An Epic Wine & Cheese Pairing
(absolutely no pun intended)
PAUL OGDEN FOR JUDGE
Saturday, April 7th @ 6pm
PAUL OGDEN FOR JUDGE
Saturday, April 7th @ 6pm
It is no secret that I am a huge fan of Paul Ogden's pure and big love of justice, the Indiana & American Constitutions, and more importantly the "populist" as he likes to call us on his courageous blog, Ogden On Politics.
I contend that there are two brands of barrister... those that choose law because of their pure love of justice, and the cretins who choose the law profession to loophole it for profit, power, and prestige. Allow me to offer that there is no sin of profit, power, or prestige when accomplished by honor. And of course, Paul is an honorable fellow.
There are twelve candidates running for judge and ten openings, so Paul’s chances are very good. The money we raise will be used to publicize Paul's message (and his whistleblowers’ blog) directly to liberty minded citizens who will vote in the Republican primary in May.
Our wine steward and bartender for the evening is celebrated bartender, Denny Thomas, who served at The Glass Chimney for 27 years until it closed last year.

Will there be any commercially-brewed beer (e.g., Bud Lite or, as I know you like to refer to it "swill") available for those of us who are not oenophiles? If not, I will be happy to provide our own.
LOL! It's wine and cheese, not beer and cheese. And if you want to bring beer, I'll make a place in the fridge for it and will appreciate both your company and support for Paul!
