Greetings, all!
The Blogmother has asked me to update you, My Fellow Sympathetic Americans, about the fun that my little group has been having, and to invite you along. I write, of course, about Drinking Liberally Boise. The nation's third chapter of this legendary group (there are now almost 300 chapters!), we're Boise's best venue for kvetching safely to pals old and new about anything from anti-gravity legislation to canned salmon to the political wisdom of chaining oneself to a hunk of granite. Plus, we like beers (and soda, water, wine and Manhattans over ice) and feature 30% better looks, 40% more brains, and 75% more snark than your average Idaho political get-together (especially since the average Idaho political get-together is filled with nutty conservatives).
Our regular meetups are every third Wednesday at Pengilly's. Sign up for regular (but not abundant) email reminders in the upper left corner of this page: drinkingliberally.org.
The big news? For the first time in our four year history, we're sponsoring Debate Parties! Join us for the VP debate this THURSDAY, October 2 at 6:30 PM in the bowels of the City Grill, 199 N. 8th St.
The response to our first ever Drink-N-Groan Debate Party was amazing! Dozens of optimistic liberals met last week at the City Grill to compare notes, exclaim "I can see Canada from my HOUSE!" and admire our really hot AND smart Presidential candidate. Check out images of last week's shenanigans here.
You KNOW this Thursday's VP debate will be the debate of the season. We're already wagering how long it will take after the debate for the cries of sexism to come out from the McSame camp. Any takers?
Before the VP Debate, please join us for a FUN Langhorst/Woods get-together!
If you attend only ONE fund raiser over the next 5 weeks...Make it this one.
Join us for drinks & snacks with Ada County Commissioner Paul Woods and Commission Candidate David Langhorst!
Date: This Thursday, October 2, 2008
Time: 5-7pm
Location: The Modern Bar
1314 W. Grove St. , Boise, ID
Questions? 208-850-9871
Suggested donation at door: $25
We are proud to support Paul and David in their efforts and hope that you will join us to hear about their vision for the future of Ada County.
Then...if you aren't already going to the Drinking Liberally VP Watch Party, stick around after the Woods/Langhorst event and join us for a Vice Presidential DEBATE WATCH PARTY at the Modern Hotel!
