Today, on the Ed Morrissey Show (3 pm ET), I’ll be broadcasting live from the Defending the American Dream Summit, hosted by Americans for Prosperity Foundation in Washington DC! We’ll take a look at the past week with Duane “Generalissimo” Patterson of the Hugh Hewitt Show. I’m celebrating my six-year blogiversary with good friends, like Duane, Mary Katharine Ham, Kerry Picket, and others that will appear on the show today. Duane and I will also talk about the big stories of the week. All of this and more — and stay tuned for a preview of tonight’s Hugh Hewitt Show.

Now you can join the conversation in the chat room! Be sure to register at Ustream to participate in our raucous live-chat sessions.

Jazz Shaw of The Moderate Voice and The Monster moderate the chat, and we have Troll Gun Trivia Contest running before the show, for those who get there early — and are registered!
