Host a house party on Uncovered: The Whole Truth about the Iraq War
Dear MoveOn member,
We've asked you to call your Senators, write your local newspaper, and visit your Congressman. Today, we're asking you to party.
With your help, on Sunday, December 7th, we'll hold thousands of house parties across the country to screen the new documentary Uncovered: The Whole Truth about the Iraq War. The documentary clearly describes, in the words of experts and former intelligence officials, how President Bush and his administration manipulated evidence to take our country to war. We've been to a few screenings, and it's a perfect centerpiece for a gathering. At 56 minutes, it's short yet substantial, and it brings up a lot of questions that make for good discussion.
The parties will be brought together through a huge cross-country conference call. At 5:30p PST / 8:30p EST, party attendees will be able to dial in to a call featuring director Robert Greenwald, the MoveOn team, and guests from parties all over the country. You'll also be able to submit questions for Mr. Greenwald and the team online.
This'll be fun, but it's also strategic. Coming together, we'll strengthen the MoveOn community. This is also a great way to get the word out – you can invite friends and co-workers who aren’t yet part of MoveOn.
Can you host a party on December 7th? Sign up now at: http://action.moveon.org/meet/parties.html
As a host, you have the option of just inviting your friends and colleagues, or allowing MoveOn members in your area to attend -- our software makes it easy to do either. We'll also provide you with a simple step-by-step guide to putting on a party.
(Since the MoveOn.org Voter Fund is a partisan, 527 organization, we need to remind everyone that 501(c)3 non-profit organizations, such as schools, libraries, and many clubs, should not support parties with staff time or resources. This could be viewed as an in-kind contribution to the Voter Fund, which could be against the law. Of course, members and leaders of those organizations can attend as individuals.)
If you've already ordered a copy of Uncovered, we'll make sure you receive it well before December 7th. If you haven't yet ordered a copy, you can get one now for $15 (including shipping) through the movie's distributors:

Here's a little more about Uncovered:
MoveOn.org doesn't usually sponsor documentary films, but this movie is a really important one. It's built around interviews with over 20 intelligence and military experts, many of whom are speaking out for the first time. True to the MoveOn ethic, director Robert Greenwald lets the facts speak for themselves. And the results are pretty shocking.
Uncovered combines expert interviews with extensive research to go behind the walls of government. Interviewees include:
Joe Wilson, the former Ambassador to Iraq who exposed that the famous "16 words" in Bush's State of the Union address about uranium in Niger were false. In retaliation, senior White House officials appear to have blown the cover of Wilson's wife, an undercover CIA agent.
John Dean, White House lawyer for President Nixon during the Watergate scandal.
Rand Beers, former Special Assistant to the President and Senior Director for combating terrorism.
David Albright, a physicist, nuclear weapons expert, and former weapons inspector with the IAEA Action team.
Rt. Hon. Clare Short, the British Member of Parliament who recently resigned her position as Tony Blair's secretary for international development because Blair did not support a UN coalition to rebuild Iraq. It's a powerful film, and it'll be a great centerpiece for a house party. We hope you can join us on December 7th in parties around the country. Sign up now, at: http://action.moveon.org/meet/parties.html
Sincerely, --Carrie, Eli, James, Joan, Noah, Peter, Wes, and Zack The MoveOn.org Team November 19th, 2003

I absolutely must do this. My friends mingling with these treasonous dope-smoking sodomites ought to be a sight to behold.
No thank you. It'll just draw out the liberal cockroaches. It's not a good way to keep human friends.
Excellent read. Iraq sees Bush as a hero. We've asked you to call your Senators, write your local newspaper, and visit your Congressman and let them know.
