Americans for Prosperity-RightOnline-Sam Adams Alliance conference in Austin, Texas:

Eric Peterkofsky talking about reaching conservative youths through humor and new media. He creates Newsbusted, the humor arm of Newsbusters.

David Almacy speaking about all the ways to reach people with the conservative message through new media. David blogs at CapitalGig and was the internet guy for President Bush.

Soren Dayton teaching about more new media ideas. He’s a bright guy and blogs and edits at TheNEXTRight.

Kathleen McKinley aka RightWingSparkle, Danny Glover of Eyeblast.tv and the Media Research Center, and Dan Gainor, The Boone Pickens Fellow of the Business and Media Institute of the Media Research Center.


Eric Peterkofsky and Kathleen McKinley have lots of fun. Hey, Conservatives know how to party, too! We proved it.


Eating dinner with some of the most interesting people: John Hawkins of Right Wing News, Danny Glover, Kathleen McKinley, Steve Clouthier, Sean Hackbarth of The American Mind, Dan Gainor, Frank Maenza. (There are a couple guys at the end, who I didn’t get the opportunity to spend time with, if you know them, let me know!)

    “Danny Glover”… that’s hilarious! I know it’s not the same one but still, that name at a Right Wing News gathering is so off.

    Well, Danny is one of the nicest people I met there. I’m sure the man has suffered no end of persecution for sharing that name. Kinda like Michael Bolten from Office Space. “It was a good name until that no-talent ass clown won two Grammys”. And yes, it’s disturbing that I can easily pull quotes from that movie.

    How many people attended this thing? Looks like about 20, to be generous.

    Your conference was so boring even Bob Barr came down to the Netroots Nation event (over 2000 people) to have some fun.

    Kimoco,

    Bob Barr found his home with the Nutroots. And for the record, Snark and Kimoco, this was private dinner with a group of folks not an official meal with the masses.
