If you’ve seen this post at Firedoglake or were lucky enough to be at the Coffee with the Troops discussion in person, then you know that the vets on the panel asked us all to get out and be part of the movement that is trying end this war.
If you live near Reading, PA, or near Philly, you’ll have a great chance to do exactly that this Tuesday, August 28th at 6PM.
Please come out and be part of national Take a Stand Day.
In Reading:
Congressman Gerlach must hear your concerns about the Cost of War at Home and Abroad before he goes back to Washington.
Come to a multimedia Town Hall Forum to express your views and Take a Stand!

After four years of war, the American people have had enough. This Tuesday, we’re going to make Senator Specter finally take a stand.
SENATOR SPECTER, TAKE A STAND!

The “Take a Stand Campaign” is a nation-wide effort of Americans Against Escalation in Iraq (AAEI) to demand that members of Congress and the Senate take a stand with the 70% of Americans who want a safe and responsible end to Pres. Bush’s endless war policy in Iraq. Sponsored by: www.iraqcampaign.org
I think we should get everyone from Philly Drinking Liberally to go to the Specter Townhall before the usual meetup that night.
I’d especially love to see Brendan ask Specter a question.
This is an excellent idea.
We need people in Reading too. So if you know anyone out that way, please spread the word.
I sent out an announcement to everyone this afternoon.
I’ll try to be there but my kid is visiting, and he’s a lot more fun that that miserable cancer-ridden pile of shit cockroach called Specter.
Well, on the bright side, Specter won’t be there. He doesn’t do this sort of thing.
