Announcing: PUMA CONFERENCE 2008

By Will Bower on July 18, 2008

 

Marriott Wardman Hotel

Washington, D.C.

August 8 – 10, 2008

 

Dear PUMAs,

The 2008 PUMA Conference Committee is ready to ROAR with these incredible conference deals! For the amazing (and we mean that sincerely) price of $250, you will receive the following:

-  Lodging at a FIVE STAR hotel – the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, D.C. for THREE nights (Thursday, Friday and Saturday)

-  Breakfast on Saturday and Sunday.

-  Lunch on Saturday.

-  AND it also includes the price of the conference itself.

Mind boggling, crazy good isn’t it?

Registration will open tomorrow at 12noon PST at:

http://www.pumaconference08.com

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

After the first 250 people register at the $250 price, IT IS GONE.  As we are under tight time constraints with the hotel for numbers and commitment at this time, once you register there will be NO refunds. (Please reread that sentence before you register.)  

1.  YES we have a registration offer if you’re local or not planning to stay at the hotel.  If you would like to attend without the hotel room, the price is $150 (or if you aren’t one of the first 250 to register).

2.  YES we welcome vendors.  If you would like to have a “vendor table,” you may do so (we reserve the right to determine if your organization is a good fit).   We have 30 slots open for $100 per table.

3.  YES we need sponsors.  If you’re interested, please email us immediately at PUMAConference@yahoo.com.

4.  YES you will have an opportunity to volunteer – you can do so during the registration process.

5.  YES we are still working on how folks can participate via the internet (Just Say NO DEAL) and radio.  Details will follow late next week.

Email us with any questions at pumaconference@yahoo.com.

READY?  So are we!  Meet you in D.C!

    Hi everybody. I hope that the Denver convention will be turned into the American equivalent of Tiananmen Square.

    We really need to get the word out.
    Is there anyone specifically that we can contact?

    Did you see the HuffPo letter from Don Fowler & Alice Germond to Hillary supporters? It seems our democratic “demands” are “irritating” and “immature.”

    [From NoQuarter Post 7/19]
    Too bad the latest letter from two top Democratic National Committee officials is not an imaginary missive from a Hollywood comedy. Under those circumstances the b.s. spewed by Don Fowler and Alice Germond might be funny. But they are dead serious in writing the following:

    “It is time for all Democrats, supporters of Senator Clinton and all other contenders for the nomination, to stand with him to secure his election and the election of Democrats at all levels of competition.

    I must confess a bit of fatigue and irritation with people who continue to carp, complain, and criticize the results of the primary and lay down conditions for their support. The Los Angeles Lakers didn’t establish conditions to recognize the Boston Celtics as NBA Champions; Roger Federer did not demand concessions before recognizing that Rafael Nadal defeated him at Wimbledon.

    It is time to act in a mature and resourceful fashion. It’s time to put the primaries behind us. It’s time to support Barack Obama without conditions or demands.”

    It appears to me that Don Fowler and ASlice Germond don’t understand that the Lakers vs Celtics had unbiased referees and on-demand replay. Therefore, the results of the contest were not disputed.

    What’s going to happen to the money raised at this event? Please, please tell me it’s not going to be used for attack ads against Obama. This organization scares me. This is probably the most important election since Bobby ran, and this time we have a chance to win. I again beg you to not mess this up.

    Alecki. In short, contact everyone!

    Leftwing. The money will be going to the hotel.

    Leftwing, what SHOULD scare you is the way in which, despite the largest popular vote in primary history, the candidate who should be the presumptive nominee has been supplanted by one who is inexperienced, Unqualified and Dangerous, whose track record is nonexistent, and who has been crowned by a party by way of disenfranchising its voters and ignoring its own rules. PUMAs are outraged at the bad precedent this sets–in sum, it is fascist and has no place in a representative democracy. Further, a democratic government depends upon an informed electorate, which has pretty much been impossible to do, given the refusal of mainstream media to provide objective commentary and the reporting of fact. Thus, a coalition was formed to work on politcal and media reform in the hope of protecting our democracy. What SHOULD scare you is the lack of information the general public has…what should hearten you is the fact that millions of bright, committed, patriotic people have come together to try and inform the public and prevent either party from dictating to the electorate.
