Drinking Liberally 10/12: Free Screening of “Iraq for Sale” by Robert Greewald

UPDATE 10/13: We raised $122 for Iraq Veterans Against the War, and found ourselves thoroughly shocked by the greed and mendacity revealed in this film. Many thanks to all who attended and contributed so generously. And many thanks to the owner and staff at The Shanty for letting us tear up their patio, accomodating our needs so well, and being so attentive and hard-working.

Here is a trailer of the movie:

The movie will be screened at The Shanty on 4th Avenue and 9th Street. Screening will begin at full dark, likely about 7pm. Admission is free, but bring your cash, because we will be collecting donations for Iraq Veterans Against the War. And, of course, you’ll want to buy lots of beer (it will soften the blow of the unvarnished truth). Sandwiches will be provided courtesy of The Shanty, in addition to popcorn, but you are encouraged by the management to potluck your snacks and bring enough to share, like the well-socialized liberals you are.

There is high demand to see this film, so if you can, bring some lawn chairs, you might need them.
