Valley Democrats United is proud to host noted progressive journalist/commentator Robert Scheer, Thursday evening September 18, for a discussion of his new book The Pornography of Power, hailed as “provocative, literate, a great read…” and “a political page-turner.” Having covered schemers, cronies, fearmongers, cabals, and military-industrial skullduggery of all sorts for 50 years, there’s no one better than this reporter to spot a crook or a genuine political champion. Join us for Scheer’s tale of how neo-cons and defense contractors-- abetted by Democrats!-- exploited September 11 to turn a declining arms industry into a bloated boondoggle with no limits on spending. And we'll learn what we can do about it. And we’ll get his inimitable take on whatever political outrages headline the news just a month-and-a-half before election day.

Join VGFD for our September meeting. Our guest will be author and columnist Robert Scheer who will be speaking about his book The Pornography of Power.We will also have our club election for the 2009 officers and executive board. About The Pornography of Power: Scheer examines the expansion of our military presence throughout the world, our insane nuclear strategy, the immorality of corporations profiting in Iraq, and the arrogance of our foreign policy. Although Scheer is a liberal, his view echoes that of former Republican president General Dwight Eisenhower, who, in his farewell speech to the American people, spoke prophetically about need to guard against the growing influence of the military-industrial complex. In George W. Bush's America, politicians like Ike and Richard Nixon seem like prudent centrists. The views of libertarians, liberals, and pacifists are often overlooked or ignored by America's mainstream media. The Pornography of Power is the culmination of a respected journalist's efforts to change the terms of debate. At a time when many are exploiting fears of terrorist attacks and only a few national leaders are willing to advocate cuts in defense spending, nuclear disarmament, and restrained use of American force, Robert Scheer has written a manifesto for enlightened reform. Start: 6:30 pm
End: 9:00 pm
