You Missed The Preview Screening

So last night while you were blogging ... or reading blogs ... in your pajamas, Hollywood and DC were converging in a glitzy preview screening of Commander in Chief, the Gina Davis woman-as-president show premiering soon on ABC.

Who was there? Well, it just might give you an idea about Pres. Gina's politics. How about Gloria Steinem and Arianna Huffington as a couple of the headliners in a to-do all put together by Marie Wilson, founder of the White House Project, an allegedly nonpartisan group dedicated to electing a woman president.

I say "allegedly" because of the who's who on its Board and Advisory Board:
  • Arianna Huffington
  • Kitty Koleman, who claims she "saved" Doe v. Wade when she argued Planned Parenthood v. Casey before the Supreme Court
  • Gara LaMarche, who runs George Soros' Open Society Institute
  • Zina Pierre, a Clintonista who now runs a DC lobbying firm
  • Rev. Dr. Katherine Ragsdale, a pro-abortion Episcoplian priest
  • Chris Wilson, of the Friends of Hillary Finance Committee
  • Donna Brazile of the DNC
  • Former Clinton press secretary Dee Dee Myers
  • Elanore Clift, who's identified as a pundit
  • Pat Mitchell, CEO of PBS
And, of course, the show is on ABC.

So I guess you didn't miss much when they didn't invite you to the big preview.
