Libertarian libations in Birmingham


The Tun Tavern hosted George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and the Continental Congress

What do you get when you mix alcohol with the politics of freedom? An argument can be made that we owe our Republic not only to a lot of bright and brave people, but also to a lot of booze.

In order to bring out freedom fighter in all of us, as well as to provide some networking opportunities and just plain fun, we've now opened the Birmingham branch of Liberty on the Rocks.

The first Birmingham event will be held this Tuesday at the J.Clyde.  Here are the pertinent details:

Our first event will be Tuesday the 19th at 7pm at J. Clyde's on Cobb Lane! Please invite as many folks as you can to get the Birmingham Chapter of LOTR off to a good start and to make our very special guests, the Motorhome Diaries crew of Jason [Talley], Pete [Eyre] and Adam [Mueller] feel right at home here in Bama.

For those not following the Motorhome Diaries, here's an overview of their recent encounter with the police in Mississippi.  I'm sure that hearing Jason and Pete describe their experiences will prove quite interesting.

While I'm sure there will be many toasts to Free the Hops and the entire Motorhomes Diaries crew on Tuesday night, I rather doubt folks will be tipping back their glasses to salute State Senator Hank Erwin.  To be sure, the only salute Erwin is likely to receive will be a one-fingered one.

America is in trouble and it's time to invoke the spirit of the Green Dragon.  See you at the J. Clyde on Tuesday.

    Do you have to be a libertarian to come drink? :)

    Or maybe I should ask, "If you get drunk with a room full of Libertarians, will you become one through osmosis?"

    Karen, come on down. The more the merrier.

    As to the latter question, we'll just have to see about that. :)
