TPM:
Miller signed on as a speaker to help participants "sharpen and edify one another" ("Sharpen and edify one another?" Does anybody else feel dirty after reading that?)
from August 26th to September 2nd, and maybe even to act as resident Alaska expert. "Whom would you most like as personal [sic] Alaska tour guide?" World Net Daily asks. (Answer: "Just about ANYBODY else you could think of!")
In between classes, "you will relax and marvel at the magnificence of God's creation, while we sail aboard the five-star Celebrity Millennium. All of this, and at an incredibly low starting price."The cheapest cabins will set you back about $750, plus $383 in taxes and fees (not including airfare).Aside from Miller, most of the speakers are about what you'd expect from World Net Daily, which continues to be the lead purveyor of birther conspiracy theories even in the weeks after Obama released his long-form birth certificate. Joseph Farah, who founded WND and his wife Elizabeth Farah are listed, as well as birther Alan Keyes, birther author Jerome Corsi, and birthermercial producer Gary Kreep. Former Saturday Night Live cast member Victoria Jackson, who once led a group of Tea Partiers in a song called "There's A Communist Living In The White House," will also be speaking. Holy crap! I have heard the term "ship of fools" a number of times, I just have never actually seen on before!
Here check out how they describe Miller's trouncing in his bio blurb:
Joe Miller shocked the political world on August 24, 2010 when he, according to media accounts, came out of nowhere to defeat incumbent Senator Lisa Murkowski in the Alaskan Republican Primary. He then entered into a contentious three-way general election where multi-billion dollar native corporations, along with the political establishment, conspired to defeat this Tea Party backed candidateNotice how he blames his defeat on giant "corporations" and the "political establishment" instead of on the "freaked out Alaskan voters" who ran to the polls to make sure he would NEVER get anywhere near Washington D.C..
Am I evil for thinking that this would be a great time for an iceberg?
