This hit piece was probably spoon-fed to Ron Breeding by the Arkansas Times - and given the predictable nature of those folks, expect more of the same.

The bane of the Democrat party. And NPR. And ANSWER.
And we'll need to find a hotel with a bigger ballroom, too.
BTW, are you coming to the ball this time?
To: Pan_Yans Wife; kristinn; Angelwood
Yes. And he accepted.
He and the Capitol Offense band played our ball in 2001, and they were a huge hit. We really wanted them back this year, so we were thrilled that they were available and willing to do it again. Especially after all the heat the MSM heaped on them after their first appearance.
They really are good. The dance floor was packed all night. Kristinn and Angelwood are making sure that we have a much bigger dance floor this time. Right, guys?

Kristinn is the Ball Director, and he and Angelwood are working with Jim Robinson on organizing everything for the W2 Ball. They do have a Ball Committee of sorts, comprised of DC Chapter members who are helping with ideas, some productions and organizational stuff; and Mama Bear is also working on Ball stuff for Jim and Kristinn.
But for announcements of special guests and other information like that, look for that info to come from Kristinn or from Jim Robinson.

Ooo, maybe the band will be kind enough to do "Wade in the Water." That'll really get NPR's pink panties in a bunch.

Look for the MSM to use scare words like "controversial," "troubling" or "disturbing." (The latter two always are related to conservatives)
BTW, is anyone else peeved by the "contribute to Free Republic" headers that brag about zotting and the Viking Kitties? I find that the only truly "controversial," "troubling" and "disturbing" thing around here. Silencing people is a cowardly thing to boast about.

However, the terrorist beheading videos are intolerable. So I'm going to start pointing that people who post links to that obscene propaganda are giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

Some people [warlaord junior grade] don't like my compliment, but those guys are the world's best wedding band. In Philadelphia, in the neighborhoods, there were certain bands that were considered "IT". They had as big a following, stature and recognition locally as bands on the Top Ten List. That's because where ever they played, you could count on having one hell of a good time. Brides would book the wedding around the band's availability rather than the church or the hall.
These guys rock, it's going to be a blast.
