Dear Media Credential Applicant:

Thank you for your interest in covering the 2008 Republican National Convention and applying for Special Press Credentials.

This letter is to inform you that Boots & Sabers has been approved to receive one (1) Special Press Credential for the purpose of covering the convention.

The assigned credential is to be used only by the person(s) for whom it was requested. Those persons include the following:

  * Owen Robinson

This credential allows access to the 200 Level of the Xcel Energy Center as well as access to the Media Center, Press Conference Room and Filing Center.  This credential does not provide access to any broadcast position, camera stand or writing press stand, nor does it provide access to the delegate floor.

You will be sent further instructions via e-mail for picking up your credentials.  No credentials will be mailed.

Sean Hackbarth at The American Mind also received credentials. 

1. So I take it that you’re going to the Convention, eh?

2. Congratulations!  Hope that guy who tried to cash that multi-million dollar check that he wrote himself doesn’t print out this post and try to use it to get into the convention.

8. Congratulations. So, are you part of the mainstream media, the punditocracy, or the vast right wing conspiracy?

11. How cool! The trick will be finding affordable lodging. I think Pawlenty will not let you sleep in his office.
