupled with a pollster (not associated), focused on legislation being sponsored by Sen. Dodd (D-CT) that would set up a whole new bureaucracy, and how this was a bad thing, and that true reform would encourage state solutions.
