Attend or Host a House Party

Move On Dot Org ^ | 12.2.2003 | MoveOn

[AdA$tra]

Right now, there are 2,308 parties planned.

On the evening of December 7th, 2003, thousands of people around the country will gather to watch and discuss the new documentary Uncovered: The Whole Truth about the Iraq War. Together, we'll strengthen the MoveOn community, get the truth out, and raise some money to make sure that people in key battleground states know the real story about how we went to war.

"I live just south of Indianapolis and there are only 4 parties within a 20-mile area"

Dang! No Moveon parties within 50 miles of me here in Missouri. (This is Bush Country) LOL!!

[TheSpottedOwl]

Man I can't believe all the house parties around my area. It would be kind of fun to show up and drink all their booze ;-)

Anyone know what an "upper decker" is?

I do. I've only done it twice - once to someone I really disliked, and once to a relative ;0)

[squidly]

Whole truth? Nobody knows the whole truth. The Kay Report still hasn't come out, just to name one thing. Whole truth my ass.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Should have known it's defined quite well online LOL

Ahhhhhh..............

Freedom of political speech as our founders intended.

It's a beautiful thing, huh?

[prairiebreeze]

While there are several to chose from in the area (a couple being hosted by local politicians) the ones that are closest to me both specify that they want to talk with others "who feel the same way about this war and this administration".

I believe they'd all be very surprised to hear my opinions of both. Bwahaha

I look forward to reading the accounts of Freepers who attend one of these...functions. As for me, I chose to stick with my regular plans of caroling with my church to nursing home residents and shut-ins. MUCH more satisfying effort IMO.

POLK/BURNETT (3 registered participants) Burnett County Government Center Siren, WI Bring a friend. It's time the truth be known. Friday, December 5, 06:00 PM

This is from their website.

Should I call the Justice Department, or will you folks help?

[cmsgop]

I wonder if Protest Warrior is on this. This is gonna be a young crowd I think.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Yup. Young crowd. I'm too damn old to be doing Upper-deckers now... ;0)

[July 4th]

That's terrible. I love it!

[cmsgop]

Looks like about 300 peeps attending in the Seattle Area and 2 parties on Mercer Island, I think I know a SGT there (tee hee)

I'm not 100% supportive of infiltrating. I think we all realize that this group is being monitored. Remember the articles? FBI starting to watch the anti war supporters? I would not want to be affiliated with this group.

I think that infiltrating is probably not a good idea, but FBI or govt surveillance is not a concern here.

The FBI is NOT going to be attending or monitoring these things unless they have specific reasons to believe that something other than simply political discourse is happening. (Click here for a thread with story about FBI denial of allegations about spying on political non-criminal activities.)

Are Mennonites Liberal? My neighbor is one.

[A Citizen Reporter]

HAHA, Well I've got about 6 in my 20 mile zone in MO! Most have about 2 participants signed up. This is hilarious! Some parties even "advertise" the size of the TV to be viewed on and the repast to be served........"light supper, a 32 inch TV"!

[Diva Betsy Ross]

The one closest to me is being held on a college campus,
I would like to know if it is being shown with tax payer's money... probably.

[Miss Marple]

One of the four in my area advertises that they will provide chili and crackers, and suggests that you bring your own beer. HA!

Interestingly, 3 are on the northside of Indy (liberal territory) and one is at the college town south of me. MY township has NONE!

[Cboldt]

Man I can't believe all the house parties around my area. It would be kind of fun to show up and drink all their booze ;-)

You'd be disappointed. These are the "take off your shoes, no smoke smell on the coat, no booze" liberals. I did a "w/in 50 miles of 04011" search and laughed my butt off.

[rwfromkansas]

depends on what branch, but the ones I am thinking of are very liberal and pacifist.
