[ACDP-Announce] Sunday, November 19, 2006

[Fred Hudson]

The following is an announcement that I thought was very timely due to the recent elections, and the shifts that occurred within the Bush administration immediately following (Rummy replacement, and the reliance on the "old guard" from the previous Bush administration).  It seems to me that many of you would enjoy it greatly, and I encourage you to attend.  It should be very timely and facinating to listen to Mr. Merry.  Hope you can work it in to your Sunday evening schedule next week.  

Thank you,   Fred

            PRESS RELEASE (for immediate release)                    

Charlottesville, VA, Nov. 1, 2006-"Military Preemption as Foreign Policy" 
will be the subject of a  free public lecture
by Robert W. Merry, President and Editor-In-Chief of
the Congressional Quarterly,  at 7 p.m., Sunday Nov.
19 in the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Church,
Unitarian-Universalist (TJMC), 717 Rugby Rd.

Mr. Merry's most recent book-"Sands of Empire:
Missionary Zeal, American Foreign Policy, and the
Hazards of Global Ambition"-was published in 2005.
 
Following three years in the Army, where he
served as a language-qualified, counter-espionage 
agent in West Germany, he obtained a Master's Degree
from Columbia University's Graduate Journalism School.

After beginning his career at the Denver Post, he
became a national political correspondent for the
National Observer. When that paper ceased
publication, Mr. Merry joined the Washington bureau of
the Wall Street Journal, where he spent two years as a
White House reporter. During this period he appeared
on various public affair TV shows, including Meet the
Press, Face the Nation, CNN's Newsmakers, Good Morning
America  and C-Span.

In 1987, Mr. Merry began with the Congressional
Quarterly as Managing Editor. He became President and
Publisher in January 1997.

This is the final TJMC Faith In Action
lecture/dialogue for this year. It is being held on
Sunday evening to encourage greater community
participation.
