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. For more info, www.valleydemsunited.com
