Greg Palast advance screening and conf. call
date: 09/12/04 07:00 PM
location: Ashton's, 314 East Howard, Decatur, GA 30030

Please join us for a special pre-release screening of the new film from journalist Greg Palast. "Bush Famly Fortunes". Not scheduled for wide release until 9/28, Georgia for Democracy is pleased to be working with Mr Palast and Democracy for America to offer this special FREE pre-release screening. The film further uncovers the financial dealings over several generations of the Bush family. Music by Moby.

"Much of the guts for Moore's opening screed on how Bush stole the 2000 election came from investigative reporter Greg Palast, whose own book, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy, has fast become a cult fave." - Village Voice.

A screening at 410 14th Street in Midtown Atlanta is also offered the same night. Space is limited at both venues, so be sure to RSVP so you don't miss this special event!

Not sure if you can come? Choose "maybe" on the RSVP page. That will help us plan the party.

For more information about "Bush Family Fortunes" and Greg Palast, please go to www.gregpalast.com

Copies of the DVD will also be available for purchase the night of the screenings.

Special thanks to Ashton's for their ongoing support and willingness to host these free screenings. Be sure to check out their yummy ice cream and delicious sandwiches.

UPDATE: Great news! Through the generosity of Mr Palast and the great work of his staff, we are pleased to announce that following the film we will have a CONFERENCE CALL with Greg Palast!

2. We've got 50 copies available for sale.
Just saw it tonight. Pretty good. Not much new for us DUers, but it'll be great to get the name 'James Bath' out there in public, as well as the binLaden/Carlyle/Bush connection.

The other thing is, the DVD is also a DVD/rom, and supposedly all these documents that Palast has acquired on on there, but I don't have a dvd/rom player at home, so I haven't seen these yet.

Anyway, come to one of the events if you can, even just to pick up a dvd. $10. What a deal.
