Well, the title of my post says it all. Today the Texas Congressman and former Presidential candidate (1988 and 2008) spoke at CPAC. This is the 3rd time I've seen him at CPAC, and I think it was one of his more effective speeches. His warnings were dismissed and he was treated as a loon during the 2008 election, but since then he has been taken more seriously, becoming a regular on cable news networks talking about the financial meltdown.
Another highlight of today was a tour of the White House. Derek and I stopped for a little photo-op. Enjoy.
During the panel of young conservatives, I felt very embarrassed after the outburst from Ryan Sorba, who denounced CPAC for including GOPride (a gay conservative group). It was in poor taste and was a very narrow minded view. The purpose of CPAC is to exchange ideas between conservatives, even if you don't like all the ideas there.
In reference to yesterday's photo of me at the NRA booth, it appears the liberal bloggers are having fun with me.
