Update: I just got word that we may have a mystery guest. I couldn’t get the details from Kendall so I guess we will just have to wait and see.
Lots going on in the world of Drinking Liberally. Washington’s own Jim McDermott will be blogging on Washblog after the State of the […]

January 29th, 2006 by Jimmy · 3 Comments
There is so much to write about… and I don’t feel like doing any of it. Hey! How about that Pelz win!
I think WNP #2 is heading for a meltdown. I gotta go to Walmart to watch this on the big screen TV’s…

DeBolt - it’s important that we tell the truth in politics
January 25th, 2006 by Jimmy · 6 Comments
As reported by Chris Mulick in today’s Tri-City Herald, it appears Richard Debolt is having a hard time with the truth.
Hey, um… Richard… the fantasy that an underhanded smear campaign with your fingerprints all over it, that has your collegues apologizing for it, that originated from your district had nothing to do with you? Is […]

Drinking Liberally - Tonight
January 24th, 2006 by Jimmy · 5 Comments
…and every Tuesday night at:
Who: You!
What: Tri-Cities Chapter of Drinking Liberally
When: Every Wednesday at 5:30
Where: Tuscany Lounge, 1515 George Washington Way Richland
And contrary to the latest Republican lie-campaign, this man will not be attending… because he doesn’t live in a swing district.

I am a little late on getting this info out. But this is yet another of the good things Democrats are doing in this community. I encourage one and all to show up for the cause!
Update: A reminder came into the comments that should be posted up front.

Iraq War - Are we complacent yet?
January 19th, 2006 by Jimmy · No Comments
Have you started to be complacent about the Bush Administration, the justification for, the ongoing Iraqi war and the subsequent insurgency that continues to kill soldiers and innocent people each day? Just in case, here is a reminder from Alterman. It is a good wrap-up of Bush’s bullshit. And is a […]

More on Party Chair
January 18th, 2006 by Jimmy · 19 Comments
I was a bit worried that my post here and on Washblog would devolve much as we have seen the discussion go elsewhere. And it looked like it was headed that way for a bit but has rebounded and looks like there is reasonable discussion. As I said before, it was getting a […]

After all the fun with the State Chair issue, I think it is time for a relaxing break. I think we should have a contest to see who can […]

Drinking Liberally - Changed to Tuesday
January 16th, 2006 by Jimmy · No Comments
Due to scheduling conflicts with other meetings, the Tri-Cities Chapter of Drinking Liberally is changed to every Tuesday at 5:30. This shouldn’t be a big deal as the vote was fairly split between Tuesday and Wednesday anyway. So be there… I will… to toss back a few!
Cheers!

Alito and the Post-Modernist age of Television Politics
January 14th, 2006 by Jimmy · No Comments
I know that Justin doesn’t troll for blogger support because… he told me so. But hey, when you start talking about holy-water-tears well… I am compelled to throw a link in that direction.
The Alito hearings were nothing but a show as far as I am concerned. I say fillibuster. […]

Open Thread - Sort of…
January 14th, 2006 by Jimmy · No Comments
I don’t get alot of comments and virtually no trolls so an open thread is kinda silly, so I will start it off with a question that might generate a comment or two.
At the new Tri-Cities Chapter of Drinking Liberally, who would you most like to see show up among our local representation? […]

Of Candidates and Consequences
January 12th, 2006 by Jimmy · 2 Comments
Across the state there is some dismay about the lack of name candidates (or no candidate at all) for both the 4th and 5th Congressional districts. Especially in light of the very promising Darcy Burner, former Microsoft Executive, and her candidacy against Dave Reichert in the 8th. And to put it bluntly, and […]
