MRRMAC is using this event in order to facilitate discussion, both pro and con, about the issues raised in the film. In other words, for our part, this is an educational rather than a partisan event. In particular, my interest in the event stemmed from the promise of being able to have a live discussion with the filmmaker via telephone after the screening. Someone other than me listed the event on the Move On web site but I welcome this extra publicity along with the local notices (The Scarlet, for example) of the screening. I hope you will attend the screening and participate in the discussion afterwards.
Of course, it's just a coincidence this screening coincides with the moveon.org National House Party. Riiiiight.
Anyway, I've contacted our chancellor to ask him to tell the film theater to move the screening off campus. If he won't, I'm going to contact the state Republican chairman. Stay tuned.
Take this issue to the local conservative talk radio hosts in your area as well as higher ups at the university and your congressmen.
In addition since it says that it is meant to foster conversation "pro and con" about the "facts" in the film, be prepared with a large group to ask tough questions and point out blatent falsehoods. Prepare for the screening like you would any organized debate. Also you may ask who the university is planning to bring in to take the contrary position. Can't have a biased invite list after all...
Great freepin' job. Good luck getting the vermin off University owned property.
