Your master of ceremonies, the right hate-filled, David Horowitz
David Horowitz has Clinton envy. He must’ve gotten jealous seeing the political spotlight on Bill Clinton’s Renaissance Weekend concept. So he decided to start a hard right version which he creatively named Restoration Weekend. One wonders what Horowitz wants to “restore”–the monarchy, Ronald Reagan’s presidency? Well, thanks to Diane Paul, one of my loyal readers, I’m bringing to you the program and speaker list for this not to be missed right wing zoo. If you’re going, head for the Boca Raton Resort & Club on November 11, 2004. Shouldn’t we liberals and left wing sluts show up and give them something they can really hate?
Oh, and for a cool $20K, you can become a Platinum sponsor and enjoy these benefits:
Platinum Level – $20,000

Can’t wait to try that “spa experience!”
You’ll enjoy a song and a dance and maybe even the old Texas two step at Restoration Weekend!
Here’s who and what you’ll hear:
* For those of you who couldn’t get enough of Zell Miller’s ranting at the RNC, get your fill here.
* For those who think that candidates should be able to spend unlimited amounts of money on their campaigns, come hear Mitch McConnell.
* And if you want to hear a washed up actor who made the mistake of thinking he could carry the cast of a Shakespeare revival on Broadway, there’s Kelsey Grammar.
* If you want to hear more about what Dick Morris whispered to the pros in bed, hear him here.
* And if you love to hear a blond intellectual bimbo spout hate at the 52% of her fellow citizens who voted against her candidate in 2000, Ann Coulter’s your girl.
* If you want to hear which country Bill Kristol’s going to advocate invading during the next Republican presidency, you better come hear him here.
* If you want to see a great villain from the James Bond film series, then you’ve got to come to see Robert Davi.
* If you’ve ever wondered why Daniel Pipes hates most Arabs (except the few “good ones”), then maybe he’ll explain himself here.
* If you want to discover how Soviet tyranny can turn a heroic Soviet refusenik into an Arab hater, Natan Sharansky may tell you here.
* And if you want to hear David Horowitz explain how a leader of the New Left can be traumatized by a horrible political murder and turned into a ranting liberal-bater, you’ll get your chance here.
* And what the hell is Christopher Hitchens doing on this speaker list? Either he’s abandoning his former progressive roots or he’s tangling with the enemy. What a waste. And why would they want him to speak unless they wanted to use him as window dressing to say to their members: “see, we’re not afraid of hearing what ‘the enemy’ has to say.” Or they believe they can gradually convert him to their cause.
We’ve even got an Asian woman with a Jewish last name–Michelle Malkin–at our conference!
It’s really a full panoply of hate on display for Restoration Weekend. My only regret (and it’s a big one) is that Rush Limbaugh’s nowhere to be found on this list. Perhaps he had a prior commitment to attend a weekend support group for reformed druggies instead?

eeuuwwww . . . ick.
Snarf! That made me laugh.
Kelsey Grammer? Frasier?
Just plain nasty and smearing insults with no corroboration
Who could the mysterious “Passing Through” be? Don’t you just love it when folks hide their identity with a nickname? What are they afraid of?
I’m so pleased when I get a rise out of David Horowitz’s friends (“just plain nasty & smearing…”). BTW, twit, you don’t seem to realize that this post was satire and as such not a ‘factual’ piece. Though all the details about the weekend are certainly factual since they were lifted directly from the restoration weekend website.
Ugh, Michelle Malkin, Ann Coulter and Tammy Bruce? All in one room? How thouroughly sickening. I can hear their perimenopausal yawls as I am writing this…
Now, now right hater-baiter. Not nice to use ad hominem attacks. I surely hate them as much as you. But menopause has nothing to do with it. Besides, all women, left AND right, are menopausal or will be one day. BTW, what’s “perimenopausal?” Did you mean “premenopausal?”
