Join Steyn, Jonah, and the NR Gang

Breaking News

November 4, 2013

Dear National Review Friend,

I have two requests, and will share with you an interesting story or three from today's NRO.

Request Number One: If you live in the Boston area, or if you are going to be in Boston on November 20th, and if you love NR, and if you believe it essential to help NR survive, then join us—"us" being Mark Steyn, Jonah Goldberg, Kevin Williamson, Jay Nordlinger, and Jim Geraghty—at the Harpoon Brewery from 6pm to 8pm.

What a fantastic lineup. Throw in ale, beer, cider, pretzels, heavy hors d'oeuvres, wit, wisdom, and heck, maybe even some drinking songs, what you've got is a great evening. For more information about our Big Beantown Benefit Bash, visit here.

Request Number Two: Take a vacation! Let me suggest a five-night vacation . . . on a cruise to Bermuda . . . with a couple of hundred other conservatives!

I'm talking about the NR 2014 Bermuda Cruise, scheduled for May 17-22 on Royal Caribbean Line's beautiful Explorer of the Seas, and leaving conveniently from (and returning to) Cape Liberty, New Jersey. Packed with great conservative speakers, and featuring an itinerary and program of exclusives that will knock your Bermuda knee-high socks off, this is the must trip for those of you who have always wanted to sail on an NR Cruise.

This is the perfect one for you to test-drive. Five nights, low cost, easy travel, mega-tons of fun—hey, you've got to come. For complete information please visit www.nrcruise.com

OK, let's follow these two blatant merchandizing pitches with a couple of NRO must read suggestions.

First, today on the world's greatest conservative website you'll find David Horowitz's essay, "Uniting the Right," on how freedom is the idea that can bring our fractious party together.

Next, Charlie Cooke has a very troubling article titled "Puppycide" on how too many dogs are being shot by police officers. If you are dubious as to whether this is something that merits conservative commentary

And after you've polished off those, check out Jonah Goldberg's Corner post—"Whittaker Chambers is to Blame for the Tea Party?" It's a great read and a great analysis of liberal clap-trap.

OK, see you in Boston, see you in Bermuda, and see you on NRO!

Best,

Jack Fowler
