Scenes from the Renaissance

Patriots from all over Orange County gathered this weekend in Hollywood to honor the nation's top conservative filmmakers. I couldn't make it, but these photos from the American Film Renaissance website serve as proof that a good time was had by all.


Nobody parties harder than the good folks at Eagle Forum, and their Cathie Adams lived up to everyone's expectations.


Once Cathy worked the crowd up into a wild, traditional values frenzy, Michael Medved slew them with humorous anecdotes about his relationship with Jack Abramoff (whom he barely knows having only had dinner with him a few times when Medved was a film critic and Abramoff, a movie producer, and again later, when they were both serving as board members for Toward Tradition).

BTW, this might be a good time for all of us to remind ourselves that Mr. Medved is not a homosexual.


I can't improve upon AFR's caption for this photo: "Reception Guest's [sic] enjoy Medved's speech."


Kfir Alfia donates two dollars to the Wounded Warrior Project in honor of those who sacrificed their limbs so he could market his Protest Warrior line of merchandise.

General, Sir: I'm sorry, but every time I look at that guy in the starry hat, he seems to be not so much dozing off as engaging in a Rapturous interlude with his little soldier. Could Mr. Medved be that motivational a speaker, Sir?
