The John Locke Foundation & The Moore County Republican Men's Club
Cordially invites you to An Evening with the John Locke Foundation
Thursday, March 27, 2008, 6:00 - 8:00 PM at the Country Club of North Carolina, 1600 Morganton Rd, Pinehurst, NC 28374. Price: This event is free and open to the public.
The John Locke Foundation, North Carolina’s premiere public policy think tank, invites you to join us for “An Evening with the JLF” to learn more about the groundbreaking research, investigative reporting and media influence for which the Foundation has become nationally recognized. Come meet our panelists, John Locke Foundation President and NC Spin panelist John Hood, Executive Vice President Kory Swanson, Vice President for Development Chad Adams, and Outreach Vice President Becki Gray.
Groundbreaking research? These guys really crack me up.
If you can stand being in the room with all the boys from the Moore County Republican Men's Hair Club, you can get your invitation here. And remember, there's no cost to attend. In keeping with the fundamentals of free-market extremism, you'll be paying exactly what the evening is worth.
Comments
I'm sorry, I think I'll be busy that night.
My patchouli and peace signs would give me away for what I am, but I'll pass this along to some of our less radical members who can "pass". Perhaps they'll give us a report.

I can't believe that John Hood has made arrangements to meet at the Moose Club with Republicans to discuss the video poker gaming machines.

James, you left out the rest of the invite, that there will be pleanty of parking for all the horse and buggies.

Will there be a sign across the top of the door with
'Abandon hope all ye who enter here' written in drippy, red letters?
My local paper carries JLF columns once or twice a month. I would like to see each column followed by the following ...
Fron 2 Corinthians:
"For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."
Such might have an effect on the reading public of my home county.
Person County Democrats
I actively oppose gerrymandering. Do you?
Details James
James, you left out the rest of the details.
Where is the Cross Burning being held after the business meeting?
Ha ha ha!
Probably in my front yard, HLW. This is in my neck of the woods.
I'm actually going to let some of our more conservative looking Dems know about this and see if they'll report back to me.
I suspect that Art Pope is sending the circus to my town because Joe Boylan has two primary opponents this year. Lane Toomey, who writes a lot of letters to the editor, and Jamie Boles, who everyone knows because he is the world's best funeral director. (Seriously - Jamie is a nice guy. And everyone knows him. If I weren't vested in the Democratic Party, I'd go vote for him.)

Why are they against cloning?
It seems like they would like cloning.
They could reproduce Jesse Helms.
sssshhhhh

Be careful with your friends
They might be required to have a frontal lobotomy before they can enter.
Think tank or stink tank?
Are they a think tank, or a stink tank?
Frankly, I think they are full of shit.
In case you're attending the JLF bash
Here's an updated program guide:
I wonder............................
Why do all those pictures look like Mug shots?
:)
Hadn't thought of that. These are all from their own websites.
The only thing you can't see are the strings.
So Hood is still their president
Good to know. I'll remove a parenthetical question mark from my "consider your sources" blog post.

If it were here in Raleigh, I'd be there
FREE? It's at the frickin' country club and it's free? God that would be fun. Don't get me wrong -- I'd behave. I'd be all dressed up, too, would wash my hair and maybe even blow-dry it for the occasion. Wouldn't lie to anyone, wouldn't say things I didn't mean.
I almost never do.
But I would have a great time~

It's not that unusual for events to be held there.
I've attended quite a few. It tends to bring out the socialist in me astonishingly fast.

What's unusual
is me knowing about *this* event there.
It actually ain't about the setting; it's the presumptive list of attendees~ That's what I meant about having fun.
