You're Invited: D.C. Chapter's 8th Annual White House Correspondents Dinner Freep, Sat. 4/29/06
Friday, April 21, 2006 | Kristinn

Posted on 04/21/2006 5:39:01 AM PDT by kristinn

All FReepers and lurkers in good standing are invited to join the D.C. Chapter of Free Republic at our 8th annual freep of the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday, April 29, 2006 in Washington, D.C.

This is our most fun freep of the year. You never know who in the media and political world you'll meet there. Over the years, we've met and debated the likes of Al Franken, razzed Paul Begala and James Carville, been filmed by Drew Barrymore, cheered on Fox News reporters and freeped the liberal media with humor and serious barbs.

Afterward, we retire to the hotel where the dinner is held and watch it on TV in the bar while we dine and relax with our FRiends.

When: 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday, April29, 2006

Where: Across from the Washington Hilton, 1900 Connecticut Avenue and T Street, NW, Washington D.C.

This is a rain or shine event.

As always, the D.C. Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect. Briefly, they are: No violence, no profanity, no racism, no provocations, obey the law and treat all law enforcement officers with respect.

One of the best times I have ever had was "freeping" the White House Cororespondents Dinner! I strongly urge anyone who can possibly make it to be there!

Kristinn--it's killing me to miss this, too. Hopefully, life is going to slow down one of these days, and I can make it back to DC for some fun time with the DC freepers!

(Remember George Stephanopolos running like crazy to get away from us? I still get hysterical just thinking about it!).

Y'all have fun--and when you see Begala, be sure and tell him he's still not rich or important enough enough to enter Lakeway--LOL!

Maybe you can act as a recruiter and hand out Al Jazeera applications to some of the more traitorous members of the press.

I can't remember which year I was able to come to DC for this, but oh my....it was fabulous....so much fun....and maybe one of the best parts was seeing (and hugging) the DC freepers who do us proud ALL the time.

I love you guys!!!

And to the folks who are able to go this year.....
JUST DO IT!!!

(and you can thank me later, if I convinced you to go)

Have never made one of these but it sure sounds like fun.

Will admit, I'm in love with Kelly O'Donnell, WH correspondent from NBC.
I know, I know, even though she is a lefty.........ahhh....daaa...hmmm. Oh, forget it.

I'll never forget the first of the Bush 2 administration. We all cheered for Ralph Nader. He was smiling from across the street, but sure changed his expression as he got closer. Thanks again Ralph for your votes in Florida.

We'll make it to Phelps FReep but we won't make it the WHC Dinner due to the Olney FReep. Those that go to the Phelps FReep can just take Metro WH, have a quick brewsky and to the WHC Dinner.

I hope you all don't go to "the Hilton" for drinks afterwards.

Since the NFL Draft starts 4/29, you can have a MultiNational Terrorist League(MNTL) Draft for the Reporters that are most supportive of the various terrorist nations or terrorist organizations and have their profiles printed up on cards in a Mock Draft.

With their first pick, Al Qaeda selects...
