Paying money to Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck and Ann Coulter.
Hmm. It’s tempting, but…

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks it is kinda gross…
My interpretation to the title of this article was that I was being asked if I wanted to go into a den of a bunch of silver-tongue snakes. However, after reading the article, some of the sessions listed are on subjects I find to be important too.

Dinesh D’Souza vs. Cenk Uygur?

I’m in Pasadena, I’m interested in politics, and I’ve nothing planned next weekend. Even so: I’d never pay money to support this abomination. As others have said: it’s politics as entertainment, involving the legitimization of grifters and frauds, not to mention the sincerely execrable (and then there’s those who manage to be all three - what would I pay to see Dinesh D’Souza opine? Would would I pay not to see that?).
Sure, some of the people involved are great - but the overall endeavor is unworthy.
