Thursday, February 25, 2009 was day # 2 of the CPAC trip but the most important thing is that it was the opening day for the 2009 CPAC conference. The welcome to CPAC address was by David A. Keene who is the Chairman of the American Conservative Union. His speech was very uplifting and very motivating.
The next speaker to follow was Representative Paul Ryan who is from Wisconsin who had a very positive speech and gave the audience a detailed look at what is really going on here in Washington. During lunch, I attended the Conservatism 2.o Conference that was hosted by Pajamas TV. The guest panel included Stephen Green, Evan Coyne Maloney, Deroy Murdock, Roger Simon, and Joe Wurzelbacher (Joe the Plumber). This was a very good discussion and had some funny moments.
In the afternoon, I went to hear Mike Huckabee speak and he was awesome and I later got to meet him at a book signing. In the late afternoon some of our group including me went to hear several very well known news media host that discussed the "Fairness Doctrine" the speakers included Joe Scarborough, Roger Hedgecock, and Tucker Carlson who by the way was not afraid to speak what he thought and even encouraged the audience to participate. Getting to meet Mike Huckabee was indeed the highlight of the day for many in attendance at the CPAC conference.
