The progressive liberal "Drinking Liberally" starts its first chapter in Dutchess county in Rhinecliff

Tonight marks the first gathering of Drinking Liberally Rhinecliff at The Rhinecliff Hotel 7-9pm

Gatherings will take place on the first Sunday of every month from 7:00pm - 9:00pm

Promoting Democracy one pint at a time.
Share your politics while you share a pitcher at your local progressive
drinking establishment. An informal gathering of like-minded, left-leaners who
may want to trade ideas, get more involved, or just enjoy each other’s
company. www.DrinkingLiberally.org 

What is Drinking Liberally?

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.
