Meet Barbara Ann Radnofsky at Oil Patch Democrats Meeting Thursday
The Oil Patch Democrats cordially invite all independents, Republicans, Greens, Librarians--OK, Libertarians--and otherwise politically interested people to greet and meet the Democratic candidate for United States Senate, Barbara Ann Radnofsky (BAR) this Thursday, April 20th at Chatters (140 S. Heights).
When talking about her possibly coming to talk to our group back in November of last year, BAR said she would be delighted to meet with us, but she had one request: that we open our Democratic group up to other political folks as well. Since I do not see the Green, Libertarian or even Democratic candidate easily beating out an incumbent Republican, it makes sense to open our meeting for others to get to know the Democratic candidate. You are hereby invited and encouraged to come. I explained to her that our group is always open to former-Democrats, prairie-dog Democrats, moderate and level-headed Republicans, and others, and she immediately agreed to stop by. We hope you will do the same. I know you will enjoy hearing what BAR has to offer all Texans, and, perhaps you may even consider joining our group as we continue our quest for a "reality-based energy policy."
Generally our meetings are on the third Thursday of each month. In addition to a political speaker or candidate, we also like to have a technical presentation to better educate ourselves about the issues and the science on which they depend. Should you chose to join us on Thursday, April 20, you will also be rewarded by a talk from Dick Viebig, CPA and distinguished Rice University lecturer on the effects of the present tax law on the common man. Since this past Monday was the big tax day, I think this talk will be of interest to everyone.
To finish out the evening Dr. Christine Ehlig-Economides will give us an update on our Energy Policy initiative being conducted by the Oil Patch Democrats. Anyone concerned about the price of gas to the availability of future energy sources has a direct involvement in this effort.
The meeting begins at 6:30 PM, this Thursday, April 20th at Chatter's Cafe, 140 S. Heights on the west side of Heights between Allen Pkwy. and Washington. Our first speaker will be Barbara Ann Radnofsky at 7:00 PM for a quick look at the issues on which she will be campaigning (Barbara has another commitment for later this evening).
Please come and enjoy meeting with some progressive, reality-based energy folks.
