10th Anniversary Toast!
Submitted by Kathleen Thompson on Tue, 05/14/2013 - 1:04pm.10th Anniversary Toast!
Last weekend, Drinking Liberally hosts from around the nation gathered in New York to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Drinking Liberally. It was right after the Iraq War, in the spring of 2003, when a few friends started gathering to share ideas while they shared a pitcher or two. Now, in hundreds of cities, tens of thousands of liberals consider Drinking Liberally members their friends, family and community.
Kathleen was invited to help open the event and speak about our DL Mid-Cities chapter. She told the hundreds of attendees about being "critical thinkers" in a state that devalues education and science and about our great DL community here in North Texas. Professor Joseph Stiglitz, Nobel prize-winning economist and author, and a committed voice for a progressive economic vision was the honoree.
Join us on Thursday night and toast to the first decade of our organization!

April 2013 - United We Stand
Cheers, DL Mid-Cities
On days like this it is worth remembering that though we are a nation of conservatives and liberals, Republicans and Democrats, native born and immigrant, we all experience pain, loss and suffering at points in our lives that remove the distinctions that separate us and bind us together as one.
So head on over to Los Jimadores this Thursday where we will remember those who lost lives and loved ones today, but also affirm that we will always be Americans first above all other labels.

March DL
Submitted by Doug Weathers on Mon, 03/11/2013 - 5:40pm.March 2013
Drinking Liberally will be celebrating St. Patrick's Day a little late at our favorite Irish watering hole O'Los Jimadores! They will have greenish colored margaritas. Come join fellow liberals and progressives as we talk the March madness of sequester, filibusters and politics. Thanks to Sen. Rand Paul and Attorney General Eric Holder, we have been assured there will be NO drone strikes! So now you really have no excuse not to join us. See ya there.

Cheers, DL Mid-Cities
Its time again for loquacious lefties of the liberal persuasion to gather at Los Jimadores and solve the world's problems. Wether its a solution to the sequester or dodging the debt ceiling, come and share your thoughts with other like minded people this Thursday from 6:30pm.
Looking forward to seeing you there!

Over the cliff we go!

Cheers, DL Mid-Cities
Happy New Year and Congratulations! You officially survived the fiscal cliff. Or did you? Don't look too hard at your first pay check of 2013. Guess they weren't that averse to raising taxes on the middle class after all. The 83rd Legislative Session is underway and Rick Perry's priorities sure aren't ours.
So head on over to DL this Thursday for some commiseration, conversation and contemplation.
