We sadly couldn't make it to the Western Conservative Political Union Action Conference this weekend at the Radisson in Newport Beach. Luckily, conservative filmmaker and former KFI blabber John Ziegler was on hand to film the top drama of the conference: his own antics.
When David Foster Wallaceprofiled Ziegler in 2005 for the Atlantic, my takeaway was that Ziegler doesn't really get along with other human beings very well. He recently got arrested for making trouble at a Katie Couric appearance at USC. And, lo and behold, this weekend in Newport, he got into a confrontation with CPAC chairman David Keene and was kicked out by WCPAC organizer Jim Lacy.
All three videos of Ziegler's saga are posted onRed County, but here's the one where things start to get dicey:
Was the banquet table at the end of the Part 2 of 3 video some sort of Wab Bait? Did any conservatives try to prove their bonafides by vandalizing the somebrero section?
Thanks for that. It really helped clear up my misconception of conservatives as a bunch of combative, assholish white guys with bad haircuts.
given all the vicious slurs sarah palin had to endure, its good that someone is defending her - even if its john ziegler.
John Ziegler is perhaps the biggest non-anti-Semitic slimeball to ever disgrace Southern California airwaves. And he has a victim complex that would make Rush Limbaugh blush.
