Book Clubs and Fundraisers Tomorrow! |
 |
The Seminal, while primarily an online operation, loves to throw events in the DC area. We’ve got two going on tomorrow for those who care to join!
First, we are hosting a book salon with Firedoglake and DC Drinking Liberally. Come meet Pulitzer Prize winning author Eric Lichtblau and discuss his new book, Bush’s Law: The Remaking of American Justice.
The salon is going down at Timberlakes at 1726 Connecticut Ave NW (Dupont Circle Metro). Happy hour starts at 6:30, with a talk and book signing to follow from 7:30 - 9. More information here.
The second event is being put on by Blue Catapult, author Ian Fried’s PAC. Here’s the blurb:
Join us and the Woman’s National Democratic Club to meet and greet Democratic challenger Frank Kratovil on Tuesday, May 13, at the WNDC HQ (1526 New Hampshire Ave, NW), on the corner of Q and New Hampshire, 2 blocks East of the DuPont North Metro Exit.
Tickets are only $35, food and open bar are included, and all the money raised goes to supporting this great challenger!
The event starts at 6:30. More information here.
All are welcome at either event! Invite your friends!
My suggestion, do both! Hit up the Blue Catapult fundraiser at 6:30, then walk a few short blocks over to the book salon and catch the end of the question and answer period.
We’ll see you tomorrow night.
Kratovil for congress.
People should take a close look at the 1st. district congressional race in Maryland. This is going to be one of the most exciting in the country. Frank Kratovil is going up against the most conservative republicans you can imagine.
Andrew Harris is a Tom Delay type neocon. Harris believes abortions should not be available even in cases of rape or incest. He receives much of his funding from the Club for Growth.
Kratovil has a good shot at taking back a seat held by republicans for the last 18 years.
