Outfoxed at UHCL, and other announcements from Morrison Campaign
CL: OUTFOXED: Film Screening
Description: Clear Lake and other counties welcome:


UHCL will screen the documentary film 'Outfoxed.’ Taking on Fox: Seven days a week, 24 hours a day, Fox News Channel turns Republican talking points into news headlines. Now "Uncovered" director Robert Greenwald — working with a group of Fox-monitoring MoveOn members — has put together a documentary film called Outfoxed that exposes Fox for what it is: partisan spin, not news.

Go to http://www.moveon.org/front/ to:
* Read the complaint filed with the FTC .
* Download a printable copy of the petition and sign up others

Admission: free

University of Houston-Clear Lake, 2700 Bay Area Blvd, Room 2512 of the Bayou Bldg., Houston

* Please no outside food/drinks. Bring a few bucks and buy items there to support UHCL.

Date: Friday, August 6, 2004 at 7:00 PM

1. Lisa we met Richard Morrison here in Austin tonight
He was great! I am so excited about Morrison. If we can raise some money for this man and he can get on TV and get his message across, DeLay is toast.

You may be seeing a caravan of volunteers come up from Austin in Sept. They were signing us up to come help.

2. Yes, I heard he was going to Austin last night.
Did you meet Melissa too? She is his volunteer coordinator, and a friend of mine from my Deaniac days. We welcome all the help we can get! Their first poll looks really good! Delay support is weak, but name recognition is high. The more people we can get to help with name recognition, the better!!! Plus, we are targeting neighborhoods with high populations of Democrats to do door-to-door voter registration.

Hope to meet you in September!:-)
