Drinking Liberally Photo

February 2, 2007

By Mike Lawson

Last night at Drinking Liberally, Susan Freeze snapped a photo of a group of us:

Drinking Liberally is an informal, inclusive progressive social group. Raise your spirits while you raise your glass, and share ideas while you share a pitcher. Drinking Liberally gives like-minded, left-leaning individuals a place to talk politics. You don’t need to be a policy expert and this isn’t a book club – just come and learn from peers, trade jokes, vent frustration and hang out in an environment where it’s not taboo to talk politics.

Bars are democratic spaces – you talk to strangers, you share booths, you feel the bond of common ground. Bring democratic discourse to your local democratic space – build democracy one drink at a time.

While drinking liberally, always remember to drink responsibly, and make liberal use of designated drivers. Drinking and driving is reckless and irresponsible, like a neocon war or corporatist tax cut. Liberals, don’t do it.

Join Us!

Every Thursday, 8:30 pm onward

I love Trung there in the back on the right side.
And something tells me Susan didn’t take this one, since she’s there in the foreground on the left side. Was it Hanna?
Perhaps someone was drinking a bit too liberally last night?

How did Trung sneak in behind me? I can’t wait to see the look on his face when Tom wins the Supervisor seat on Tuesday.

I really wanted to meet Trung. Mike, you are such a tease!

Can someone please do a “from left to right….”

I promise I will make it one of these nights and will buy the group a round.

Alicia calls Mike a tease?
Interesting.
Nothing more to say.
