The One Day a Year Congressmen Can Chew My Ear

By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  March 4th, 2013 at 09:11 AM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

Yes, believe it or not, one day a year I consent to make myself available to Republicans in congress without a bodyguard.

It’s that time again — the congressional reception our parent company, Eagle Publishing, Inc., holds each year.

Just a reminder to members of Congress and their staff that tomorrow night at the fine offices of Eagle Publishing, Inc. at 1 Massachusetts Avenue, we will have our annual reception. It’s a who’s who of conservative congressmen who show up and a few folks with bones to pick with me.

I’ll be there until Delta saves me with a timely exit back to Georgia.

The reception is from 6pm to 8pm tomorrow evening at the offices of Eagle Publishing, Inc. You can email me at erick@redstate.com if you need details to RSVP. All the Republicans in Congress are welcome to attend and we’d love to have you.

    In the future, will you also hold a reception for the Conservative Party Congresspeople?

    Promise you’ll tell us everything that’s said by everyone — even “off the record” — who drops by to see you, Erick? Hmmm. Would love to be a fly on the wall during your meetings.

    I would if it were to appear in a reputable source.

    …except that an MRAP is Not a Tank by any stretch of the imagination.
    If you’re gonna call an apple a medium-sized watermelon, at least have the courtesy to give it, it’s given name.
    MRAPs are virtually lying around doing zilch and in fact some types were built and parked, never, ever being used, just like M-113 personnel carriers and Cadillac Gauge armored cars were utilized. That they were gonna be re-cycled in this manner was a certainty.
    Some here might think I’m picking nits here but if you’re going to inform the populace, get the basic terminology correct, please?
    No cannons, no tracks, no Chobham Armor or glacis plates, Not a Tank. Period.

    And…what does Mr. Brennan have to say about drones on US soil with US citizens?

    No, what’s all that about “I can only think of one reason…. Are our days numbered?”
