Many of us will be headed to Atlanta today for our first RedState Gathering.
Tonight, we’ll hear from Roy Blunt, Pat Toomey, Jim DeMint, and Rick Perry. Then we’ll watch a special presentation of John Ziegler’s new movie.
Tomorrow, Tom Price, Karen Handel, a super secret special guest, Ken Cuccinelli, Michael Williams, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, and Nikki Haley join us.
We’re also going to do two workshops. One will be on becoming better online activists and the other on being better offline activists.
250 activists from across the country will be coming. And we’re already planning for next year.
Registration is closed for this year, but you may want to start planning for next year. Same weekend. Same place. Even better.

I think I'm registered
Finrod (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 11:08AM EST (link)I was trying to get registered yesterday (last minute, I know, but my July has been exceedingly hectic); I couldn’t get it to work from my browser so my gf registered me, then she tried to register but it wouldn’t let her register. Mostly I was registering her so that she could attend events if she wanted to, in any case. I guess we can clear this up later this afternoon.
Let’s get down to brass tacks here. How much for the ape?
Hostile takeover this weekend...

Atlanta needs the rain
Finrod (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 3:00PM EST (link)Georgia is just starting to come out of its second major drought of this decade. Plus with the bonehead federal judge threatening to take away Lake Lanier for drinking water, Atlanta needs all the water it can get.

At least we're not in the shape
blooch Friday, July 31st at 3:14PM EST (link)CA’s Central Valley is in. Georgia needs some more reservoirs that are not run by the Army Corps. We’re not having much luck in our fight with FL & AL, and now we’re about to pick a fight with TN over some Tennessee river water. Let it rain!

Yeah, if Georgia's north border was just a *bit* further north
Finrod (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 3:34PM EST (link)We would then have part of the Tennessee River in Georgia, in which case I’m sure a pipeline from there to Atlanta would have been built already.
Pull up your favorite mapping software sometime and look at where the Georgia/Alabama/Tennessee borders meet (or just follow this google maps link); the Georgia border is maybe 200 feet from the river.

EvanWeeks (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 3:49PM EST (link)Went to North Hall High School, in fact. I went home last year to visit my parents, and the lake was pitifully low. I mentioned it and that’s when I heard about the drought and the Army Corps of Engineers being such boneheads with the water. All over some so-called endangered species further downstream, what a crock.
