The Seattle chapter of Drinking Liberally meets tonight (and every Tuesday), 8PM at the Montlake Ale House, 2307 24th Avenue E. (I’ll be leaving early, so come by early if you want to say hello.)
Tonight is “Dine for Darfur” night around town; the Montlake Ale House, along with dozens of other restaurants in Seattle, will donate 25% of their proceeds to Mercy Corps. So drink up. It’s for a good cause.
Also, if you’ve been to the Ale House recently, you may have noticed some politically tinged paintings on display from local artist Mary K. Johnson. She’ll be on hand to mingle and take questions about her work.
Not in Seattle? Liberals will also be drinking tonight in the Tri-Cities. A full listing of Washington’s eleven Drinking Liberally chapters is available here.
Fix those links, Goldy!
I’ll be on hand to break bread with my favorite folks on the other side of the political spectrum. And Goldy too!
re 2: Are you Hugh Beaumont?
The righties are all for eliminating the terror in Iraq and building a democracy there – but not in Darfur. Why? Could it be no oil in Darfur? Or is it that the blacks in Darfur don’t deserve consideration by the right?
Stupid–
Like Clinton did in Somalia & Rwanda??
Roger Rabbit slept through DL tonight — it’s my nappy time!!!
As you probably know, rabbits are nocturnal and sleep during the day. =:)
@2 No, just another GOP partisan pretending to be an objective journalist.
@5 I don’t recall hearing any groundswell of Republicans calling for intervention in Somalia or Rwanda.
If Clinton defended the U.S. against invasion, the rightys would be against it, just because he’s Clinton.
Impressed:
I had thought that you were so distressed by this board that you had decided to leave. How fortunate for us that you have demonstrated the fortitude to remain and instruct us lesser beings. We rejoice and revel in your pearls of wisdom.
Lessee…Bush has a hissy fit about Nancy Pelosi going to Syria without his royal permission, then about as she’s arriving Iran lets the British sailors go home.
I’m not sure what cause-and-effect relationship there may be, but it beats the crap out of Condi going over there and pissing everybody off even worse.
