So…what are you doing on September 18-21, 2008?
If your answer is “nothing, why?” then may I suggest that you attend the 2008 Conservative Leadership Conference at the Tuscany Suites Resort in Las Vegas? The event is being co-hosted by Citizen Outreach and Americans for Tax Reform. The Honorary Conference Chairman is Rep. John Shadegg of Arizona.
CLC is a yearly gathering of conservatives and libertarians focused on bridging differences and finding common ground in their mutual desire to limit government – as well as discussing the best political means of achieving that goal.
Your truly (yes, E!!) has been asked to be the Press Liason so I will be hanging around assisting the media (and anyone else in need) all weekend. I’d love to meet any/all of you so please stop by and say Hello if you can.
