Any DUers going to the ACLU Convention this weekend?

[Boomer]

This weekend I'm attending the ACLU Member Conference 2006 in Washington DC. I would love the chance to meet up with any DUers who will be there, too.

Drop me an email if you're interested in a mini-gathering.


"Stop the Abuse of Power, Stand Up for Freedom."

1. I wish I was, and I hope you give us a detailed report when

you return. Have fun!

2. Thanks!

I'm really looking forward to hearing the panel with ex-Ambassador Joe Wilson, among others.

"Conversation About Civil Liberties -- Part 1" with Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and ACLU President Nadine Strossen. Moderated by NBC News Correspondent Pete Williams

“Conversation about Civil Liberties -- Part 2” with Tucker Carlson, MSNBC and and Rachel Maddow of Air America . Moderated by ACLU Executive Director Anthony Romero

"Torture, Secrecy and Surveillance: Holding Government Accountable" featuring: the former Ambassador Joe Wilson in a conversation with Anthony Romero as well as ACLU litigator Ann Beeson and "Faces of Surveillance" clients

Mostly, though, I'm just looking forward to being in the company of LIBERALS, and not feeling like a kook because I keep up with political news (unlike my co-workers, who are either apolitical or lean to the right).

3. I had read about this and it does sound great for the most part.

Joe Wilson is an inspired speaker; I hope he shares some Plame 'dirt' with you. And I'd love to hear Rachel Maddow!
Tucker, not so much though I wonder what he'll have to say for himself.
