That's a great joke.

I have enjoyed the spectacle of name speakers haranguing over half-empty halls since CPAC began this year. Oh, how the mighty have fallen. But we should keep the pressure going until CPAC, in the words of Grover Norquist, is small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Oh, by all means quote Grover on that, the greediest of the greedy bastards. Well, too much competition to say for sure..

Seeing you fall out of your chair -- for all of us that you called a 'lefty', 'moron' ,' imbecile'... it was a beautiful sight that we'll always remember, and I've got the tape!

Chump, without doubt, wins the unfunniest joke of the year award for his foray into musical comedy. Now what is the money-making angle there? There has to be one for the breathless horde waiting to give their last dime to the Madoff for the masses. BYW, love Mike Murphy’s description, but where was Orban.

That Trump has gone "full insurrection" and taken the GOP now with him is very dangerous news.

Mike Murphy's description of the CPAC conference reminded me of a book my father owned about Japanese soldiers hiding out in caves on Pacific islands years after the surrender of Japan. I no longer recall the title, much less the author, of that book. I think it could have been about New Guinea but there appear to have been quite a few on various islands, a few of whom didn't show up until circa 1973-74! This is a very interesting article: https://mikedashhistory.com/2015/09/15/final-straggler-the-japanese-soldier-who-outlasted-hiroo-onoda/
