Recently, Jim Matheson put up a website, Keep Utah Safe From Nukes:
“As Republican Senate candidates Lee and Bridgewater cavalierly endorse resumed nuclear testing, let’s be clear: Nuclear testing has left Utah a legacy of lies, betrayal, illness and death. It is both unsafe and unnecessary. Utah has been safe from nuclear testing since 1992, and we’re committed to keeping our air, water, land and families safe. In an age of reduced nuclear arsenals, no Utahn should suffer or die to re-prove the universally accepted fact that nuclear weapons are devastatingly powerful.”
Hard to believe Mathesone said that, let alone stuck it on the Internet over his name. Nice to see him supporting Utah, instead of the Republican Party. Let’s give him some positive reinforcement, before his spine wilts again:

Anticipatory liberals,

Before we get into the other stuff, we want to first tell you the big news we’ve been alluding to: Living Liberally has said “This is the place!” to hold the national Living Liberally conference! Chapter hosts from Drinking, Eating, Reading, Laughing, and Screening Liberally will be coming from all over the country to visit our city at the end of September and plan the next year of Living Liberally.

We’d like to form a committee of planners for this conference, so if you’re interested in helping us promote and plan this, let us know. Also if you know of any local businesses who’d be willing to sponsor food/drinks/space for the party, just reply to this email. Heather will be spearheading this effort.

Once again, this year we’ll be going to Salt Lake Acting Company’s hilarious cabaret, Saturday’s Voyeur. If you love good satire on Utah culture and current events, you should plan on joining us for this. We’ve got 4 tables reserved for the 7pm show on Sunday, July 11th, plus plenty of regular seating.

The tables will go to the first 16 who call and ask for them, so if you want a table call soon. When you tell them you’re with Drinking Liberally SLC, they’ll put you with the rest of us AND you get the tickets for $35 each, which is $9-$19 off regular price! Box office number is (801)363-7522.

We’ll also be having drinks and BBQ before the show, stay tuned for more info on that.

Our next meetup will be Friday, June 11th. We’ve invited the left-leaning candidates who will be going to primary to join us for another Meet & Drink. Those invited include Jim Matheson and Claudia Wright in US House District 2; Joel Briscoe and Anthony Kaye for Utah House District 25; and Cal Noyce and Arlyn Bradshaw for County Council 1. If you’re not sure who you’ll vote for in the primary, June 11th would be the time to talk to the candidates (at least those who can make it).

Odd week liberals,

Drinking Liberally SLC will be meeting tonight instead of our usual 4th Friday, but just for this month. We hope to see some of you that we don’t get to see on the even weeks!

The next meetup won’t be until June 11th, but we’ve invited the candidates who are going to the primary to join us for another meet & drink: Jim Matheson and Claudia Wright in US House District 2; Joel Briscoe and Anthony Kaye for Utah House District 25; and Cal Noyce and Arlyn Bradshaw for County Council 1. We’ll let you know as the event gets closer who of these candidates will be able to make it.

We will be attending Saturday’s Voyeur again this year, so if you haven’t bought your tickets yet, stay tuned for more details on how to get the Drinking Liberally discount for our group.

We still have some big news to announce soon, so stay tuned.

Hope to see you tonight at the Piper Down!

May liberals,

Well, after 2 Fridays with no Drinking Liberally (due to an extra friday last month), it’s time to once again do our regular Liberal drinking in the back room of the Piper Down from 6:30-9:30. So join us tomorrow night, where we’ll be discussing all the notable current events; there’s plenty to talk about.

For those who can’t make our 2nd & 4th Friday meetups because you have parental or work obligations, this month we’ll be meeting on the 3rd Friday instead of the 4th. So pencil it into your calendar and plan to join us next Friday.

Also, keep reading these emails as we’ve got some big news to announce soon!

See you all tomorrow and again next Friday!
