A couple centuries ago, they called them "Press Gangs" as they went around the bars rounding up "volunteers".

Dems Giving Away Tickets to Obama's Speech
You need to be at Manuel's Tavern by noon Friday.
Dunwoody Democrats have a chance to see President Barack Obama's acceptance speech in person at next week's Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, NC.
The DeKalb Democratic Party sent out this message Thursday night.
DO YOU WANT TO GO TO CHARLOTTE AND BE THERE IN PERSON FOR THE PRESIDENTS"S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH?
In Atlanta: Manuel's Tavern, 602 N Highland Avenue NE, Atlanta, GA 30307
In Macon: Bibb County Democratic Party, 835 Forsyth St. Suite A, Macon GA 31201
Here's the rules:
Everyone who is at Manuel's Tavern or the Bibb County Democratic Party by noon is eligible for two tickets. Arrive early if you want, but it won't give you a better chance to win. Just be there by 12 noon!
If less than 50 people arrive, everyone will get a pair! If more than 50 folks arrive, we will do a random drawing to determine our winners.
There is no cost involved. We're not selling the tickets, we're giving them away.
Since we're not selling tickets, you can't sell them either! If you sell your tickets to someone else, they will be deactivated.
For planning purposes, we expect that President Obama will speak at 8pm on Thursday. To insure that you are in your seat for the speech, you should arrive at the stadium that afternoon. There will be strict security at the event.
Your trip to Charlotte to see the President's historic speech begins tomorrow.
I understand these were Hillary’s tickets.
One would need to be drunk to listen to a speech by that idiot.
Dear Obamaloon, go away. Far away. Forever.
Including 20,000 Muslims meeting in Charlotte???
LOL... that’s hilarious. Giving away tix at a bar?
YEA; I WOULD HAVE TO BE DRUNK TO LISTEN TO THAT PILE OF DONKEY SH*T!!!!!!!!
Only a Democrat would be in a bar before noon
I would almost be tempted to go to one of those bars and get tickets just to keep someone else from going to the DNC convention! :-)
Ha! THAT’S rich!
No one wants to sit still for that stuff anymore!
A couple centuries ago, they called them "Press Gangs" as they went around the bars rounding up "volunteers".
Get some of those free tickets
Find the scuzziest "people" you can and give them the ticket.
Tell them there will be free booze and food.
Kick back and watch the fun.
Next they’ll be going to cemeteries...................
Only problem Drill, is that you probably won’t be able to find people scuzzier than those that already support the ‘rats. Think “occupiers”. :-)
Here's a look at one of those bars.
by NOON?
YOU CAN SEE THE NON WORKING CROWD THEY ARE SHOOOTING FOR!
**************
FYI Only....
Manuel's is a longstanding fixture in the local Atlanta-DeKalb political scene...
Just sayin' context...
Isn’t there a college football game on next Thursday? Cowboys/Giants will take care of Wednesday night. Some dvd’s will cover Tuesday.
The best part is that nobody wants them, they would rather drink beer.
Ticket would be good for not attending or for hecklers !
Manuel's Tavern is the DeKalb County Democratic headquarters.
It's a bar at the corner of North Ave. and North Highland that was owned for years by Manuel Maloof, the longtime chairman of the county commission and local Democratic force.
He was an old-fashioned ward heeler, and he would be astonished and annoyed at the mess his successors have made of the Democratic Party.
