Whew….. The past two days have been incredibly exciting. Sunday began with an amazing FREE breakfast in the hotel lobby. After the thirty minute rail ride to downtown Minneapolis we encountered a scheduled protest parade sponsored by Ron Paul supporters. These people have still not figured out one thing. It is over. Give it up already!!! After this very pointless experience we arrived at the Minneapolis Convention Center for the screening of the new David Zucker film, An American Carol. The pre-party included free food and entertainment by Lee Greenwood. Experiencing “God Bless the USA” live was a moment I will always remember. I recorded this video so that you all at home can too (turn the volume down a bit and it will sound better).
After picking up free drinks, popcorn, and candy we entered the theater to view the film. Only one word can describe this Michael Moore spoof: hilarious. We laughed from the opening to the closing credits. This film should be a part of any conservative’s curriculum. Nothing could better satisfy my anger at the man who called Gustav’s impact on the RNC an act of God than a movie that made him look like a complete idiot. Immediately after the film we went to the delegate welcome party. The incredible exhibits hosted by Civic Fest and the bag of free goodies finished off this incredible day.
Thinking that nothing could top the previous day, I slowly made my way down to the lobby. The first affair of the day, a Young Republican sponsored event at the Hard Rock Cafe, turned out to be excellent. After hearing a few advocates of voter registration, a surprise visitor emerged from the smoky kitchen. I was taken aback when I realized that I was standing a mere ten feet from none other than Mike Huckabee. I have been a huge fan of the Huck for a while now and was glad to hear him speak firsthand. Hurriedly, we hopped on the GOP express and headed toward the Xcel Center in St. Paul. Here's a shot from the rafters.

Recent events have obviously toned down the mood in the Twin Cities, but speeches by Laura Bush and Cindy McCain helped to revitalize the crowd. Gustav hung heavily on everybody’s mind and video messages from each of the Gulf Coast governors helped to ease minds and calm fears. Now back at the hotel we a resting and preparing for the next chain of events.

Moore said that in response to the remarks by Dr. James Dobson. Did you mention Dobson's statement?
Can we be fair and factual?
Since when has Michael Moore been fair and factual?
