Bush Campaign Throwing 'Party for the President'
By Jimmy Moore
Talon News
April 9, 2004

The Bush campaign is organizing a "National Party for the President Day" on Thursday, April 29 at 8:00 p.m. EST to allow supporters to gather together in unity behind President George W. Bush.

"Across the country, supporters of President Bush will gather in homes, restaurants and community centers to stand up for our President," Bush campaign manager Ken Mehlman wrote in an e-mail to Bush supporters recently.

The free events are scheduled to take place in cities across the country, including in personal homes and at local restaurants.

The Bush campaign has even set up a special surprise for supporters who are able to get 5 or more people to attend their party.

Mehlman said their party "will include a conference call with a senior [Bush] campaign leader" at 8:30 p.m. EST.

He added, "This special guest will answer questions and deliver a political briefing on the progress of the campaign."

Describing the purpose of the "National Party for the President Day," Mehlman explained it "is a simple, volunteer event that brings together local friends and neighbors who support the President."

People who decide to host one of these parties will receive a package of materials from the Bush campaign, including an exclusive video about the campaign, bumper stickers, miscellaneous campaign materials and a signed letter from Bush.

"These fun, informal events will help grow the President's strong base of support in local communities throughout the country and bring the President one step closer to victory in November," Mehlman concluded.

He continued, "We have a hard fight in the days ahead and the President needs your help."

Even Vice President Dick Cheney is encouraging people to join him in the "National Party for the President Day" to cheer on the president to victory in November.

"On that day, I will be joining thousands of parties across the country on a live conference call to talk about the clear choice voters face this November and the importance of the grassroots effort that will lead us to victory," Cheney revealed. "The President and I are counting on grassroots activists, like you, to act on the commitment we all share."

Cheney said he will try to call as many of the parties as possible on April 29.

The goal of the Bush campaign is to have 2004 parties commemorating President Bush on April 29. At press time, there were 2,046 parties planned for that day and nearly 4,000 overall.

LOL!
It is...
...but ROD is paying for the room, and some light refreshments.

He is asking all who are able to chip in $10 to help cover his costs...

...but helping out financially with this Party is NOT required of attendees. :o)

$10 is well worth it. Hell, I'd give more if I were going, but 5 pm on a work day is hard. I am gonna go to my local one....and then Dennis Quaid & the Sharks are playing nearby....it should be a great night.

You still need to REGISTER your party with the GeorgeWBush.com website, though...
...so that you get an official "party pack" - with the video, and an "access code" for the Dick Cheney conference call.

From a search parties near for ZIP code "90210" :

As I wrote to ANOTHER FRiend:
We would love to see everybody at OUR Party in Manhattan Beach, but it might also be a good idea for you to find a LOCAL party.

As I understand it, this "Party for the President" on 4/29 is intended to be only the FIRST of MANY monthly grassroots meetings - from now until the election.

They are designed to energize local GOP activists.

I intend to help focus "Rod's Party" in Manhattan Beach getting out the vote in the South Bay, and on winning the LOCAL election of Greg Hill for Assembly.

Randy Herrst will also be at this party, as will FReeper Jessamine, but I have recommended that many of my OTHER FRiends go to parties closer to where they live; i.e.

Genevieve's Party in Beverly Hills,
Rabid Dog's Party in Ventura,
the OCYR's Party in Costa Mesa,
feinswinesuksass' Party at her local pub,
- [and Cinnamon Girl's "kosher" party in Beverly Hills?]
Whatever you guys decide is O.K. with me. :o)
Please take LOTS OF DIGITAL PICTURES, though - so that we can SHARE them here.

So we can only hear the Vice President if we have our party at 5pm? No one would be able to come so early.

Gro a previous post:
The call can be heard LIVE at 5pm Pacific Daylight Time.
(8 pm East Coast time)

- or -

You can listen to a RE-BROADCAST of the call at 7pm Pacific Daylight Time.

Whichever way you choose, join the party and help bring President Bush one step closer to victory.

And don't miss this exclusive opportunity to hear a campaign briefing direct from the Vice President.

Sincerely,

Ken Mehlman
Campaign Manager

The folks back east need their "beauty sleep" - this is a WORK day evening. :o)

These 'Meetups' are a great way to connect with people who share your conservative values. I am involved with two locally....one Pro-Bush & one Conservative.

Make sure you get a venue that is compatible with discussions.

We were meeting in a local Pub that had a trivia contest every time we met....very annoying with he loudspeakers blasting....so we changed to a quieter restaurant location.

Check out several towns near your home and you may find that there are already groups meeting.
