Delaware Jefferson Jackson Dinner

Delaware’s Democratic Party has its annual fundraiser on Tuesday, November 10 at the Chase Center in Wilmington. (Tickets available here) I believe an almost-full contingent of your friendly neighborhood bloggers will be there. Guess who is going to be the keynote speaker? (C’mon take a guess first, before clicking the link.)

    So, UI, this will be your second evening this year with the former President — didn’t you see him in Pittsburg in August? People are going to start to talk. ;o)

    Onward!

    Can you buy two tickets? the form seems to donate as much as you want but it doesn’t say if you get an additional tickets. Or do I have to go in again and fill out the form again for a second ticket…

    Once again, Democrats mark their heritage of racism and oppression of blacks by celebrating the legacy of two racist slave owners.

    Unless, of course, you guys are celebrating George Jefferson and Jesse Jackson.

    But even then, that would be marking the Democrat stereotype of what real, hard-working blacks are really like.

    Anon,

    I did it last year. YOu put how much you’re donating. The amount should equal the number of tickets. Then, in the note field, put how many tickets you’re ordering.

    Answer from the Democratic party:

    I know it’s not the clearest thing in the world. If you put in $90 and select the Jefferson-Jackson dinner option, we’ll send you two tickets; three tickets if you put in $135 we will send you 3, etc.

    Again, the blatant prejudice against Southern Delawareans raises its ugly head. We are forced now to travel the length of the state for both of the most important Democrat functions: JJ Dinner AND Drinking Liberally.

    I think Sussex should secede from Delaware. After all, we have the great beaches and the hot co-eds during the summer.

    I’m going to venture a guess that there will end up being non-Dems in attendance now and I am serious. It’s a big deal for those who aren’t so partisan that a Prez or former Prez actually spends time here. They (the non-Dems), of course, will be begging for DADT-style anonymity! 😛

    You also had a drinking liberally, lest you forget.
    Hmm…wondering what he did while in attendance that caused him to forget. How was your head the next day, Dave? 😉

    Smitty, the next Drinking Liberally is on 29 October at the Homegrown Cafe.

    A prize for the best costume!

    Sweet! I’ve bagged this honor before…except it was in March, and I all I did was show up to work…and I didn’t have a costume on. Waaaaiiiiit a minute…

    Indeed I will be attending.

    Let the record show that Delaware’s senior senator voted with the good guys yesterday on the hotly contested “Doc Fix” amendment yesterday.
